Isopropyl Acetate

Isopropyl Acetate Product Description

【Product Introduction】

Isopropyl acetate, also known as isopropyl acetate, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C5H10O2. It is a colorless, transparent liquid with a fruity aroma. It is slightly soluble in water, but miscible in a variety of organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Isopropyl acetate is mainly produced by the esterification reaction of acetic acid and isopropanol, or by using acetic acid and propylene as raw materials and synthesizing it in one step with the help of a solid acid catalyst.

【Product Features】

High Purity

The purity of isopropyl acetate is often above 99%, with very few impurities, which can prevent impurities from interfering with chemical reactions.

Good Chemical Stability

The ester bond in the molecule of isopropyl acetate is stable and not easy to break. Under normal storage conditions of 20℃ - 30℃ and relative humidity of 40% - 70%, the chemical properties can remain unchanged for 2-3 years.

Excellent Solubility

Isopropyl acetate can be miscible with organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, and aromatics in any proportion, and can quickly dissolve common polymer materials such as resins and rubbers.

【Product Application】

In The Coating Industry

Isopropyl acetate is mainly used as a solvent in the coating industry to dissolve coating ingredients such as nitrocellulose, alkyd resin, and polyurethane, providing good coating gloss and adhesion, ensuring that the coating is evenly applied to the substrate to form a smooth and durable coating.

In The Ink Manufacturing Industry

In the field of ink manufacturing, isopropyl acetate is used as a solvent to help dissolve the resin and other solid components in the ink and adjust the viscosity of the ink to make it suitable for printing requirements.

In The Flavor And Fragrance Industry

In the flavor and fragrance industry, isopropyl acetate is used to synthesize flavors and fragrances, giving the product a unique fruity aroma, and is widely used in food, cosmetics and other fields.
