Mayol AB-12: The First Ever Odorless & Neutral Base Oil
Mayol AB-12 is a first-of-its-kind, innovative liquid ester designed as an odorless and neutral-tasting base oil for attar, flavor, and fragrance manufacturing. It is FSSAI-approved and has been certified for oral consumption by the Indian Drugs Research Association & Laboratory. It provides a safe and superior alternative to harmful bases like DOP, ensuring stability, purity, and better absorption for manufacturers.
Key Features:
✅ Food-Grade & Safe: Mayol AB-12 is a food-grade, FSSAI-approved ester, making it an ideal and legal alternative to DOP, which is banned for oral use.
✅ Odorless & Neutral Taste: Unlike DOP or paraffin, it does not impart any fragrance or taste, allowing pure retention of the intended floral extract or flavor.
✅ Highly Stable & Versatile: It has a high boiling point (>190°C), does not attract water, and improves the shelf life of attars, fragrances, and flavors.
✅ Efficient in Attar Manufacturing: Compared to DOP, it enhances absorption and retention of floral extracts, requires fewer washes (Pichadi & Agadi), and ensures superior quality production.
✅ Superior Performance in Fragrances: Miscible with fragrance compounds and crystals, it ensures long-lasting aroma stability and better retention capacity.
✅ Enhances Flavor Manufacturing: Mayol AB-12 improves mouthfeel, helps in extending flavors, and does not attract water, ensuring longer product shelf life.
Why Mayol AB-12 is Better Than DOP?
🚫 DOP is legally restricted – It is a banned substance for oral consumption, making its use in food and fragrance industries legally risky.
🚫 DOP is used in the tobacco industry – Originally formulated for industrial use, DOP is not intended for safe application in attars, flavors, or fragrances.
🚫 DOP imparts an unwanted odor & taste – It alters the intended fragrance or flavor profile, requiring multiple washes (Pichadi & Agadi) to neutralize.
🚫 DOP attracts moisture – This leads to faster degradation of attars and fragrances, reducing their shelf life.
🚫 DOP can cause bitterness in flavors – It interferes with taste, making it unsuitable for high-quality food-grade applications.
