ETHYL VALERATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Ethyl valerate is an ester that is commonly used in the manufacture of perfumes, flavors, and fragrances. It is also used as a solvent for paints and coatings, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals.
When exposed to ethyl valerate, rubber components can experience swelling, cracking, and discoloration. This can lead to a decrease in the lifespan of the rubber material and eventual failure of the product. Additionally, ethyl valerate can cause the rubber to become brittle and prone to cracking or breaking, leading to a loss of performance and potential safety risks.
