Application:

1). 2,6-Dimethyl-5-heptenal, commonly known as Melonal, is a high-impact unsaturated aldehyde with a bright, fresh melon and cucumber aroma and soft citrus undertones.

2). Food flavor formulators rely on it to build authentic melon, cucumber, watermelon and tropical fruit profiles. It performs well in beverages, hard candies, baked goods and dairy products, adding natural juicy green notes at low dosages. It also appears in tobacco flavor blends to soften harsh base notes and add fruity depth.

3). In the fragrance and personal care sector, it delivers crisp green top notes for perfumes, body washes, bar soaps and air fresheners. Its clean, watery scent blends smoothly with floral, citrus and tropical fragrance bases.

Storage:

1). Store this material in tightly sealed containers, preferably blanketed with inert gas such as nitrogen to slow oxidation.

2). Keep all stock in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct heat, open flames and strong oxidizing agents.

3). Protect containers from direct sunlight to prevent color darkening and aroma deterioration. Maintain storage temperatures below 37°C for best quality retention.

4). Unopened containers stored under proper conditions keep consistent quality for 12 to 24 months. After opening, reseal lids tightly after each use and finish contents within 6 months to preserve full odor performance.
