The toxicity and harm of ethyl acetate are related to everyone's well-being and cannot be ignored. In terms of toxicity, although it is not highly toxic, it will also damage the body if it is accidentally touched. Inhalation of high-concentration ethyl acetate vapor can cause eye, nose and throat discomfort, and even cause headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms, affecting the nervous system. If the skin is exposed for a long time, it may cause dry, degreasing, and chapped skin, damaging the skin barrier. Splashing into the eyes can irritate the eyes, causing pain and discomfort.

In terms of harm, ethyl acetate is a flammable liquid. In case of open flames and high heat, it can cause combustion and explosion. During production, storage, and transportation, a little carelessness may lead to fire and explosion accidents, threatening the safety of people and property. And its vapor is heavier than air, and can spread to a considerable distance at a lower place. In case of fire, it will catch fire and backfire, increasing the dangerous range. In addition, in the environment, if ethyl acetate leaks in large quantities, it will cause pollution to water and soil and affect the ecological balance. Therefore, in the case of ethyl acetate, it is necessary to take protective measures and strictly regulate the operation to prevent its toxicity and harm from causing adverse consequences.
