Dimethyl sulfone

CAS: 67-71-0

Overview

Dimethyl sulfone (CAS 67-71-0 ), commercially recognized as MSM and sold under the trade name OptiMSM, is an organosulfur compound used as a bioavailable sulfur source in dietary supplement and functional nutrition formulations.

It is a high-purity ingredient specified by formulators for its consistent performance across nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and personal care applications. In dietary supplements, MSM is a primary active ingredient in joint health.

It is used for sports recovery and general wellness products, supplied in both finished capsule and bulk powder formats. Personal care formulators incorporate it into skin creams and hair care products where sulfur availability supports keratin-related claims.

In animal nutrition, it is added to feed premixes targeting coat condition and joint mobility in companion animals and performance horses. Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it as an excipient or active in solid dosage forms.

This material is ideal for applications requiring a stable, odorless sulfur source. Dimethyl sulfone is supplied as a white crystalline powder, available in food-grade and USP -grade specifications to meet procurement requirements.

OptiMSM is a recognized branded grade with documented purity and traceability, preferred by buyers requiring validated supply chains. Bulk quantities are standard for industrial formulators, with smaller packaging available for R&D.
