Description ❯ Butyl Lactate is a mild technical solvent with a softly sweet, faintly ester-like odour. It is not intended to supply a fragrance narrative or decorative scent effect; its value lies in how it supports controlled dilution and processing. Use should be determined by the materials being dissolved or carried, the production method and the requirements of the finished product. Compatibility matters more than its raw odour. Confirm the appropriate level and application before formulation. An unsuitable amount may introduce unwanted solvent character or change the handling and performance of the formula.
