Acetone, Reagent, ACS
Acetone, Reagent, ACS is a colorless, flammable liquid renowned for its exceptional miscibility with water, making it a vital solvent in numerous applications. As a polar aprotic solvent, it facilitates a wide variety of organic reactions without forming azeotropes with water, while its low cost and high volatility make it an ideal choice for cleaning laboratory glassware. One of the standout features of acetone is its ability to remain in liquid form at low temperatures; it can be cooled with dry ice to -78°C without freezing, enabling reactions under cool conditions.
High-Quality Standards
This ACS-grade reagent meets the highest chemical specifications, which are the de facto standards for high-purity applications. It is meticulously manufactured to adhere to rigorous regulatory standards for quality and purity, ensuring optimal performance in laboratory environments.
