Basic Information
Scope
Main technical content: The standard terms and definitions are mainly based on GB/T 12653 "Chinese Lavender (Essential) Oil" and GB/T 14455.1 "Naming Principles for Essential Oils". The standard requirements are based on GB/T 12653 "Chinese Lavender (Essential) Oil", ISO 3515 "International Standard for Lavender Oil", and DB65/T 3833-2015 "Geographical Indication Product - Yili Lavender Essential Oil". Through the analysis of detection data of Xinjiang-produced Lavandula angustifolia oil in recent years, the content of characteristic components specified in the national standard has been scientifically adjusted. Based on the monitoring data collected and analyzed over the past five years, the relative density of Lavandula angustifolia oil from Huocheng County, Yili Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region ranges between 0.891 and 0.899, the refractive index between 1.4650 and 1.4680, and the specific rotation between -3° and 2.5°. The highest content of characteristic component camphor reaches 12.7%, the content of linalool ranges from 26.9% to 39.9%, the content of linalyl acetate ranges from 14.2% to 20.5%, and the content of lavandulyl acetate ranges from 0 to 1.32%. Based on the above detection data, the relative density, refractive index, specific rotation, and content of characteristic components of Lavandula angustifolia oil have been appropriately adjusted in the formulation of this local standard. The relative density is adjusted to 0.885 to 0.905, the refractive index to 1.4630 to 1.4700, the specific rotation to -6° to 5°, and the limit value of camphor is adjusted to 14%. The content of linalyl acetate is adjusted to 5% to 30%, and the content of linalool and lavandulyl acetate remains unchanged.
