Chemical Profile

Product Overview

Isopropyl Acetate 99.98% is a colorless, flammable organic ester solvent utilized extensively in industrial and laboratory settings. Produced via the esterification of isopropanol and acetic acid, this high-purity reagent offers exceptional solvency power and a fast evaporation rate. It serves as a critical component in the manufacturing of coatings, adhesives, and printing inks, as well as a mobile phase in High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).

Also known as 2-Propyl Acetate, this product is manufactured to strict specifications ensuring low acidity and minimal water content. With a typical assay of 99.9% and strict impurity controls (trace aldehydes, heavy metals), it provides the consistent baseline performance required for sensitive analytical methods and chemical processing. Packaging options range from 1 quart lab samples to 330-gallon totes for bulk industrial production.

Safety Precautions

Isopropyl Acetate is a Class 3 Flammable Liquid. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources, sparks, and open flames. Keep containers, such as HDPE or glass, tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. Operators should wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves and safety goggles, to prevent skin and eye irritation. Ensure proper grounding of containers during transfer to mitigate static discharge risks.

Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling instructions. In the event of exposure, rinse eyes immediately with water and wash skin thoroughly. If inhaled, move to fresh air. Transport regulated under UN 1230.
