 ACETONE |
 |
|
 GENERAL |
 |
Acetone is clear,
colorless, low boiling, flammable, volatile
liquid, characterized by rapid evaporation
and a faintly aromatic, sweetish odor. It
is readily miscible in most organic solvents
and completely miscible, in all proportions,
in distilled water.
It is widely used as a chemical intermediate
in the production of methyl isobutyl ketone
and other solvents, and in the production
of such important chemicals as bisphenol A
and methyl methacrylate. It is also used in
the manufacture of a wide variety of coatings
and plastics.
Health and safety information is available
through the appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheet(MSDS). |
