China acetonitrile colorless liquid acetonitrile indurstrial grade acetonitrile

Short Description:

Acetonitrile is an organic compound with a molecular formula of C2H3N. It is a colorless liquid, highly volatile with a special odor similar to ether.It has excellent solvent properties. It can dissolve a variety of organic, inorganic and gaseous substances. It has certain toxicity and is infinitely miscible with water and alcohol. Acetonitrile can undergo typical nitrile reactions,is used to prepare many typical nitrogen-containing compounds,is an important organic intermediate.Acetonitrile can be used as a solvent for the synthesis of vitamin A, cortisone, carbonamine drugs and their intermediates, also used as an active medium solvent for the manufacture of vitamin B1 and amino acids .Alternative to chlorinated solvents. Used in vinyl coatings, also used as extractant for fatty acids, alcohol denaturant, butadiene extractant and solvent for acrylonitrile synthetic fibers.Also has many usages in fabric dyeing, lighting, perfume manufacturing and photosensitive material manufacturing.
