General description
This ACS grade Acetone is a drop-in replacement for any Acetone application. Made from 100% renewable carbon (verified through C14 ASTM D6866-16 testing) and produced in an environmentally friendly way that reduces the carbon footprint of production and reliance on fossil-fuels.
Because it is not from petroleum, it is free from many non-renewable contaminants, such as benzene, phthalates and other phenols, leading to higher quality product.
Application
- Used as a solvent and/or building block in organic syntheses, such as SN2 reactions and Jones oxidation
- Mobile phase in Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and other analytical applications
This is a plant waste-derived acetone, that acts as a drop-in replacement for any acetone application with no change in procedure or equipment necessary.
Features and Benefits
- Made from Renewable Resource
- Replacement for Petroleum-based Acetone
- Renewable Carbon Content - ≥99.9%
- ASTM D6866 - Standard Test Methods for Determining the Biobased Content

What is a BioRenewable solvent?
BioRenewable solvents are sourced from renewable and sustainable biobased materials, such as soy/palm oil, wood waste, hay or corn byproducts, etc. It is important to highlight that our BioRenewable products do not compete with food production.
Why should you use BioRenewable solvents?
You will contribute to create a sustainable world, significantly lowering environmental impact. Biorenewable solvents also decrease petroleum sources dependency, have higher recovery rates, and/or are safer for handling and disposal.
Do BioRenewable solvents have a similar quality to petroleum-based solvents?
BioRenewable solvents can have the same or higher purity level compared to traditional solvents. These solvents are free of the many byproducts of petroleum manufacturing, such as benzene, aldehydes, and ethers.
