Ethyl acetate (ethyl acetate) (4.1 kg)

Product information "Ethyl acetate (ethyl acetate) (4.1 kg)"

For chemical-technical applications.

Application

Ethyl acetate, also known as acetic acid ethyl ester or acetic ester, is produced during the esterification of acetic acid and ethanol. Ethyl acetate is a colourless liquid with a characteristically fruity-sweet odour. In the chemical industry, ethyl acetate is mainly used as a solvent. Most users will know it as a cosmetic product due to its high dissolving power: as a nail polish remover. In this sense, ethyl acetate is one of the most versatile solvents and also offers very good performance in extraction processes. For example, ethyl acetate is used for decaffeinating coffee or for extracting natural flavours that are used to flavour beverages. In addition, ethyl acetate is used in the production of pharmaceutical extracts and is used in the manufacture of adhesives in all areas. In electrical engineering, it can – when manufacturing batteries – be used as an electrolyte, as it enables stable processes even at low temperatures. However, this comes with the disadvantage of low energy density.

This was my first order at chemiekontor. There are no drugstores near my place of residence that still need to be clarified. However, the phone call with an employee was promising so far. Delivery was super fast!

Super satisfied and happy to order again at Chemiekontor. Uncomplicated and fast goods, yes well box from GIs reworked, but that would be complaining at a high level, so everything chic! Thumbs up.
