High-Purity Glacial Acetic Acid 99.8 for Industrial and Laboratory Use

Glacial Acetic Acid as an Electrolyte Applications and Characteristics

The high concentration of glacial acetic acid has several important applications. In the food industry, it is the primary component of vinegar, used as a preservative and flavoring agent. Its ability to inhibit bacterial growth makes it valuable in food preservation.

Anhydrous acetic acid plays a crucial role in numerous industrial processes. One of its primary applications is as a chemical feedstock for the production of various chemicals. For example, it is integral in synthesizing acetate esters, which are employed in the production of solvents, plastics, and synthetic fibers. Acetic anhydride, another chemical derived from acetic acid, is used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and in the acetylation of cellulose.

Glacial acetic acid, chemically represented as CH₃COOH, is a colorless and highly concentrated form of acetic acid. It typically contains around 99% to 100% acetic acid, distinguishing it from the more common vinegar-like solutions, which only contain about 5% to 20% acetic acid. The term glacial refers to the fact that this pure form of acetic acid can solidify at low temperatures, resembling ice. With a melting point of about 16.6°C (61.9°F), glacial acetic acid is an important compound in both industrial and laboratory settings.
