Acetone (For Synthesis)

Product Description

The supplied Acetone (For Synthesis) is a chemical used to make products like nail polish remover and paint remover. Acetone is an organic solvent that was historically produced by fermentation until cheap chemical synthesis methods were introduce. It is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that is considered to have low toxicity, though improper use of it can cause serious problems. It is used for thinning polyester resin, cleaning tools used with it. The Acetone (For Synthesis) is made for commercial uses.

Assay : Min. 98% (CH3)2CO M.W. 58.08

Safety and Handling Precautions

Acetone is classified as a highly flammable liquid (UN1090, Class 3). When dealing with acetone in laboratory environments, ensure you store it in tightly sealed containers in cool, well-ventilated areas. Always keep acetone away from heat, sparks, and open flames and use appropriate personal protective equipment to minimize eye irritation risks.


Applications in Synthesis and Laboratory Use

Acetone's miscibility with water and organic solvents, combined with its neutral pH and rapid evaporation, makes it ideal for laboratory synthesis, cleaning, and reagent preparation. Its high purity ensures reliable results in experiments and chemical processes, suitable for educational and research environments such as school labs.
