Ethyl Acetate is also known as Ethyl Ethanoate, Acetic Acid Ethyl Ether, and Acetoxyethane. It is an ester that is made up by Ethanol and Acetic Acid. It is a polar aprotic solvent with sweet taste and appears as colorless at ambient conditions. It is a very flammable liquid having high miscibility with other organic compounds. Although Lab Grade chemicals have a reasonable purity, they do not meet any recognized quality or purity standards such as the ACS Grade, USP Grade, or FCC Grade. In terms of heavy metals, our Lab Grade chemicals have high purity.Â
