Acetone is a colourless, flammable and highly volatile liquid with a pungent odour. It is an effective organic solvent for many plastics, synthetic fibers, difficult resins, waxes and adhesives.  Acetone is a smallest Ketone with the formula of CH3COCH3.

Did you know the human body produces and disposes Acetone through normal metabolic processes? It is normally present in blood and urine and diabetic patients produce Acetone in larger amounts.

Safety Features:

• The most hazardous characteristic of acetone is, it’s extremely flammable and burns with yellow bright flames. Although, accidental ignition is rare due to a very high ignition initiation point at 465 °C.
• Acetone forms in to acetone peroxide, which is a highly unstable explosive compound, as a by-product when mixed with Hydrogen Peroxide.
• Acetone has low acute and chronic toxicity if ingested and/or inhaled, not considered as a carcinogen or a mutagenic chemical.
• Acetone causes mild skin irritation and moderate to severe eye irritation. At high concentrations, it may depress the central nervous system like many other solvents.
