For B2B purchasers in the chemical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries, understanding the precise specifications of raw materials is non-negotiable. Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil is a widely utilized natural ingredient, and for effective procurement, knowing its key characteristics is essential. This guide provides a detailed look at the critical specifications you should consider when sourcing this valuable oil, from a trusted Chinese manufacturer.

The primary identifier for Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil is its CAS Number, which is 8000-48-4. This unique identifier ensures you are sourcing the correct substance. Equally important is the EINECS number (283-406-2) and FEMA number (2466), which are critical for regulatory compliance and product registration in various markets.

A cornerstone specification for Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil is its chemical composition, particularly the concentration of 1,8-Cineole, also known as Eucalyptol. While standard grades may have a lower percentage, many applications, especially in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, demand a higher purity. Reputable suppliers, like ourselves, often guarantee a cineole content of 80% or even higher (e.g., 80/85%). This higher concentration directly impacts the oil's efficacy, particularly its antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and invigorating properties. When you buy Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil, always confirm this specification.

Physical and chemical properties also play a significant role. The appearance is typically described as a colorless to pale yellow liquid. Key parameters such as relative density (around 0.905-0.915) and refractive index (1.4580-1.4780) are vital for quality control and ensuring product consistency. Optical rotation and the absence of harmful heavy metals or contaminants are also critical indicators of a pure, high-quality product.

The extraction method, typically steam distillation, and whether the oil has undergone rectification are also important considerations. Rectification can increase the cineole content but may alter other aromatic nuances. Understanding these processes helps purchasers make informed decisions based on their specific application needs.
