The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Lilial production plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Lilial production, including the cost of Lilial production, Lilial plant cost, Lilial production costs, and the overall Lilial production plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Lilial production plant. These encompass production processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.
Lilial is a chemical compound that has various applications as a fragrance compound in a range of beauty products like shampoos, perfumes, deodorants, hair styling products, and tanning lotions, mainly because of its Lily of the Valley aroma. It is also used to make laundry powders. Furthermore, it blends greatly with other floral materials along with musks and woody notes. Also, it gives a lily-like effect to fragrances.
The market for Lilial is driven by its usage as a fragrance compound in a range of beauty products like shampoos, perfumes, deodorants, hair styling products, and tanning lotions, which elevates its demand in the cosmetics and personal care industries. Its applications beyond cosmetics in other sectors, such as household products and biocides, amplify its market appeal. Overall, industrial Lilial procurement is influenced by its application in various industries such as cosmetics, personal care, fragrance, and household products industries, the availability of its raw materials (p-tert-benzaldehyde and n-propanal), the cost of its raw materials, the rising shift towards safer alternatives, regulatory approvals, market adaptation and innovation, and consumer awareness.
Raw Material for Lilial Production
According to the Lilial production plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Lilial include p-tert-benzaldehyde and n-propanal.
Production Process of Lilial
The extensive Lilial production cost report consists of the following major industrial production process:
- Production from p-tert-benzaldehyde and n-propanal: The production process of Lilial starts with the addition of an alkaline solution of p-tert-benzaldehyde and methanol in a reaction kettle, followed by the dropwise addition of n-propanal, leading to a condensation reaction. The acid is added to the reaction after 2 hours to terminate the reaction and to regulate the pH, followed by the distillation of the products. The obtained condensation distilled intermediateintermediate, and methanol are hydrogenated in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, followed by filter pressing, purification, and rectification to produce pure Lilial.
Lilial (butyl phenylmethyl propanal) is a fragrance ingredient previously called Butylphenyl Methylpropional. It has a fresh, light green floral lily muguet linden-blossom aldehyde lilac modern aroma. It is a synthetic fragrance ingredient that can cause allergies and contact dermatitis. It looks colorless and has an oily consistency. Its molecular weight is 204.31 g/mol, and it has high odor strength. Its odor type is muguet (Lily of the Valley) and has a floral, sweet, aldehydic, soapy, clean, fresh, watery, transparent, and more synthetic (compared to other muguet odorants) odor profile.
