Description: Ethyl propionate is a sweet, rum-smelling ester of propionic acid and ethanol. It is less volatile and safer option for chlorinated solvents, toluene, benzene, MTBE, hexane, or even ethyl acetate. A study by Zakko and co-workers established that ethyl propionate is less toxic and more user-friendly than MTBE (Zakko, S. F., Gastroenterology, 1997, 113: 232-237). In biofuel applications, ethyl propionate is mentioned as the reference short chain fatty acid ester used as a first generation biodiesel (Andersen, V. F., J. Phys. Chem A. 2012, 116, 21, 5164-5179) In air care applications, the rum scent of ethyl propionate is irresistible resulting its use as a pineapple, rum-like odorant.Other mainstream applications include fuel additivecleaning solutions additiveCosmetic additivenickel electroplating additivespecialty reagent in plastic, rubber, dyes, and medicinal drug manufacturingspecialty solvent Product ID: ETPRO CAS: 105-37-3 Formula: C5H10O2 MW: 102.13g/mol Density: 0.86-0.90g/ml BP: 96-102C Flash point: 10-14C
