Application
1). Food Flavoring: With wintergreen-like aroma, it can be used in chewing gum, toothpaste, candy and other food products as a spice to increase the flavor of the product, for example, a small amount of methyl salicylate will be added to certain mint-flavored chewing gums to enhance the refreshing taste and unique aroma.
2). Cosmetic fragrances: added to perfume, eau de toilette, skin care products and other cosmetics, to give the product a fresh and pleasant aroma, some herbal aroma skin care products may have methyl salicylate.
3). Industrial fragrances: in some air fresheners, detergents and other industrial products, can also be used as a fragrance to improve the odor.
Storage
1). Storage conditions
Temperature: It should be stored in a cool environment, and the temperature should be controlled below 25℃ to avoid high temperature leading to increased volatilization or chemical reaction of methyl salicylate.
Humidity: The storage environment should be kept dry, and the relative humidity should be below 60% to prevent the product from deteriorating due to humidity.
Light: It should be stored in a place protected from light, because light may trigger the photochemical reaction of methyl salicylate and affect its stability and quality, so it is usually stored in brown glass bottles or impervious containers.
2). Packaging requirements
Material: usually use containers made of glass, stainless steel or plastic to store methyl salicylate, these materials have better chemical stability and are not easy to react with methyl salicylate.
Sealing: The package must be sealed well to prevent the volatilization of methyl salicylate and the entry of external air, moisture and other impurities, usually use sealing gasket or sealant to seal the mouth of the container.
3). Storage Precautions
Keep away from ignition source and oxidizer: Methyl salicylate is flammable, it should be kept at a certain distance from ignition source and heat source, meanwhile, it should be avoided mixing and storing with oxidizers, because oxidizers may react violently with Methyl salicylate, which may cause danger.
Classified storage: It should not be mixed with other items such as food and medicine to prevent contamination, and should be stored separately in a specialized chemical storage area with good marking.
Stability
1). Chemical stability
Methyl salicylate is relatively stable at room temperature and pressure, but it is prone to hydrolysis under high temperature, strong acid and strong alkali to produce salicylic acid and methanol.
When exposed to air, it may be oxidized by oxygen in the air, resulting in dark color and quality degradation.
2). Physical stability
Methyl salicylate has a melting point of - 8.6°C and a boiling point of 223.3°C. It is liquid at room temperature and has a certain degree of volatility. If it is not stored properly, the volatilization rate will be accelerated in the environment with high temperature or poor ventilation, resulting in product loss.
At low temperature, methyl salicylate may solidify, but generally does not affect its chemical properties, when the temperature returns to room temperature, it can still return to the liquid state.
