Description
High-Purity Acetone 99-99.5% | Electronic Grade Solvent
Premium Acetone for Laboratory and Electronics Applications
Acetone (CH₃COCH₃) is a volatile, fast-drying organic solvent offered in 99% and 99.5% purity, ideal for applications across scientific research, electronics, paint and coating industries, and manufacturing processes. It is available in AR/ACS, Laboratory, and Electronic Grade, ensuring high performance across both analytical and industrial environments.
Acetone appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a distinct, slightly sweet odor. It is miscible with water, alcohols, and most organic solvents, and is highly effective at dissolving plastics, resins, adhesives, and oils. It is commonly used in cleanroom environments, chemical synthesis, and sample preparation. For comprehensive solvent safety protocols, refer to OSHA’s chemical hazard guidelines and detailed application information at the Environmental Protection Agency’s chemical safety database.
Due to its flammability and rapid evaporation rate, acetone must be stored in sealed, approved containers in cool, well-ventilated areas. It is classified as a flammable liquid under UN 1090. For related high-purity solvents and electronic chemicals, explore our electronic grade chemicals .
