Acetic Acid Glacial 99% FCC/Food Grade, Kosher, Halal

Acetic Acid Glacial 99% FCC/Food Grade, Kosher, Halal

Acetic Acid Glacial (CAS 64-19-7) is a USP/FCC (Food) Grade organic acid supplied at a minimum assay of 99.7%, with total acetic acid content verified at 99.5%–100.5% (molecular formula C₂H₄O₂, molecular weight 60.05 g/mol). It's called “glacial” because, near its 16°C melting point, the concentrated acid freezes into ice-like crystals — a sign of just how little water it contains. It ships as a clear, colorless liquid with a sharp, vinegar-like odor, is fully miscible in water, and is Kosher Certified (Kosher ID: PQE-QDLS) and Halal Certified. It is manufactured GMO-free and carries GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status for food-grade use. Every order includes instant access to the Certificate of Analysis (COA), Safety Data Sheet (SDS), Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Allergen Statement, Country of Origin Declaration, GMO-Free Statement, and Kosher and Halal certificates — no request or wait required.

This food-grade glacial acetic acid is used across food & beverage production as an acidulant, pH regulator, and preservative; as a raw-material reagent in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturing; in botanical and cannabis/hemp extraction; and in industrial chemical synthesis such as solvent and ester production. Its FCC/USP purity and full compendial documentation make it a fit for manufacturers who need audit-ready paperwork on file, while its Kosher and Halal certifications support production lines serving those markets.

Q: What is Acetic Acid Glacial 99% FCC/Food Grade used for?

A: It's used as a food-grade acidulant, pH regulator, and preservative in food & beverage production; as a reagent/raw material in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and botanical/cannabis extraction processes; and in industrial chemical synthesis and solvent production.

Q: Is this product Kosher and Halal certified?

A: Yes. This SKU is both Kosher Certified (Kosher ID: PQE-QDLS) and Halal Certified, and is manufactured GMO-free with GRAS status for food-grade use.

Q: Is Acetic Acid Glacial USDA Organic certified?

A: No. This SKU is not currently USDA Organic certified. It is FCC/Food Grade, Kosher, and Halal certified.

Q: What sizes are available, and does it ship as hazmat?

A: Sizes range from 500 mL to 55-gallon drums, plus case and pallet quantities. Containers of 1 gallon and larger ship as a regulated hazardous material (flammable/corrosive liquid); 500 mL and 1 L ship as standard, non-hazmat parcel.

Q: How do I get the SDS and Certificate of Analysis (COA)?

A: Both are available immediately in the Product Manuals tab on this page, along with the Technical Data Sheet, Allergen Statement, GMO-Free Statement, and Kosher/Halal certificates — no request needed.

Q: What's the difference between glacial acetic acid and diluted acetic acid solutions (like vinegar)?

A: “Glacial” means concentrated, near-pure acetic acid (99.5%–100.5%), while household vinegar and lab solutions are acetic acid diluted in water (commonly 5%–56%).

Q: Can this be used as an herbicide or weed killer?

A: Diluted acetic acid solutions (roughly 5%–20%, vinegar-strength) are sometimes used as a contact, non-selective herbicide for organic weed control. This SKU is glacial (concentrated) grade intended primarily for food, pharmaceutical, and industrial use, and would need to be safely diluted and handled per the SDS before any agricultural application.
