Ethyl acetate (also known as acetic acid ethyl ester), acetic ether, acetoethane and ethyl acetate is an organic compound with the chemical formula C4H4O2. It is a clear, colorless liquid that smells like fruit and is similar to some glues or lacquers.
Applications:
Ethyl acetate has applications as a solvent in inks for flexographic and rotogravure printing. It is used as an extraction solvent in the production of pharmaceuticals and food, and as a carrier solvent for herbicides. High purity product can be used as a viscosity reducer for resins used in photoresist formulations in the electronics industry. Ethyl Acetate is used in a variety of coating formulations such as epoxies, urethanes, cellulosics, acrylics and vinyls. Applications for these coatings are numerous including wood furniture and fixtures, agricultural, construction and mining equipment, auto refinishing, and maintenance and marine uses
