Methyl cedryl ether(CAS#19870-74-7)

Introduction

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to its properties, uses, manufacturing methods and safety information:

Quality:

- Methylcypress ether is a colorless liquid with a special ether aroma at room temperature.

- It has a low density (about 0.74 g/mL) and good solubility and can be dissolved in a variety of organic solvents.

Use:

- Methyl cypress ether is commonly used as a solvent and extractant and has been found to have important applications in the petroleum industry.

- It is a commonly used gasoline additive that can improve the knock resistance of the fuel and reduce the generation of emissions.

Method:

- Methylcypress ether is usually prepared by etherification of isobutylene and methanol. During the reaction, isobutylene and methanol undergo an etherification reaction under acidic conditions to form methyl cypress ether and obtain a corresponding acid (such as sulfuric acid).

Safety Information:

- Methylcypress ether is a flammable liquid with a low flash point and explosion limit. Avoid high temperatures, open flames and electrostatic sparks during operation.

- Methylcypress ether can irritate the eyes and skin, and high concentrations can cause respiratory irritation when inhaled. Take precautions when using it, such as wearing protective glasses, gloves and respirators.

- In the event of a leak, heat dissipation, ventilation and protective measures should be taken promptly, and waste should be treated and disposed of in compliance with relevant regulations.
