N-Propyl Acetate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Propyl Acetate
- Normal Propyl Acetate
- NPAC
- Propyl Ethanoate
N-propyl acetate is a clear, colourless ester solvent used in industrial formulations in Malaysia. Also called normal propyl acetate, propyl acetate, NPAC or propyl ethanoate, it has a fruity, pear-like odour, a medium evaporation rate and low water miscibility.
Buyers commonly specify technical or industrial grade, typically at 99% assay or above, for solvent applications. Food or flavour grade is a separate commercial option where a flavour or fragrance formulation requires material of a suitable specification.
N-propyl acetate is used in solvent-based coatings, nitrocellulose lacquers, wood finishes, flexographic and gravure printing inks, adhesives and cleaning formulations. It may also be selected as a flavour or fragrance component, depending on the required grade and finished product specification.
This page covers the normal-propyl isomer only, not isopropyl acetate, n-butyl acetate or ethyl acetate. Send the grade, specification, quantity, application and delivery location with your enquiry; availability, packing and documentation are confirmed with the quotation.

N-Propyl Acetate applications
Common questions about n-propyl acetate
What is n-propyl acetate used for?
It is used as a solvent in coatings, lacquers, printing inks, adhesives and cleaning formulations, and as a component in selected flavour and fragrance products.
Are n-propyl acetate and normal propyl acetate the same product?
Yes. Normal propyl acetate, propyl acetate, NPAC and propyl ethanoate are accepted names for the n-propyl ester covered on this page.
Is n-propyl acetate the same as isopropyl acetate?
No. They are different structural isomers with different CAS numbers and evaporation behaviour. This page covers n-propyl acetate, CAS 109-60-4, and excludes isopropyl acetate.
Which n-propyl acetate grade should I request?
Technical or industrial grade is commonly used for coatings, inks, adhesives and cleaning formulations. Food or flavour grade should be specified where the intended formulation requires it.
What specification details should I provide for n-propyl acetate?
Provide the required grade and any limits for assay, water, acidity or other properties from your process specification. Exact values are confirmed against the quotation documents.
How can I request an n-propyl acetate price in Malaysia?
Send the grade, specification, quantity, application and delivery location. Price, availability, packing, documentation and timing are confirmed with the quotation.
