use | GB 2760-96 stipulates that it is temporarily allowed to use edible spices. It is mainly used to prepare artificial cinnamon oil and berry flavors such as blackberry, blackcurrant and strawberry. It is used to prepare daily soap essence, also used in pharmacy It is also used as a solvent for nitrocellulose, and also used in spice and organic synthesis It can be used in Acacia, Robinia pseudoacacia, ylang ylang, lily of the valley and other sweet floral types. It can be used in a small amount in soap essence, such as as a sweetener in the fragrant Wei type. It can replace or modify its methyl ester aroma and fragrance in toothpaste and oral products. It is also used abroad for edible flavors, such as blackberry, black ribes, round currants, rubus, strawberries and other fruity and SARS flavors. Used for organic synthesis or preparation of spices, and also used as a solvent. Solvent, organic synthesis, manufacturing artificial spices. |
Production method | is obtained by esterification of o-hydroxybenzoic acid (ie salicylic acid) with ethanol. it is made by esterification of salicylic acid, ethanol and concentrated sulfuric acid in the presence of aluminum sulfate at 100 ℃. It is formed by heating an alkali solution of salicylic acid and ethyl p-toluenesulfonate to boiling. |
