Acetic Acid Glacial Min 99.85% Glacial
Chemical Formula: CH₃COOH

Acetic Acid Glacial

Ethanoic Acid (Industrial / Pharma Grade)

A clear, colorless liquid with a strong, pungent odor characteristic of vinegar. "Glacial" refers to the anhydrous (water-free) form which solidifies into ice-like crystals at cool temperatures (16.6°C). It is a vital building block in the chemical industry.

CAS Number 64-19-7
H.S. Code 29152100
Appearance Clear Pungent Liquid

Product Overview

Acetic Acid Glacial is one of the most important organic chemicals. It is used in the production of Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM), which is the precursor for paints and adhesives. It is also essential for producing Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA), used in polyester manufacturing.

Ruvon International supplies high-purity (99.85% Min) Glacial Acetic Acid, sourced from leading Indian petrochemical giants. Our material is suitable for high-end applications like pharmaceuticals, food processing (as an acidity regulator), and chemical synthesis.

The "Glacial" Property

The term "Glacial" highlights the purity of the acid. Pure Acetic Acid freezes at 16.6°C (61.9°F), forming ice-like crystals. If your Acetic Acid doesn't freeze in a cold room, it likely contains water! This physical property is a quick on-site quality check. Ruvon guarantees a freezing point above 16.4°C, ensuring you pay for the chemical, not water.

Safety & Handling Protocols

Corrosive & Flammable

Glacial Acetic Acid causes severe skin burns and eye damage. Vapors are irritating to the respiratory system.

  • Storage: Store above 17°C to prevent freezing. If frozen, thaw slowly at room temperature (do not direct heat). Keep away from oxidizers.
  • PPE: Acid-resistant suit, rubber gloves, boots, and face shield are mandatory.
  • First Aid: In case of contact, wash immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
