Description

Amyl Acetate, Mixture Of Isomers is a versatile organic ester solvent known for its characteristic fruity, banana-like odor. Its primary value lies in its excellent solvency for a wide range of resins, oils, and cellulose derivatives, coupled with a favorable evaporation rate. This makes it a critical component for manufacturers in the coatings, printing inks, and adhesive industries seeking reliable performance and consistent quality in their formulations.

Application

• Solvent for Coatings and Lacquers: A key ingredient in nitrocellulose lacquers, acrylics, and other surface coatings, providing good flow and leveling properties.
• Printing Inks: Used as a solvent in flexographic and gravure printing inks, contributing to rapid drying and high gloss.
• Adhesive Formulations: Acts as an effective solvent in contact cements and other adhesive systems requiring strong solvency and controlled evaporation.
• Flavor and Fragrance Industry: Serves as a flavoring agent (banana, pear notes) in food products and as a fragrance component in perfumes and cosmetics.
• Chemical Synthesis and Extraction: Employed as a reaction medium or extraction solvent in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical processes.
• Cleaning and Degreasing Agents: An effective component in industrial cleaners and degreasers for removing oils, greases, and waxes.

Quality Control

Our Amyl Acetate, Mixture Of Isomers is produced under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, identity, and physical properties. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and ignition points. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain product integrity. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
