Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary use of Liquid Butyl Acetate?
The primary industrial use of Liquid Butyl Acetate is as a high-performance solvent in the production of lacquers, varnishes, paints, coatings, and adhesives. It is also widely used as a process solvent in the pharmaceutical industry and as a flavoring agent in fruit essences.
What is the molecular weight and chemical formula of Liquid Butyl Acetate?
The chemical formula for Liquid Butyl Acetate is C6H12O2. The molecular weight (or molar mass) is approximately 116.16 g/mol.
How is Liquid Butyl Acetate prepared or synthesized industrially?
Liquid Butyl Acetate synthesis is performed commercially through the esterification of n-butanol and acetic acid. This involves reacting the components in the presence of an acid catalyst (such as concentrated sulfuric acid) under controlled heating to ensure excellent yield and optimal purity.
What is the Liquid Butyl Acetate structure and is it an ester?
Liquid Butyl Acetate consists of a butyl chain bonded to an acetate group via an ester linkage. Yes, because it contains the functional ester group (-COO-), the Liquid Butyl Acetate structure is classified as an organic aliphatic ester.
Is Butyl Acetate soluble in water?
Liquid Butyl Acetate is only slightly soluble in water, dissolving at approximately 0.7% by weight at 20 C. However, it is completely miscible with most organic solvents, which enhances its versatility as a heavy-duty industrial solvent.
What are the key physical properties, such as boiling point and density?
Key physical properties of high-purity Liquid Butyl Acetate include a boiling point of approximately 126.1 C and a density of 0.88 g/mL at 20 C. It appears as a completely clear, colorless liquid with a sweet, fruity fragrance.
What is a butyl acetate azeotrope?
Liquid Butyl Acetate forms a minimum-boiling azeotrope with water and certain alcohols. For instance, the butyl acetate-water azeotrope boils at roughly 90.2 C and contains approximately 71.3% butyl acetate by weight, a factor critical in chemical distillation and drying processes.
Is Liquid Butyl Acetate hazardous and what are the handling precautions?
Yes, Liquid Butyl Acetate is a flammable liquid and its vapors can cause dizziness or drowsiness upon inhalation. Handling requires strict safety measures, including proper localized ventilation, grounding of transfer equipment, and the use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
What is the common name or trade name for Liquid Butyl Acetate?
While the IUPAC standard name is butyl ethanoate, it is most commonly known as n-butyl acetate, normal butyl acetate, or simply butyl acetate solvent. It is almost universally traded across chemical networks using these designations.
