METHYL ISOVALERATE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Methyl isovalerate is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with the chemical formula C₆H₁₂O₂, used in various industrial and chemical applications. It is primarily employed as a flavoring agent in foods and beverages, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Methyl isovalerate is also used in the production of fragrances and as a solvent in coatings and adhesives. Despite its utility, methyl isovalerate can cause skin, eye, and respiratory irritation if not handled properly. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to ensure safe usage and prevent exposure.
