Ethyl acetate miscibility chart
There is a miscibility chart of ethyl acetate, which is quite important in the chemical industry. In this chart, the state of mixing ethyl acetate with various things can be seen.
All kinds of solvents, or perfectly soluble with ethyl acetate, are mixed and indistinguishable from each other; or only slightly soluble, slightly blending; there are also those that are absolutely insoluble, such as oil and water, each maintaining its own territory and distinct from each other.
In the pharmaceutical industry, in order to make excellent agents, the miscibility of ethyl acetate and various pharmaceutical solvents is required. If the miscibility is proper, the drug will be homogeneous and the efficacy will be easy to recognize; if the miscibility is good, the preparation may suffer from precipitation and stratification, and the efficacy will be difficult to meet expectations.
Another example is the way of chemical synthesis, many reactions use ethyl acetate as the medium. Knowing its miscibility chart can make good selection of other substances involved in the reaction, so that the reaction is smooth and the product is pure. Otherwise, or due to poor miscibility, the reaction is blocked, and it is difficult to work hard on the material.
In addition to the genus of paints and fragrances, ethyl acetate is often the key ingredient. By means of the miscibility chart, the raw materials are prepared to make the paint adhere appropriately and have a uniform color; the fragrance aroma is blended and the charm is long.
Although this chart is silent and intangible, it has the power of guidance in all kinds of chemical practices, which is related to the success or failure.
