High Quality Acetonitrile 75-5-08

Introduction:

Acetonitrile is an organic compound, the molecular formula is C2H3N, is a colorless liquid, extremely volatile, has a special smell similar to ether, has excellent solvent properties, can dissolve a variety of organic, inorganic and gaseous substances.It has some toxicity and is infinitely mutually soluble with water and alcohol.Acetonitrile is an important organic intermediate because it can undergo typical nitrile reactions and is used to prepare many typical nitrogen-containing compounds .

Acetonitrile has many uses, including as a solvent, for spinning fibers, and in lithium batteries. It is primarily found in air from automobile exhaust and manufacturing facilities. Acute (short-term) inhalation exposure results in irritation of mucous membranes. Chronic (long-term) exposure results in central nervous system effects, such as headaches, numbness, and tremors. No data are available on its carcinogenic effects in humans; EPA has classified it as a Group D, not classifiable as to human carcinogenicity.
