Food & Nutrition

Food packaging suppliers rely on AdvanSix resins and films to create products that keep food fresh.

We help extend the shelf life of food by producing the resins and films used to create food and beverage packaging of all types — rigid and flexible. Our products make food packaging lighter, more durable, and sustainable, while helping to preserve flavor and aromas.

How Our Products Are Used

Our chemicals are found in a range of food processing and food packaging applications.

AdvanSix Standard Grade Acetone

 

Acetone Standard Grade (also known as dimethyl ketone and 2-propanone) is a clear, colorless, low-boiling, flammable, volatile liquid characterized by rapid evaporation and a faintly aromatic, sweetish odor. It is readily miscible in most organic solvents and completely miscible, in all proportions, in water. Acetone is one of the simplest aliphatic ketones, and is an excellent solvent for a wide range of gums, resins, waxes, fats, greases, oils, dyestuffs and cellulosics. It is widely used as a chemical intermediate in the production of methyl isobutyl ketone and other solvents, and in the production of such important chemicals as bis-phenol-A and methyl methacrylate. It is also used in the manufacture of a wide variety of coatings and plastics.
