Zirconium propionate is an ill-defined compound containing propionate and zirconium(IV).[2] It is not soluble in water, but dissolves in isopropanol, ethanol and ethyl acetate.[2] When tamped or untamped, it has a density of 1.14 g/cm3 or 0.98 g/cm3 respectively.[2] It is used to promote adhesion in solvent-based inks.[3][4]
