Methanol

name:Methanol also as Methylol Methanol is a colorless alcohol, hygroscopic and completely miscible with water, but much lighter (specific gravity 0.8). It is a good solvent, but very toxic and extremely flammable. This simple single carbon alcohol is a volatile solvent and a light fuel. CAS NO.:67-56-1 MOL WT.: CH3OH 32.042 specifications Purity WT% 99.85 MIN PM Test - 50 MIN Specfic Gravity 20/20∩ 0.7920 0.7930 Color APHA 5 MAX Distil Range ∩ 64.5 65.5 Non-Volatile Contest /100 5 MAX Odor - PASS Water WT ppm 1000 MAX Acidity & Alkanity WT ppm 30 MAX Acetone WT ppm 30 MAX Hydro Carbon - PASS Cl WT ppm 0.1 MAX Boiling Point ∩ 64.5 Freezing Point ∩ 97.8 Flash Point ∩ 16 (OPEN TYPE) 12 (CLOSED TYPE) Explosion Point wt % 36.5 Ignition Point ∩ 470 package: iron drum or tank Storage: tanks for methanol are made of carbon steel. Outdoor storage is preferred, with the following safety precautions: keep away from ignition sources and excessive heat; wear goggles; rubber gloves; chemical cartridge respirator; aprons and boots. usage: Formaldehyde production is the largest market for methanol, followed by the fast growing market for MTBE. It is also used to produce acetic acid, fuels, solvents and methyle derivatives. if you are interested in our methanol please feel free to contact us we can offer you the best quality and services at the most competitive price!
