Dihydroterpinyl acetate(CAS#58985-18-5)

Introduction

Dihydroterpineyl acetate, also known as methyl methacrylate, is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor.

Dihydroterpineyl acetate has many uses. It is often used as a solvent for polymer materials and can be used to make plastics, fibers, and adhesives.

The preparation method of dihydroterpineyl acetate is relatively simple. A common preparation method is obtained by transesterification of formate ester with ethylene. The specific steps are as follows: the formate is dissolved in acetic acid, a transesterification catalyst (such as an alkali catalyst) is added, and ethylene is added. After the reaction, distillation separates the dihydroterpineyl acetate.

It is a flammable liquid and should be kept away from open flames and high temperatures. Protective gloves and goggles should be worn when in use, and good ventilation should be maintained. When storing, it should be sealed and kept away from fire and oxidants.
