P. They can be found in Table 4, page 580 in the reference of Endnote O.
Q. Propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA) is a colorless liquid with
an ether-like odor. It is a relatively fast-evaporating, low-viscosity
solvent. Its synthesized in a two-step process. First methanol is
reacted with propylene oxide; then that product is esteried with
acetic acid.
R. A similar approach based on conventional least squares regression
was published by Tantishaiyakula V, Worakulb N, Wongpoowarak W.
