Almond Bitter Oil
Almond Bitter Oil, derived from the kernels of bitter almonds (Prunus amygdalus var. amara), is an essential oil known for its sharp, nutty, and marzipan-like aroma. This oil is produced through steam distillation of crushed bitter almond kernels and contains a naturally occurring compound called benzaldehyde, which gives it its characteristic scent. In purified form (free of hydrogen cyanide), bitter almond oil is used in fragrance, flavoring, and pharmaceutical applications.
Due to its potent aroma and biochemical properties, it is widely used in perfumery, baked goods flavoring (in controlled quantities), aromatherapy, and traditional topical remedies. It is important to distinguish between natural bitter almond oil, which must be detoxified, and synthetic benzaldehyde, which is commonly used as a substitute in commercial formulations.
CALCIUM SULPHATE DIHDRATE 500gm
Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate, commonly known as gypsum, is a naturally occurring mineral widely used in agriculture, construction, and various industrial processes. It appears as a white or slightly translucent crystalline powder with moderate solubility in water. The compound is primarily used as a soil conditioner to improve soil structure and supply calcium and sulfur nutrients essential for plant growth. It also finds applications in the manufacture of plaster, cement, and as a filler in various products.
