Introduction
Allyl acetate. Allyl acetate is a flammable liquid that forms an explosive mixture with air.One of the primary uses of allyl acetate is as an industrial solvent, which can be used to dissolve resins, paints, inks, and more. It is also widely used in the manufacture of synthetic fragrances and flavors, as well as as as an ingredient in rubber plasticizers and rubber binders.The preparation method of allyl acetate can generally be obtained by the esterification reaction between ethanol and acrylate. The specific steps are to mix ethanol and acrylate in a certain proportion, add an acid catalyst, heat reaction to obtain allyl acetate, and purify it by distillation.Its flammability should be kept away from fire sources and high temperatures. When storing and handling allyl acetate, proper ventilation measures should be taken to avoid inhalation of its vapors.
