Asidi ya Acetic ndi asidi wokhuta wa carboxylic wokhala ndi maatomu awiri a kaboni ndipo ndi chinthu chofunikira kwambiri chokhala ndi okosijeni chochokera ku ma hydrocarbon. Fomula yake ya molekyulu ndi C₂H₄O₂, yokhala ndi fomula yomangira CH₃COOH, ndipo gulu lake logwira ntchito ndi gulu la carboxyl. Monga gawo lalikulu la viniga, glacial acetic acid imadziwikanso kuti acetic acid. Mwachitsanzo, imapezeka makamaka mu mawonekedwe a esters mu zipatso kapena mafuta a masamba, pomwe m'maselo a nyama, zotuluka, ndi magazi, glacial acetic acid imapezeka ngati asidi waulere. Viniga wamba uli ndi 3% mpaka 5% acetic acid.

Zambiri zomwe zapezeka pazaka zoposa 20 monga wogulitsa kunja kwa glacial acetic acid. Dinani apa kuti mupeze mtengo.
