DESCRIPTION
Triethyl Citrate Natural (TEC) is a clear, odorless, naturally derived solvent widely used in professional perfumery and cosmetics for its high purity, safety, and versatility. Derived from citric acid (naturally present in citrus fruits), it is appreciated for its biodegradability and excellent ecotoxicological profile, making it an ideal choice for gentle, sustainable formulations.
WHY IT IS USED IN PERFUMERY
In perfumery, Triethyl Citrate is one of the most refined and safest solvents for diluting essential oils, absolutes, and aroma chemicals. Thanks to its excellent compatibility with aromatic raw materials, it is used to create stable perfumed bases, accords, and concentrates, helping process dense or resinous substances with ease.
TEC is completely odorless and free from impurities, allowing the true olfactory identity of fragrances to remain intact. Its low volatility enables smooth, gradual diffusion, enhancing the roundness and longevity of the perfume.
It is particularly recommended for home fragrances, diluted bases, and working materials intended for alcoholic perfumes or perfumed oils, where clarity and stability are essential.
WHY IT IS USED IN COSMETICS
In cosmetics, Triethyl Citrate Natural is used as a solvent, stabilizer, and natural deodorizing agent.
Its main function is to solubilize fragrances, botanical extracts, and lipophilic ingredients, ensuring an even distribution throughout formulations. It is also valued for its ability to inhibit unpleasant odors thanks to its pH-regulating action, which makes it widely used in deodorants, body creams, and leave-on products.
As a biocompatible and non-irritating compound, TEC is suitable for sensitive skin and formulations requiring high safety standards. Its light, non-greasy texture enhances the sensorial profile of finished products, making it an excellent base for perfumed emulsions and delicate fragrance blends.
