Description: Ethyl acetate is produced through esterification of ethanol and acetic acid, widely used as a versatile solvent with a pleasant fruity odor. It serves as a key ingredient in paints, coatings, adhesives, and nail polish removers due to its balanced evaporation rate and excellent solubility for resins, cellulose, and oils. With medium volatility (boiling point 77°C), it is also extensively applied in pharmaceutical extraction and food flavoring (GRAS status). Available in industrial grade (>99.5% purity) and ultra-high purity grade (>99.9%) for electronic cleaning applications.
