Description

Application
Used in biodiesel and renewable fuel research. Applied in lipid and fatty acid analysis. Intermediate in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical studies. Used in food flavor and fragrance research. Laboratory reagent in organic and biochemical synthesis.

Purpose
The main purpose of Methyl Linolenate is to act as a fatty acid derivative and research intermediate in studies involving omega-3 lipids biofuels and biochemical processes. It is also valued for its role in analyzing and producing lipid-based products.

General Description
Methyl Linolenate is the methyl ester form of linolenic acid an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid. It is commonly used in chemical research biodiesel studies flavor or fragrance chemistry and biochemical applications. Unsaturated organic ester with three double bonds. Soluble in organic solvents poorly soluble in water.
