Triethyl Citrate, Natural (TEC) Substitutes & Alternatives

fruity plum winey

Triethyl Citrate is generally odourless to very faintly scented, with some evaluators detecting extremely subtle fruity-winey plum-like notes that are negligible in practical application.

Same material — different names

These share the same CAS number (77-93-0) — the same core molecule sold under different trade names. They're close to interchangeable, but purity and isomer ratio can cause subtle differences in strength and character, so treat them as near-identical rather than exactly the same.
