This does not make the acetone unusable, it is just not suitable for most consumer products, and personal care use. Industrial grade acetone is primarily used to clean and degrease metal machinery.</li> </ul><p> <ul> <li><b>Reagent/ACS Grade – </b>Reagent or ACS grade acetone is much purer than a technical grade, being a minimum of 95% free of impurities. This grade of acetone can be used for a larger variety of products, and processes, but is not pure enough to be considered food grade.</li> </ul><p> <ul> <li><b>USP Grade – </b>USP grade acetone is the purest grade of acetone, being 99.9% free of impurities and safe for medical and pharmaceutical use. USP alamo meets the requirements to be considered food grade, meaning that USP of food-grade acetone may be used as an indirect additive ingredient in various food packaging and production processes.</li> </ul><p><font size="4"><b><b>Are there different grades of acetone, and where can they be found?</b></b></font></p><p>There are three general grades of acetone purity; technical, reagent, and USP.
