Acetone — High-Purity Industrial Solvent
Acetone (CAS 67-64-1) is one of the most widely used organic solvents in the world, valued for its fast evaporation rate, excellent solvency power, and complete miscibility with water. RightPath Industries supplies high-purity acetone for industrial, laboratory, and manufacturing applications across the United States.
As a ketone solvent, acetone dissolves a broad range of resins, plastics, and coatings, making it indispensable in surface preparation, parts cleaning, and chemical synthesis. Its low boiling point (56°C) ensures rapid drying in coating and cleaning operations.
