Description
A transparent, viscous solvent with an odor of lilac. Terpineol is an unsaturated cyclic terpenoid found in many essential oils and turpentine. It is made synthetically for use in perfumes, soaps, and paints. In paints, terpineol acts as a diluent but also a thickener and it prevents the brushmarks from leveling. Terpineol dries to a matte surface.
Synonyms and Related Terms
terpene alcohol; turpentine alcohol; terpilenol; Nopol [Glidden]; p-Menth-1-en-8-ol; 4-trimethyl-3-cyclohexene-1-methanol
Risks
- Combustible. Flash point > 100 C (> 212 F)
