Isopropyl Acetate

Isopropyl acetate is a colorless liquid with a specific odor similar to that of fruit. It is an organic compound that is the product of acetic acid and isopropanol. Molecular formula is C5H10O2. It is stable at normal temperatures and pressures and is incompatible with alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide, nitric acid and strong oxidants. It is produced by a high purity reaction reaction between acetic acid and isopropanol. Of course, since this reaction consumes a lot of energy, a different heat distillation process is proposed to reduce costs and save energy.

Isopropyl acetate applications

Isopropyl acetate is used as a solvent and extractor for cellulose, plastic, oil and fat derivatives and it is widely used in pharmaceuticals, agriculture, coatings, inks and other industries. It is an active solvent for many types of synthetic resins such as cellulose acetate butyrate, nitrocellulose, vinyl copolymers, polyester, polyamide, acrylic and alkyd, and in nitrocellulose, resin, plastic, paint, varnish, ink, organic synthesis and fragrances. It has excellent solubility. It is used in food industry to produce common flavors and aromas on fruits as an essential oil. It is also a disinfectant commonly used in industry.

Packing

It is packing in drums (New steel drum or PE drum) and offering to customers.

Isopropyl acetate export destinations

It is forwarding to customers which are using this product as a solvent and extractor for cellulose, plastic, oil and fat derivatives and using  in pharmaceuticals, agriculture, coatings, inks and other industries to some countries such as CIS, Europe, middle east, East Asian, Turkey, Pakistan.
