What does Methyl Isobutyrate smell like?

Sharp, ethereal fruit ester: a quick, juicy flash of apple and pineapple with a sweet tutti-frutti edge and a faint floral hint. Its odour threshold is very low and it evaporates within about an hour, so it serves only as a top-note lift. Methyl 2-methylpropanoate.

Every regulatory join - IFRA, GHS, allergens - is by CAS number, and a material can supply one through its constituents as well as its own row, so of the 569 materials carrying no CAS number the 244 without a constituent table are the ones that return "nothing known" rather than "nothing applies". The blotter hours are sourced rather than measured by us, and the app labels every one of them an estimate. There is no physical chemistry on a row: no molecular weight, no vapour pressure, no boiling point. The longer answer, or the whole catalog counted.
