Product Overview

75% Vinegar ACS Grade is a high-purity, concentrated Acetic Acid solution formulated to meet the rigorous specifications of the American Chemical Society (ACS). This 75% w/w formulation is designed for critical applications in analytical chemistry, synthesis, and industrial processing where trace impurity control and reproducible acidity are mandatory. Unlike standard technical grades, ACS Grade ensures low levels of metals, chlorides, and sulfates, making it the standard choice for laboratory reagents and sensitive manufacturing environments.

This clear, colorless liquid is fully water-miscible, allowing for precise dilution to achieve specific pH targets. It serves as a vital intermediate in chemical production and a reliable neutralizing agent in industrial wastewater treatment. The product is manufactured under strict quality control to guarantee consistent assay performance (74–76%) and stability.

Common Applications

Laboratory Reagent: Used as a solvent and reagent in organic synthesis, chromatography, and spectroscopy due to its high purity profile.
pH Adjustment: precise pH control in industrial water treatment and chemical processing streams.
Chemical Manufacturing: A key feedstock for acetylation reactions and the production of acetates, esters, and plastics.
Industrial Cleaning: effective removal of mineral scale and oxidation in manufacturing equipment where chloride-free cleaning is required.
Textile Processing: Used in dyeing processes and neutralizing alkaline treatments in fabric manufacturing.

Safety & Handling

Corrosive Liquid: 75% Vinegar (Acetic Acid) is a strong irritant and corrosive to tissue. Appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is mandatory, including chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles/face shield, and acid-resistant clothing.

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from strong oxidizers, alkalis, and metals. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed spill, handling, and emergency response procedures. Transport carries UN 2790 designation.

Benefits
