Detail
Methanol
1 product standard:GB/T 338-2011
2 molecular formula: CH3OH
3 physical and chemical properties: ransparent
colorless, pure light, similar to ethanol;
rough stimulation unpleasant smell, density
0.791 G / mL at 25 °C, Flash Point 52 F (about
11 °C) . Inflammable, its vapor and air can
form an explosive mixture. Meet open fire,
high heat energy cause combustion explosion.
Contact with an oxidizing agent causes a
chemical reaction or combustion. In a fire, a
heated container is in danger of exploding. It
can spread to a considerable distance at a
lower point, and in the event of an open fire
it will lead to a backburn. Combustion
decomposes carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
It's highly toxic.
4 Main uses:
Alcohols are widely used as basic organic
chemical raw materials and high quality fuels.
Mainly used in fine chemicals, plastics and
other fields, used to manufacture
formaldehyde, acetic acid, chloromethane,
methyl amine, dimethyl sulfide and other
organic products, but also pesticides,
medicine, one of the important raw materials.
After deep processing, methanol can be used as
a new clean fuel and can also be blended with
gasoline for combustion. Methanol reacts with
ammonia to produce monomethylamine.
