Nitroethane Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ethane, Nitro-
Nitroethane supplier enquiries in Malaysia typically come from industrial formulators, chemical processors and laboratories seeking a defined liquid solvent or synthesis input. Nitroethane, CAS 79-24-3, is used as a non-aqueous solvent and wetting agent as well as a chemical intermediate. Buyers should identify it precisely because neighbouring nitroalkanes are separate products.
Industrial or technical grade covers general process, formulation and intermediate duty where the buyer's specification sets the acceptance limits. High-purity or synthesis grade is requested for controlled reaction work, formulation development and laboratory use when tighter control of water, acidity, colour or non-volatile residue matters.
Relevant applications include selected coating and resin systems, speciality formulations and chemical synthesis routes that explicitly call for nitroethane. It should not be treated as interchangeable with nitromethane or another solvent solely because the products share a chemical family or process function.
Send the required grade, purity or specification, intended application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery arrangements are confirmed with the quotation.

Nitroethane grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial or technical-grade nitroethane | clear, colourless liquid | — | Solvent and wetting-agent duty in selected coating, resin and industrial formulations, or as a feedstock in chemical processing where the plant specification identifies nitroethane. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| High-purity or synthesis-grade nitroethane | clear, colourless liquid | — | Controlled synthesis, formulation development and laboratory work where tighter purity, water, colour or residue limits are specified. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Nitroethane applications
Common questions about nitroethane
What is nitroethane used for in industry?
Nitroethane is used as a solvent and non-aqueous wetting agent in selected coating, resin and speciality formulations. It also serves as a reaction solvent or intermediate in chemical synthesis routes that specifically require this nitroalkane.
Which nitroethane grade should I request?
Industrial or technical grade suits general process, solvent and intermediate duty when it meets the plant specification. High-purity or synthesis grade is the better starting point when water, colour, acidity or residue limits are more tightly controlled.
Are nitroethane and nitromethane the same chemical?
No. Nitroethane has CAS 79-24-3, while nitromethane is a separate nitroalkane with a different identity and specification. Buyers should send the exact product name and CAS number from their process document to avoid substitution.
What specifications should a nitroethane buyer provide?
State the required grade or minimum purity and any limits for water, acidity, colour and non-volatile residue. Include the application and the current specification so the proposed material can be checked before a quotation is issued.
Can nitroethane be requested for formulation development?
Yes. Describe the solvent or wetting function, required purity and relevant test limits in the enquiry. The offered grade should be evaluated against the formulation and process requirements rather than selected by name alone.
What information is needed for a nitroethane price enquiry in Malaysia?
Send the grade, specification, intended use, required quantity and delivery location. Add any packing and documentation requirements so availability, commercial terms and timing can be confirmed with the quotation.
