A chemical compound or derivative combining acetyl groups with tannin structures, potentially used in analytical chemistry or materials science.
From acetic acid + tannin + -in (chemical suffix). This term describes modified tannins with acetyl groups attached.
Acetannin represents the intersection of plant chemistry and synthetic modification—tannins are natural astringent compounds from plants, and adding acetyl groups changes their properties for industrial use.
