N-Butyl Acetate (C6H12O2) is an organic compound, commonly used as a solvent. This clear, colorless liquid has a sweet, fruity odor and is highly effective in dissolving various resins, polymers, and oils. Due to its fast evaporation and excellent solvency properties, it is commonly used in the formulation of paints, coatings, and adhesives.
Industrial application and production:
Butyl acetate (cas no 123-86-4) is widely used as a solvent in various industries, including manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food production. It is a vital ingredient in the production of adhesives, lacquers, coatings, paints and fruit flavours. On an industrial scale, it is produced by esterifying n-butanol with acetic acid using strong acids as catalysts, typically solid acidic catalysts such as ion exchange resins.
