Information on Zinc Acetate Dihydrate

Zinc Acetate is a derivative of Acetic Acid. Zinc Acetate is freely soluble in water. Zinc Acetate is a white crystalline powder. It should be stored in tightly closed containers in a Room Temperature.

Synthesis / Manufacturing Process of Acetates

The major raw material to all the acetates is Glacial Acetic Acid. Acetic Acid was initially prepared by aerobic fermentation of Ethanol. Ethanol was catalytically oxidised to Acetaldehyde, which in turn oxidised to Acetic Acid. Today Acetic Acid is prepared by carbonylating methanol to Acetic Acid in presence of a catalyst.
Zinc Acetate is manufactured by taking a reaction between Zinc Hydroxide & Acetic Acid.
