Methanol

Uses

[Uses 1]

Mainly used to prepare formaldehyde and used as methylating agent and solvent in organic synthesis. It is the raw material of methyl tert-butyl ether and can also be used as automobile fuel.

[Uses 2]

Used as analytical reagents and chromatographic analysis reagents, and also used in organic synthesis

[Uses 3]

Reagents for the separation of calcium sulfate and magnesium sulfate, the separation of strontium bromide and barium bromide, and the determination of boron

[Uses 4]

Extraction solvent. The maximum allowable residual content of the finished product is: 50 mg/kg of spice oleoresin and 2.2 mg/kg of hop extract.

GB 2760-96 is listed as a food processing aid.

[Uses 5]

One of the basic organic raw materials, it is mainly used to manufacture a variety of organic products such as formaldehyde, acetic acid, methyl chloride, methylamine and dimethyl sulfate. It is also a raw material for pesticides (insecticides, acaricides), medicines (sulfonamides, synmycin, etc.), and one of the raw materials for the synthesis of terephthalate Formic Acid dimethyl ester, methyl methacrylate and methyl acrylate. It is also an important solvent and can also be mixed with gasoline and used as an alternative fuel. Since the 1980s, Methanol has been used to produce gasoline octane additives such as methyl tert-butyl ether, Methanol gasoline, Methanol fuel, and Methanol protein, which has greatly promoted the development of Methanol production and market demand.
