Ethyl acetate, with the chemical formula CH3COOCH2CH3, is a colorless liquid renowned for its sweet,fruity aroma reminiscent of bananas or pears. As a common ester, it possesses a molar mass of approximately 88.11 g/mol and a density of 0.902g/mL at 20 °C, making it less dense than water. It has a low freezing point of -83.6 °ºC (-118.5 F) and boils at 77.1 °C (170.8 F), remaining liquid under typical room conditions. Slightly soluble in water but highly miscible with organic solvents like ethanol and acetone, it exhibits balanced solubility that enhances its utility across industries.
As a leading ethyl acetate China manufacturer, Ruiyang Chemical delivers high-purity ethyl acetate 141 78 6 supported by strict ISO-certified quality control, stable supply capacity, and professional hazardous chemical logistics.
