    Esters are used in manufacturing cosmetics and perfumes due to their small molecules that easily evaporate and produce fragrant smells. Esters also serve as food flavorings, such as methyl butanoate producing an apple flavor, penthyl ethanoate producing a banana flavor, and ethyl butanoate producing a pineapple flavor. Additional examples of ester uses include ethyl ethanoate as a solvent in lotions, nail varnishes, lacquers and glue, oils and fats between fatty acids and glycerol used in soap production, and polyester polymers for synthetic fabrics.
