Acetamide is used as an industrial solvent, plasticizer, wetting and penetrating agent. It is also used for the transamidation of carboxamides in 1,4-dioxane. It finds application in lacquers and soldering flux. Further, it acts as a precursor to thioacetamide.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
