Butyric Acid - Chemical resistance

Butanoic Acid, Propanecarboxylic Acid

It is found in small amounts in butter and cheese and is also produced by the human body and some intestinal bacteria as a by-product of fermentation. It is also commonly used in perfumes and flavours, specifically as a food additive for butter and cheese flavours.
