METHYL PROPYL SALICYLATE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Methyl propyl salicylate is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with the chemical formula C₁₀H₁₂O₃, used in various industrial and consumer applications. It is primarily employed as a fragrance ingredient in perfumes and cosmetics, and as a flavoring agent in foods and beverages. Methyl propyl salicylate is also used as a solvent in coatings, adhesives, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Despite its benefits, methyl propyl salicylate 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.
