Acetic Acid 80% Pure Grade: Also known as ethanoic acid, acetic acid solution, or glacial acetic acid (in its pure form), with the chemical formula CH₃COOH, it is a colourless liquid organic compound with a strong, pungent odour. The 80% concentration of Acetic Acid is commonly used in industrial applications, chemical synthesis, and as a cleaning agent. Acetic Acid is a key component of vinegar, where it imparts its distinctive sour taste, and is widely used in the production of chemicals such as acetic anhydride, acetate esters, and synthetic fibres. It is also a critical reagent in the food industry, pharmaceuticals, and laboratory applications. Acetic Acid is well-known for its acidity and is used in the manufacture of various food additives and preservatives.
Consistent Quality: We ensure that our Acetic Acid 80% meets high standards of purity, providing reliable quality for industrial, laboratory, and manufacturing applications.
Shipped from Manchester, UK Facility: Sourced and bottled using non-toxic, chemical-resistant containers, ensuring reliable quality for our customers.
Safe Break Glass Winchester Bottle: Our Glass Winchester bottles can store chemicals that may be sensitive to light due to filtering potentially harmful UV rays. The Safe Break bottles offer an additional layer of protection; if breakage occurs, the PE coating keeps all liquid and glass splinters contained.
Chemical Synthesis
Widely used in the chemical industry for the synthesis of a variety of chemicals, including acetic anhydride, acetate esters, and acetic acid derivatives. It is an essential reagent in the production of synthetic fibres like rayon and acetate, as well as in the manufacture of plastics, solvents, and other industrial chemicals.
Laboratory Reagent
Acetic Acid is frequently used as a reagent in laboratories for various chemical reactions, including acid-base titrations, esterifications, and the preparation of buffer solutions. It is also used in histology and biological research to fix and preserve tissue samples.
Cleaning and Descaling
Commonly used as a powerful cleaning agent. It effectively dissolves mineral deposits, lime scale, and other stubborn residues found in industrial equipment, pipes, and machinery. It is also used in cleaning and descaling applications in laboratories and food processing plants.
Textile Industry
Used in the dyeing and finishing processes. It helps to set colours in fabrics and prevent colour fading, and is involved in the manufacture of acetate fibres. It also acts as a pH regulator in the preparation of dyes and other chemical solutions.
Production of Acetates
A key component in the production of acetate salts and esters, which are used in a variety of applications such as plastics, solvents, and synthetic fibres. Acetate esters, for example, are used as solvents in paints, coatings, and perfumes.
