Pine Oil is a derivative of turpentine obtained by steam distillation of the species Pinus. Pine Oil has a strong piny odor and is miscible with alcohol. Pine Oil contains alpha-terpineol plus other cyclic terpene alcohols and terpene hydrocarbons.

Terpineol is a monoterpene alcohol mixture typically derived from the hydration of alpha-Pinene or Gum Turpentine. It is not a single, pure isomer but rather a stable combination of various isomers, including alpha-, beta-, and gamma-terpineol, with alpha-terpineol being its primary and most representative constituent. This product commonly appears as a colourless to pale yellow, viscous, transparent liquid, emitting a pleasant lilac-like fragrance complemented by pine, floral, or citrus notes.

Terpineol is naturally found in pine oil, lavender oil, orange leaf oil, neroli oil and other plant oils. α-terpineol, β-terpineol, γ-terpineol, and terpinen-4-ol are four isomers of terpineol. α-terpineol is the major component.

Terpineol is a viscous liquid with pine like and clove like odor, but is easy to crystallize.

There are two methods for preparing terpineol. The two-step preparation process is to use α-pinene as raw material to produce terpineol through hydration under acidic conditions. The one-step method is to directly prepare terpineol by hydration reaction.

Terpineol is widely used in fragrance formulation, especially in soaps and synthetic detergents.

85% Terpineol has high purity can kill germs and is used as a disinfectant in cleaning formulas. Click to learn about cleaning solution.

Terpineol Electric Grade is specially designed as a cleaning agent. It has ultra-low moisture content and special removing flux solder from the printed circuit board surface.

Terpineol MU Grade is a synthetic monoterpene alcohol compound, derived from the hydration of alpha-Pinene or Gum Turpentine. It isn’t a single isomer but a mixture of various terpineol isomers, including alpha-Terpineol, beta-Terpineol, and gamma-Terpineol, with alpha-Terpineol being the major constituent. The latter two isomers differ only by the location of their double bond.

The MU Grade is notably specifically developed for industrial applications and medical formulations. It’s widely employed as an excellent solvent for ethylcellulose, an effective plasticiser for epoxy resins, and a crucial component in fragrance synthetics.

In the medical disinfection field, the alpha-Terpineol within the MU Grade exhibits outstanding germicidal efficacy. It is primarily effective against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. Research reports confirm that when this MU Grade product is sprayed on human skin, it can achieve an average killing naturally occurring germs on the skin surface. This characteristic makes it an ideal choice for medical disinfection and sterilisation formulations.
