Ethyl Acetate (EA) Product Introduction 
CAS: 141-78-6, UN number: 1173, molecular formula:  ( boldsymbol {C_4H_8O_2} ), is the most commonly used fast drying ester organic solvent, which is prepared by esterification of acetic acid and ethanol. 
1、 Basic physical and chemical indicators (industrial grade) 
-Appearance: Colorless transparent liquid with a fresh fruity aroma 
-Molecular weight: 88.1 
-Density (20 ℃): 0.902 g/cm ³ 
-Boiling point: 77.1 ℃ 
-Melting point: -83.6 ℃ 
-Flash point (closed cup): -4 ℃ Highly flammable 
-Explosion limit: 2.2% to 11.5% (volume fraction) 
-Ignition temperature: 426 ℃ 
-Solubility: Slightly soluble in water; It can be freely miscible with ethanol, acetone, toluene, xylene and other organic solvents 
>Characteristics: Fast evaporation rate, belonging to fast drying solvents; Under acidic/alkaline conditions, it will slowly hydrolyze to produce acetic acid and ethanol, and long-term storage will increase acidity. 
2、 Core Features 
Strong solubility: can dissolve nitrocellulose, acrylic resin, polyurethane SBS、 Chlorinated rubber, some epoxy resins, etc. are widely used in coating and ink systems. 
Fast evaporation, excellent drying speed, and less prone to film sagging. 
Clear odor, low residue, and lower toxicity compared to benzene solvents. 
Recyclable: Low boiling point, simple distillation recovery, suitable for recycling. 
3、 Main application areas (matching with your previous E51 epoxy) 
1. Coating industry: Nitro paint, acrylic paint, polyurethane paint, epoxy diluent, used as fast drying solvents to regulate the volatilization rate. 
2. Printing ink: plastic ink, gravure ink, fast drying, enhances gloss. 
3. Adhesives: Diluting solvents for adhesives, PU adhesives, and epoxy adhesives. 
4. Pharmaceuticals and spices: pharmaceutical extraction solvents; Edible essence (fruity raw material). 
5. Daily chemical: raw materials for nail polish remover; Cosmetic essence solvent. 
6. Analytical reagents: laboratory extraction, chromatographic solvents.
