My research noted that Ethyl Acetate is usually stored in very sealed materials and in a special ventilated cabinet in labs, because of its fast evaporation, Mine came sealed in a tin container with a metal seal that I can already see being an issue after opening.
I need a solution on how to reseal the opening of the container. Any ideas would be appreciated, especially if you already dealt with this issue.
My current ideas:
-Use teflon tape and seal with the metal (tin?) cap to prevent leaks from the opening,
-high density polyethylene (HDPE) container or custom HDPE cap,
-glass with silicone cap,
-alluminum foil under the cap to tighten the potential leak,
-put container into a plastic bag and seal to prevent smell, but no real solution to problem.
