From Sourcing to Shipment

Manufacturing Process

1
Extraction

Thymol is extracted from natural thyme oil (Thymus vulgaris) or synthetically produced from m-cresol and isopropyl alcohol.

2
Purification

The crude thymol undergoes vacuum distillation and recrystallization to achieve 99%+ purity.

3
Crystallization

Controlled cooling crystallization produces the characteristic white crystalline form.

4
Drying

Crystals are carefully dried under vacuum to remove residual moisture without melting.

5
Quality Testing

Each batch is tested for purity (GC), melting point, heavy metals, and identity by IR spectroscopy.

Knowledge

Frequently Asked Questions

Thymol is primarily used as an antiseptic and disinfectant in oral care products (mouthwashes, toothpastes), pharmaceutical preparations (antiseptic creams), and as a natural preservative. It is also a key ingredient in some pesticide and fungicide formulations.

No. Thymol is the primary active constituent of thyme oil (typically 30-50% of thyme oil content). Our product is purified Thymol (>99%), not whole thyme oil.

Our Thymol Crystals conform to BP (British Pharmacopoeia), USP (United States Pharmacopeia), and NF (National Formulary) standards.

Store in a cool, dry place in tightly sealed containers away from light. Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents. Thymol is hygroscopic and should be kept in anhydrous conditions.
