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

Methyl acetate is a colorless, volatile liquid with a fruity odor, used in various industrial and chemical applications. It is primarily employed as a solvent in the production of coatings, adhesives, and inks, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Methyl acetate is also used as a flavoring agent in food and beverages. Despite its utility, methyl acetate is highly flammable and poses significant health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage. Adequate ventilation and spill containment measures are also necessary to prevent accidents and ensure safety.
