Acetic Acid 50% – CH₃COOH

Product Overview

This 50% v/v aqueous solution of acetic acid provides a mid-to-high strength concentration suitable for demanding acidification, cleaning, and chemical processing tasks. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a pungent vinegar-like odor, offering strong reactivity for applications requiring greater acidity than household vinegar but with more manageable handling properties than glacial acetic acid. It is widely used across industrial, lab, and formulation environments for its balance of potency and versatility.
