What Is Glacial Acetic Acid
Glacial Acetic Acid is nothing but acetic acid that contains less than 1% water; therefore, it is also known as anhydrous acetic acid. When this anhydrous acetic acid is maintained at a temperature of 16.7℃ (freezing point), it turns into a solid acetic acid crystal.

What is Glacial Acetic Acid used for?
Anhydrous acetic acid is not only a solvent but also a catalyst:
1.It is an essential raw material for synthesising chemicals like acetic anhydride, acetate esters, terephthalic acid, and vinyl acetate monomer (VAM), which are used to synthesise adhesives, paints, and textiles.
2.Glacial Acetic acid is used as a catalyst in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and as a solvent for the formulation of drugs like aspirin. It is also used to manufacture vitamins, antibiotics, and hormones.
3.The diluted form of Acetic Acid Glacial inhibits microbial growth and helps maintain the freshness of fruits and vegetables; therefore, it is used as a preservative in the food industry. When this pure acid is added to pickles, it enhances the tangy taste, hence used as a flavouring agent. It also helps stabilize the pH of juices & flavoured drinks. Apart from this, it is also used as a disinfectant to clean the food preparation surfaces.
4.This acetic acid glacial is also useful for analytical chemistry experiments like titration and more.
