Glycol Ether PMP - PMP

Glycol ether PMP, also called propylene glycol methyl ether propionate, is the ether of propylene oxide and methanol. The characteristic hydroxide functional group is capped by a propionate ion, therefore decreasing acidity and improving miscibility in organic solvents compared to classic glycol ethers.
