Flavors industrial manufactures

BENZALDEHYDE The precursor for speed. It makes up nearly 100% of bitter almond oil. Not a very popular oil with the DEA. Some hints Benzaldehyde is indispensable for the flavoring industry. It is the flavor in almond extract and synthetic benzaldehyde is used in all cherry flavorings. Also, there is currently a little loophole in the system when it comes to a product called Roasted Cassia Oil . Apparently, some manufacturers take cassia oil and run it through some sort of industrial process to change it into benzaldehyde. No one wanted to tell Strike the particulars of how this was done. But one company chemist gave me some hints (You can get really chatty with some of these guys). 

Benzyl alcohol, [100-51 -6] C H CH20H (bp, 205.4°C at 101.3 kPa), produced by the hydrogenation of benzaldehyde is used in color photography as a parenteral solution preservative as a general solvent and as an intermediate in the manufacture of various benzoate esters for the soap, perfume, and flavor industries (see Benzyl alcohol and P-phenethyl alcohol). 

Uses Preparation of sodium and butyl benzoates, benzoyl chloride, phenol, caprolactum, and esters for perfume and flavor industry plasticizers manufacture of alkyl resins preservative for food, fats, and fatty oils seasoning tobacco dentifrices standard in analytical chemistry antifungal agent synthetic resins and coatings pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations plasticizer manufacturing (to modify resins such as polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl acetate, phenol-formaldehyde). 

This symposium was developed to provide an overview of existing processes and to investigate new developments. The speakers came from industry and academia to provide two perspectives applied research with immediate product benefits and basic research, which can contribute information for long-term improvements. Whereas many people are involved in the manufacture and use of encapsulated flavors, there is little published information on how encapsulation is accomplished and what factors affect encapsulation processes. This book represents the compilation of the information presented at the symposium. We hope it will serve as a reference for the people who work in all aspects of the food and flavor industry who are interested in the encapsulation of flavors. We are sincerely grateful to all of the authors who were willing to present information at the symposium and who cooperated by preparing manuscripts. We appreciate all of your efforts.

Caramel is unintentionally generated in burnt carbohydrate foods (rice, oatmeal, cornmeal, etc.) and molasses (Kowkabany et al., 1953) it is the source of maple flavor and color in the concentration of maple sap to maple syrup (Stinson and Willits, 1965). In industrial manufacturing, the intended application is taken into account, because reaction conditions help determine the properties of the pyrolysate, e.g., its tinctorial value, water solubility, and alcohol stability. Tinctorial value refers to the absorbance at 560 nm of a 0.1-wt/vol% solution in a 1-cm cell. Tinctorial strength increases with acidity, temperature, and duration of heating. Caramel manufactured above pH 6.3 is biologically unstable and much below pH 3.1, it is a resin. 

The Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association (FEMA), founded in 1909, represents the interests of its members in the US flavor industry including flavor manufacturers, users, ingredient suppliers, and other interested parties. FEMA maintains a strong scientific program to evaluate the safety of flavor ingredients. 

The main activities of flavor industries are collection or production of flavoring materials, manufacturing flavor, studies on flavor application, and technical services. 

Under FEMA (Flavor and Extract Manufacturer s Association) and lOFI (International Organization of Flavor Industry), the flavor industry established an independent expert panel for the review of flavor ingredient safety, certainly because of consumers awareness and concerns. FEMA inftoduced a GRAS list of allowed substances in 1965, and has added nearly 2000 compounds since then (6). lOFI is in the process of establishing a list of flavor ingredients it considers safe for use in foods. 

Citrus oils are used in a wide variety of applications in many major industries which include flavor, beverage, food, cosmetics, soap, pharmaceutical, chemical and insecticide. The most important outlet is the flavor industry. The major component, d-limonene, is used for the manufacture of materials like spearmint oil flavor, 1-carvone, terpene resins and adhesives.
