1, banana oil is also known as natural water, isoamyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, 3- methyl butyl acetate and pear oil. Because of the banana flavor of amyl acetate or isoamyl acetate, it is named banana oil. Banana oil is a colorless, transparent and volatile liquid prepared from a variety of organic solvents. The main components are toluene, butyl acetate, cyclohexanone, isoamyl acetate and ethylene glycol ether acetate. Slightly soluble in water, soluble in various organic solvents, flammable, mainly used as solvent and diluent for paint. Banana oil is also used as a solvent in the production of many chemical products, coatings and adhesives. Now banana oil is not a common name for a single chemical substance, but a mixture of various organic solvents.
2, banana oil, its steam and air can form an explosive mixture, in case of open flame and high heat energy can cause combustion and explosion. It can react with oxidant. The flow velocity is too fast, which is easy to generate and accumulate static electricity. Its vapor is heavier than air, and it can spread to a considerable distance at a lower place, and it will catch fire when it meets a fire source. In case of high heat, the pressure inside the container will increase, which is in danger of rupture and explosion.
