Ethyl Acetate

About Ethyl Acetate

With our in-depth knowledge of this domain, we are actively engaged in manufacturing, exporting, and supplying Ethyl Acetate. The offered product is a colorless liquid that has the chemical formula CH3COOCH2CH3. This organic compound is the ester of ethanol and acetic acid. It has sweet smell that is similar to the pear drops and is highly flammable. Ethyl Acetate is widely used as a solvent and diluent, courtesy to its low toxicity and low cost. It is also used in nail polish removers, decaffeinating tea &coffee, glues. In laboratories, it is mainly used in extractions and column chromatography.

Key Points:

Versatile Industrial Applications

Ethyl Acetate is prized as a solvent in various industries due to its excellent solvency, neutrality (pH 7), and quick evaporation. Its roles span paints and coatings, adhesives, inks, extraction, and even flavoring and pharmaceuticals, where purity and efficiency are essential.


Safe Handling and Storage

As a flammable liquid (Hazard Class 3, UN 1173), Ethyl Acetate should be stored in cool, dry, well-ventilated environments with tightly sealed containers. Following proper storage protocols not only extends its shelf life but also ensures safety and maintains product quality.


Quality and Assurance

Manufactured to industrial grade with a purity of 99.8%, this solvent is offered in multiple packaging formats for bulk and specialized needs. It is non-poisonous, stable under typical conditions, and compliant with international standards (HS Code: 29153100, EINECS No: 205-500-4).
