Sourcing Ethyl Acetate (Urethane & Industrial Grade)? ChemicalDekho connects buyers with premier manufacturers like Jubilant Ingrevia. The platform facilitates the procurement of this fast-evaporating ester for packaging and pharmaceutical sectors.
Ethyl Acetate (CAS 141-78-6) is a critical solvent for printing inks (flexo/gravure), adhesives, and flexible packaging laminations. The Urethane grade available on the platform features ultra-low moisture content, essential for PU coatings and hardeners. It is also widely used as an extraction solvent in API manufacturing.
The platform lists reliable supply chains for high-purity material, offering sealed drum and tanker delivery with complete quality certification.

Vapor/air mixtures are explosive. Flash point -4°C. Keep away from ignition sources. Use non-sparking tools.
Urethane Grade has extremely low water content (<0.05%), which is critical for PU applications because water reacts with isocyanates to cause bubbling/foaming in coatings.
Yes, it is an excellent solvent for cleaning grease, oils, and resins, but it is highly flammable and can damage some plastics.
Typically 1 year if stored properly. Presence of moisture can cause hydrolysis, turning it back into ethanol and acetic acid.
It is primarily produced through the Fischer esterification of ethanol and acetic acid, typically using a sulfuric acid catalyst.
