Product Overview

Acetone 99% Extra Pure (CAS No. 67-64-1) is a high-purity ketone solvent widely used in laboratory, educational, research, and industrial environments. It is a clear, colourless, volatile liquid characterized by its excellent solvency and rapid evaporation rate. As one of the most commonly used organic solvents in chemistry, acetone exhibits broad compatibility with numerous organic substances, making it an important reagent for routine laboratory operations and general-purpose chemical applications.

The Extra Pure grade is intended for laboratories and research facilities requiring reliable purity for routine analytical work, sample preparation, cleaning procedures, educational experiments, and general chemical synthesis. Owing to its ability to dissolve a wide range of organic compounds, resins, oils, waxes, and polymers, acetone is frequently selected as a versatile solvent in both research and quality control laboratories. Its combination of strong solvency, low residue characteristics, and ease of removal through evaporation has established acetone as an indispensable material in chemical, pharmaceutical, academic, and industrial laboratories.
