Acetic acid
Glacial acetic acid, chemically known as acetic acid, with the chemical formula CH₃COOH, is an extremely important organic chemical raw material. Its melting point is 16.6℃; boiling point is 118.1℃ (101.7 kPa); relative density is 1.05 (20℃); vapor density is 2.07; vapor pressure is 1.52 (20℃); autoignition point is 426℃; refractive index is 1.3716; it is readily soluble in water, soluble in ethanol, ether, and glycerol, but insoluble in carbon disulfide.
Acetic acid plays an important role in many fields such as industry, medicine, and environmental protection due to its unique properties and wide range of applications.
