What Is Crotonaldehyde?
Crotonaldehyde is an unsaturated aldehyde with the formula C₄H₆O. It is a liquid with a sharp, pungent smell. Its double bond sits right next to the aldehyde group, which makes it a useful starting material in chemical synthesis. That same reactivity means it needs careful handling from the day it arrives.
If you want the basic chemical data, PubChem’s crotonaldehyde entry is a good reference. You can also see the details on our crotonaldehyde product page.
Where Crotonaldehyde Is Used
Most of our buyers use crotonaldehyde as an intermediate. It is part of some routes to sorbic acid, and it shows up in specialty chemicals for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and rubber processing. Some customers in the crotonaldehyde manufacturer distributor in West Bengal market also order smaller lots for trials before they commit to full production.

Why West Bengal Buyers Choose Shivam Industries
Buyers in West Bengal look for the same basics as everyone else: a consistent grade, clear documents and a supplier who responds when you call. We have built our business around those points since 2002. You can read more about our company and team or check our quality and compliance information before you place an order.
Safe Handling and Storage of Crotonaldehyde
Crotonaldehyde is hazardous. It is flammable, harmful if breathed in or absorbed through the skin, and it irritates the eyes and airways. Anyone handling it should have proper training and protective equipment.
Keep containers closed and store them in a cool, ventilated area away from heat, sparks and oxidizers. During transfer, wear chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection, and use local exhaust ventilation. Read the Safety Data Sheet before you open the first drum so your team knows the first-aid steps.
For occupational exposure limits, the NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards is a useful reference. European classification data is available in the ECHA database. Check the rules that apply in West Bengal and under India’s transport regulations as well, because they can change.
If you have questions about documents or storage, contact our team and we will explain what we can provide.
