Have Questions About Camphor?
We've Got Answers.

Camphor is a bicyclic monoterpene ketone traditionally obtained from the wood of the Cinnamomum camphora tree or produced synthetically from turpentine

it is primarily used as a topical analgesic, decongestant, and anti-itch agent in over-the-counter medicines like Vicks VapoRub and Tiger Balm

This compound is widely utilized in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, fragrance, and chemical manufacturing industries for products ranging from topical ointments and skincare to plastics, explosives, and insect repellents

Camphor is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, acetone, ether, and chloroform, and is typically formulated into topical creams, ointments, balms, liniments, and sprays

Standard specifications include CAS number 76-22-2, high purity (typically ≥95% or ≥98% via GC), and availability of documentation such as COA, TDS, impurity reports, and regulatory compliance documents

Scimplify has capabilities for global distribution and custom synthesis through an integrated network of manufacturers and logistics partners with reliable lead time

The product is export ready with a standard MOQ starting from 100 kgs, with lead times for international customers depending on the shipping destination and specific grade.
