Product Description

Detailed information about the product

Product Overview

Acetone 99.5% AR/ACS (CAS No. 67-64-1) is a high-purity analytical reagent grade organic solvent intended for analytical, research, pharmaceutical, and quality control laboratories. It is a clear, colourless, highly volatile liquid belonging to the ketone family and is completely miscible with water and a wide range of organic solvents. Owing to its excellent solvent properties, rapid evaporation, and consistent chemical quality, acetone is one of the most extensively used laboratory solvents for analytical procedures, reagent preparation, and routine laboratory operations.

The AR/ACS (Analytical Reagent / American Chemical Society) grade is manufactured to meet the stringent quality requirements expected for analytical laboratory applications where dependable purity and reproducible performance are essential. This grade is widely employed in chemical analysis, quality assurance laboratories, research institutions, pharmaceutical laboratories, and educational facilities requiring a reliable analytical reagent for routine laboratory procedures and analytical method development.
