Common Textile Applications

Fiber Production & Preparation

Used as a solvent in the production of cellulose acetate fibers, where it dissolves cellulose acetate flake into a spinnable dope solution

Equipment & Machinery Cleaning

Removes residual dyes, adhesives, coatings, and greases from looms, spinnerets, printing screens, and other textile equipment between production runs

Dye & Coating Removal

Effective solvent for stripping unwanted dyes, inks, and surface coatings from fabrics during rework or quality correction processes

Adhesive Thinning & Bonding

Thins adhesives used in textile lamination, bonding, and nonwoven fabric assembly to achieve proper application viscosity

Degreasing & Surface Preparation

Removes oils, sizing agents, and surface contaminants from fibers and fabrics prior to dyeing, printing, or coating operations

Laboratory & Quality Control

Used in textile testing labs for sample preparation, extraction procedures, and analytical chemistry workflows

Technical grade acetone serves multiple roles across textile manufacturing and processing:

Handling & Storage in Textile Facilities

Acetone is a highly flammable solvent with a low flash point. Textile facilities using acetone should follow these protocols:

  • Review the SDS thoroughly before introducing acetone into any new process or work area
  • Ventilation: Use only in well-ventilated areas or with local exhaust ventilation to control vapor concentrations
  • PPE Requirements: Wear chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, and appropriate respiratory protection as specified in the SDS
  • Fire Prevention: Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces. Acetone vapor is heavier than air and can travel to ignition sources. Ensure fire suppression equipment is accessible
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area in approved flammable-liquid storage cabinets or rooms. Keep containers tightly sealed when not in use
  • Grounding & Bonding: Ground and bond containers during transfer operations to prevent static discharge
  • Regulatory Compliance: Follow all applicable OSHA, EPA, and local regulations governing flammable solvent use in textile manufacturing environments
