Ethyl acetate ACS is a clear liquid with a pleasant fruity smell. It is the ester formed by the combination of acetic acid and ethanol, having a chemical formula of C4H8O2. This substance can be mixed with most organic solvents commonly used (such as alcohols, ketones, glycols, and esters), although it has limited solubility in water. It is also referred to as ethyl ethanoate, acetic acid ethyl ester, acetoxyethane, 1-acetoxyethane, EtOAC, ETAC, or EA. Ethyl acetate is an economical chemical that serves various purposes.
