Chemical Compounds

The biggest use of ethanoic acid is to produce compounds important to a variety of industries. The single largest application for ethanoic acid is the synthesis of vinyl acetate monomer, a component in adhesives and paints. Esters of ethanoic acid act as solvents for coatings, paints, varnish removers and inks. Cellulose acetate, a textile and a component of photographic film, is produced from the anhydride of ethanoic acid. Acetic anhydride is also used in the production of heroin.

Uses of Vinegar

Vinegar is a 4 to 18 percent aqueous solution of ethanoic acid. Table vinegar is usually diluted to a strength of no greater than 8 percent ethanoic acid. Wonderful when mixed with olive oil and poured on salads, vinegar is also important for pickling vegetables and as a culinary ingredient. Sipping vinegars are enjoyed as a pungent drink. Vinegar is useful as a household cleaner and is especially effective for cleaning glass and mirrors.
