Diacetone alcohol is a colorless liquid with a mild odor, represented by the chemical formula C6H12O2. It is used as a solvent and in the manufacture of certain chemicals. Diacetone alcohol is relatively non-toxic but can cause skin and respiratory irritation upon exposure. Proper handling, storage, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety.
