Description
Oil of grapefruit is a natural essential oil supplied for laboratory and research use, identified by CAS number 8016-20-4 and EG nr. 616-973-5. This citrus-derived material is offered as a clear liquid with a density of 0,853 g/cm³, a flash point of 54,8 °C and a boiling point of 160 °C, making its physical profile straightforward to integrate into formulation and analytical workflows. Packed as 250 ml in glass, the product suits applications in natural-product chemistry, fragrance reference work, extraction studies and comparative essential-oil analysis. Laboratories handling citrus oils will find the defined density and thermal data helpful for solvent selection, distillation planning and safety assessment under standard laboratory conditions. The oil is presented as a natural grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH and is intended for professional scientific use rather than consumer aromatherapy. Its classification among natural products and essential oils supports routine cataloguing in chemical inventories. UN number 1197 applies for transport-related handling. Consistent batch presentation in glass helps maintain sample integrity during storage and dispensing in the laboratory environment.

Questions about Oil of grapefruit, natural, 250 ml, glass
What is this article?
Oil of grapefruit, natural, 250 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Essential oils & fragrances, inside Natural products & essential oils, in Lab chemicals.
An essential oil is the volatile fraction distilled or pressed from a named plant part. The species, the chemotype and a stated component, when the seller gives one, are the specification. A fragrance compound is a formulated mixture. The two should not be treated as the same bottle.
A natural product is a molecule extracted from a plant, an animal or a microorganism, or a mixture of those molecules. An essential oil is the volatile fraction. The useful specification is the source species, the plant part and, where it exists, the stated content of a marker compound. Two oils with the same common name are not the same article. Marker compounds are identified on PubChem and named by IUPAC.
