Ethyl Acetate (CAS: 141-78-6) is a multifunctional ester solvent and a core product in modern industrial chemistry.
Shandong Aolansu Environmental Technology Co., Ltd., a professional manufacturer in China, produces high-purity ethyl acetate (purity ≥99%), which is stable and widely used in coatings, adhesives, pharmaceuticals, and chemical synthesis.
Chemical Classification and Basic Properties
Ethyl Acetate (IUPAC name: ethyl acetate) belongs to the aliphatic ester class, formed by the condensation reaction of ethanol and acetic acid. Its chemical formula is C₄H₈O₂, and its molecular weight is 88.11 g/mol. Key classification characteristics: The functional group is an ester group (-COO-), belonging to volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with a low boiling point (77℃) and good miscibility with most organic solvents; industrially, high-purity grades (≥99%) are mainly produced, distinguishing it from technical-grade (95-98%) and food-grade products.
