N-propyl Acetate Production Cost Reports

N-propyl Acetate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a N-propyl Acetate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of N-propyl Acetate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

N-propyl Acetate is a flammable chemical ester comprising five carbon, ten hydrogen, and two oxygen atoms. It is an ester with a chemical formula CH3COOCH2CH2CH3. Its molecular weight is 102.13 g/mol. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. It is prepared by the esterification of acetic acid with propanol. It has a mild, fruity fragrance with a bitter-sweet taste. Its melting and boiling point is measured at -93 °C and 101.6 °C, respectively.

Its flash point is measured at 14 °C. It is partially soluble in water and can be dissolved in other chemical solvents, including ether and alcohols such as ethanol. Similarly, it is miscible in linseed and castor oil as well. Its density is given by 0.8820 g/cu cm at 25 °C. It is a combustible chemical with a vapor pressure measuring 35.9 mm Hg at 25 °C and an autoignition temperature of 455 °C.

It decomposes on heating at an elevated temperature while emitting irritating fumes in the air. It is a chemical irritant with vapors heavier than air. It is a moderately toxic liquid and can react with strong oxidizers. The compound reacts rapidly with strong oxidizers, resulting in an exothermic reaction. It is a highly flammable chemical that can be ignited easily under fire conditions.

It majorly serves as a chemical solvent in manufacturing or preparing printing and coating materials. It is a good solvent that is highly used in industries that produce color-coating chemicals. It is used as a thinner that can be included in the formulation of many other organic chemicals. Moreover, it can be used in the preparation of wood lacquers and industrial finishes. It can be used in the printing industry, specifically in flexographic and special screening prints, etc. N-propyl Acetate is largely utilized in the production of nail care and aerosol sprays and certain cosmetics products as well.
