description Product Description
Used in the production of esters for artificial flavorings and perfumes, particularly to impart butter and cheese notes in food products. Serves as a precursor in the synthesis of cellulose acetate butyrate, a component in some plastics and coatings. Employed in animal feed as a source of energy and to support gut health, especially in poultry and swine. Utilized in pharmaceuticals for targeted drug delivery to the colon due to its natural occurrence and metabolic role in the human digestive system. Also applied in the manufacturing of herbicides and as a laboratory reagent for organic synthesis.
