Hexanoic Acid

Hexanoic acid (also known as Caproci acid), is the carboxylic acid derived from hexane with the general formula C5H11COOH. It is a colorless oily liquid with an odor that is fatty, cheesy, waxy, and like that of goats or other barnyard animals. The primary use of hexanoic acid is in the manufacture of its esters for artificial flavors, and in the manufacture of hexyl derivatives, such as hexylphenols. Hexanoic acid belongs to medium chain triglycerides (MCT) that are widely used as a nutrition supplement that added to foods, drugs and cosmetics.

Product Performance

Our AECOCHEM Hexanoic acid isn't just an ordinary oily liquid; it boasts two incredibly useful "little tricks"! First, it's "olfactory sensitive"—even a concentration of 0.0006 ppm can release the sweet aroma of cheese mixed with coconut oil. When adding flavorings to cookies and beverages, a small amount is enough, saving on raw material costs and preventing the aroma from becoming too strong or cloying. Second, it has "MCT properties"—as a member of the medium-chain triglyceride family, it's absorbed by the body much faster than ordinary ingredients when added to nutritional supplements, making it particularly suitable for sports supplements or elderly nutrition products. Not to mention, its freezing point is ≥4.5℃, so it won't clump when stored in southern winters; it's ready to use immediately when formulating, maximizing efficiency!


Multi-industry applications

AECOCHEM Hexanoic acid isn't just a raw material for rubber and plastics; it's a versatile ingredient used across multiple industries! In the food industry, it's used as an ester in artificial flavorings, giving cookies, candies, and beverages a natural sweetness that's more authentic than regular flavorings. In the cosmetics industry, it can be used as a raw material to complement other ingredients, making it gentle and non-irritating. Not to mention, it's also a member of the medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), added to nutritional supplements to help replenish energy, and even used in the pharmaceutical field. Of course, in the rubber and plastics industry, it's used as an additive to improve product performance—truly a "multi-purpose ingredient"!
