China, Germany, and the United States are the leading exporters of Isopropyl acetate (CAS 108-21-4), collectively accounting for over 60% of global export value in 2023–2024, while major importers include South Korea, India, and Mexico—reflecting strong demand from regional coatings, pharmaceutical, and electronics manufacturing sectors. Trade volumes have remained relatively stable year-on-year, with modest growth in Asian imports coinciding with upward pressure on Isopropyl acetate prices amid tightening supply from key European producers.
Isopropyl acetate is a clear, colorless, volatile liquid with a characteristic fruity odor. It is an ester and organic solvent, boiling at approximately 88–89 °C and melting at −73.5 °C. Primarily used as a medium-evaporating solvent, it finds widespread application in coatings, inks, adhesives, and cleaning formulations due to its favorable solvency power and low water solubility. It serves as a processing aid and diluent in the production of cellulose acetate, acrylics, and vinyl resins, and is employed in the formulation of industrial and maintenance coatings, including automotive refinishes and wood finishes.
Solvent for cellulose derivatives, plastics, oils and fats; in perfumery.
Isopropyl acetate has an intense, fruity odor. On dilution, it has a sweet apple-like flavor.
