Frequently Asked Questions
Is camphor the same as camphor?
Yes. Campher is an alternate spelling of camphor — same product, CAS 76-22-2. Our TDS titles it Camphor (Synthetic); in Tamil it is known as karpooram, and the optically inactive synthetic form is commonly called DL-camphor.
What is the CAS number and HSN code of camphor?
Camphor (synthetic) has CAS number 76-22-2 and HSN code 2914 21 00. Both appear on our technical data sheet (doc no. SPC-TDS-OTH-009).
What grades of synthetic camphor do you supply — IP or technical?
We supply synthetic camphor in both IP and Technical grades. Typical specification: assay (C10H16O) 96.0% w/w min, melting point 174–179 °C, optically inactive, moisture 0.5% max — per the manufacturer's published specification and IP monograph.
Is camphor flammable? What is its UN number?
Yes. Camphor is a flammable solid — UN 2717, Class 4.1. Keep it away from heat and open flame, store cool and dry in closed containers, and avoid dust accumulation.
