Depending on the ambient temperature it is semi-solid, viscous or slightly crystalline – it can hardly be weighed cleanly and reproducibly out of the original container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince the IFRA limit for fine fragrance is 3.8% in the finished product, precise dosing is especially important for Cashmeran – a material that can only be measured imprecisely makes correct compliance with this limit difficult in practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 50% solution in DPG solves both problems at once: it is consistently liquid at room temperature and can be measured precisely, and the dilution factor is known and constant – 1 g of the solution corresponds to 0.5 g of pure Cashmeran. This makes dosages traceable and formulas reproducible from trial to trial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRegulatory note\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCashmeran® (CAS 33704-61-9) has been subject to quantity restrictions since IFRA Amendment 49 (2020), confirmed in Amendment 51 (2023). The permitted maximum concentration in the finished product varies widely by application category – from very low values for lip products to significantly higher values for products without skin contact. For fine fragrance a limit of 3.8% applies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder the CLP Regulation, Cashmeran® is classified with the hazard statements H315 (causes skin irritation), H319 (causes serious eye irritation) and H317 (may cause an allergic skin reaction). Environmentally, H411 applies (toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects). Cashmeran does not meet the PBT criteria under REACH; the bioaccumulation factor is well below that of classic polycyclic musk compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck current IFRA Standards and EU regulations before use in commercial products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePhysico-chemical properties\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProperty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct name\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCashmeran® 50% in DPG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eActive ingredient\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCashmeran® (Musk Indanone)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIFF (International Flavors \u0026amp; Fragrances)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIUPAC name\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6,7-dihydro-1,1,2,3,3-pentamethyl-4(5H)-indanone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConcentration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50% Cashmeran® in dipropylene glycol (DPG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFragrance family\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emusk \/ woody \/ spicy \/ floral\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePerfumery role\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebase note, fixative, cashmere-musk structural material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial form\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eclear liquid (50% solution in DPG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMolecular formula\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eC₁₄H₂₂O\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMolecular weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e206.3 g\/mol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDensity at 20°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.955–0.963 g\/ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRefractive index nD20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.4970–1.5020\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlash point\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e94°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoiling point\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220°C (1013 hPa)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVapor pressure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.0006 kPa\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolubility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49.1 g\/L in water at 20°C; soluble in ethanol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStorage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ecool, dry, protected from light; max. heating 65°C; max. 36 months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCAS no.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33704-61-9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEINECS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e251-649-3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCustoms tariff no.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2914290090\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIFRA status\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003equantity-restricted (Amendment 49\/51); fine fragrance max. 3.8%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Cashmeran?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCashmeran® (Musk Indanone, CAS 33704-61-9) is a synthetic musk material by IFF with a warm, woody-spicy character.
