Description

Eugenol USP

Eugenol USP is a high-purity phenolic compound used in pharmaceutical, dental, and topical formulations for its analgesic, antiseptic, and anesthetic properties. Compliant with United States Pharmacopeia (USP) standards, it is widely utilized in dental materials and topical preparations due to its soothing effect and broad antimicrobial activity.
Eugenol is chemically designated as 4-Allyl-2-methoxyphenol. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid with a characteristic clove-like aroma. It is practically insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol and organic solvents, allowing flexible formulation in solutions, emulsions, and topical systems.
In pharmaceutical and dental applications, Eugenol USP is used in:
• Dental cements, temporary fillings, and periodontal dressings
• Topical analgesic and antiseptic formulations
• Oral care products for localized pain relief
• Combination formulations with Zinc Oxide for dental applications
• Antimicrobial and antifungal research
• Aromatic and flavoring components in select pharmaceutical products
Eugenol USP functions by blocking nerve conduction and exhibiting local anesthetic effects, while its phenolic structure contributes to antimicrobial activity. These combined properties make it particularly effective for temporary pain relief and infection control in dental and topical applications.
