8024-01-9 Usage
Chemical Properties
Different sources of media describe the Chemical Properties of 8024-01-9 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Styrax oil and styrax resinoid are obtained from styrax balsam, which is collected
fromthe artificially injured trees, Liquidambar orientalis Mill. (Turkey) and
Liquidambar styraciflua L. (Honduras) (Hamamelidaceae).
Styrax resinoid is a light gray to dark gray-brown, viscous liquid that is prepared
by solvent extraction. It has a sweet balsamic, slightly grass-like odor and is used
in perfumery as a fixative.
Steam distillation of the balsam gives styrax oil, a light yellow liquid that contains
a relatively large amount of cinnamic acid, which partially crystallizes.
Styrax oil has a sweet, balsamic odor with a styrene-like top note. It is used in perfumery
in floral compositions. Styrax products are produced only on a very small scale.
2. The oil is obtained by steam distillation of the crude resin in approximately 0.5 to 1.0% yields. The oil has a balsamic, sweet, slightly spicy odor. Based on the source, the oils are categorized as Asian (levant oil) storax (L. orientalis) and American storax (L. styraciflua).
Physical properties
Both the oils are colorless to pale-yellow liquids.
Occurrence
Storax is a tree found in Turkey.
Uses
Traditionally, storax has been used in warm-mist vaporizers and as an expectorant. It is used as a diuretic and to treat diarrhea and sore throat. In addition, it is used in the furniture, cosmetic, and food industries. Externally, storax is used to treat wounds and ulcers.
Essential oil composition
The oil contains several chemicals, the major ones being terpinen-4-ol, α-pinene and sabinene.*
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 8024-01-9 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 8,0,2 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 1 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 8024-01:
(6*8)+(5*0)+(4*2)+(3*4)+(2*0)+(1*1)=69
69 % 10 = 9
So 8024-01-9 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
