Propyl Acetate CAS 109-60-4
Sinochem is a major Propyl acetate supplier. Meanwhile, our firm staffs a group of experts devoted to your development of China Propyl acetate.
Propyl ethanoate is an ester-type organic compound characterized by its clear liquid form and distinctive fruity aroma, which is similar to that of pear or apple. This property renders it a widely utilized solvent across multiple industries, such as in paints, coatings, and adhesives.
- Smell: It has a strong fruity aroma (similar to pear or banana), and is often used in food flavors and cosmetic fragrances.
- Solubility: It is easily soluble in organic solvents (such as ethanol and ether), and slightly soluble in water.
- Volatility: The boiling point is about 102°C, which is a medium-low boiling point solvent with a moderate evaporation rate.
