What is Acetic Acid?
Acetic acid is a colorless liquid organic compound with a distinct sour taste and pungent odor, commonly known as the main component of vinegar apart from water. It is an important chemical reagent used in the production of numerous industrial and consumer products. Chemically represented as CH₃COOH, acetic acid is produced both synthetically and through bacterial fermentation. It serves as a vital raw material for manufacturing vinyl acetate monomer (VAM), acetic anhydride, and ester solvents. Additionally, it is used in food preservation, textiles, and pharmaceuticals. Due to its versatility and wide industrial applications, acetic acid holds a crucial role in the global chemical industry, making it a key driver in various end-use sectors such as paints, adhesives, plastics, and synthetic fibers.
