xen Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Be careful if You buy a large quanity as you may come to the attention of the authorities as Acetone has something to do with bomb construction. (I don't know what as i don't know too many friendly terriorists.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPI Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 yea,but it is mixed with other things i need pure acetone. What are you making? Home brew? Sambuka? Actually, 55ml to 38ltrs of fuel will increase your mileage by at least 10% (petrol, diesel etc). the acetone helps the fuel to atomise giving a cleaner, more efficient burn (cuts down of pollution as well, thanks for asking!)

womble Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Bomb construction is not it's only illicit use........ Yes you will find acetone in some Pharmacies, along with h2so4, however maybe not in the quantities required.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From wiki...... Some automotive enthusiasts add acetone at around 1 part in 500 to their fuel, following claims of improvement in fuel economy and engine life.[9] Systematic testing has determined that acetone has no measurable effect on fuel economy or may in fact reduce engine life by adversely affecting fuel system parts.[10][11] The effect of acetone on fuel economy was addressed on the popular American TV show MythBusters in 2006, in which they observed a decrease on fuel economy. hmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
