Product Overview

Acetone (Propanone) is the simplest ketone. It is a colorless, volatile, flammable liquid with a distinctive pungent odor. Acetone is miscible with water and serves as an important solvent in its own right, typically for cleaning purposes in the laboratory. About 6.7 million tonnes were produced worldwide in 2010, mainly for use as a solvent and production of methyl methacrylate and bisphenol A.

Ruvon International supplies high-purity (Min 99.5%) Acetone, sourced from major petrochemical complexes. It is a vital industrial chemical used as a solvent in the manufacture of plastics and other industrial products.

The "Super Solvent"

Acetone is renowned for its ability to dissolve many fats, resins, and cellulose esters. It is a primary component in many nail polish removers and paint thinners. Its high volatility means it evaporates quickly, leaving a dry surface, which is ideal for cleaning applications and fast-drying coatings. It is also a key precursor in the production of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA), which is used to make acrylic plastics (PMMA).

Safety & Handling Protocols

Extremely Flammable

Acetone vapor is heavier than air and can travel to ignition sources and flash back.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location, away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Keep container tightly closed.
  • PPE: Wear chemical resistant gloves (Butyl rubber), safety goggles, and face shield.
  • Health: Inhalation of high concentrations can cause headache, dizziness, and nausea. Use with adequate ventilation.
