A colorless, volatile, flammable liquid with a characteristic pungent odor. It is the simplest ketone and miscible with water, making it a universal solvent for many plastics, synthetic fibers, and other organic materials.
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.

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).
Powerful solvent for varnishes, lacquers, and paint removers.
Precursor for Bisphenol A (BPA) and Methyl Methacrylate (MMA).
Extraction solvent for hormones, vitamins, and antibiotics.
Primary ingredient in nail polish removers and skin treatments.
Solvent for spinning cellulose acetate fibers.
Cleaning solvent for precision parts and degreasing.
Standard industrial packing for safe transport.
Bulk supply (18MT - 24MT) for large consumers.
Acetone vapor is heavier than air and can travel to ignition sources and flash back.
