Ethyl Vinyl Ether

As a specialty solvent, ethyl vinyl ether finds application in the polymer industry, particularly in the production of specialty resins and coatings. It can act as a cosolvent or reaction medium during polymerization, helping to form specific polymer structures and properties.

Ethyl vinyl ether has been explored as a fuel additive. Its oxygen-containing functional groups can improve the combustion efficiency of fuels, thereby reducing emissions and improving fuel performance.

Ethyl vinyl ether is extremely flammable and should be handled with care. Proper storage and handling procedures, including adequate ventilation and fire protection, are essential to reduce risks. Information on its acute toxicity is limited, but it is generally considered to be low. However, prolonged or repeated exposure may irritate the respiratory system and skin.

Ethyl vinyl ether is biodegradable under aerobic conditions, although the specific degradation pathways may vary. Its environmental impact is primarily related to its flammability and potential as a volatile organic compound (VOC).
