DIYChemicals | Methanol Industrial Grade | 1 Quart Features
-
Clear Liquid 🧪: Methanol is a clear liquid chemical, used as a feedstock to produce chemicals such as acetic acid and formaldehyde, which in turn are used in products like adhesives, foams, plywood subfloors, solvents and windshield washer fluid.
-
Uses 🧪: Methanol is primarily used as an industrial solvent to help create inks, resins, adhesives, and dyes. It is also used as a solvent in the manufacture of important pharmaceutical ingredients and products such as cholesterol, streptomycin, vitamins and hormones.
-
Methyl Alcohol 🧪: Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, is a highly versatile chemical widely used for industrial purposes and prevalent in our everyday lives. Its efficiency as an energy carrier has made it increasingly common as a fuel for factories and for electricity generation.
-
Characteristics 🧪: Small amounts of methanol occur naturally in many living organisms as part of their metabolic processes. For example, methanol occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables.
-
Made in the USA 🧪: We at DIYChemicals take pride in manufacturing our Methanol 100% in the United States. This ensures ultimate purity and quality for our customers while they can support our American business!"
About DIYChemicals | Methanol Industrial Grade | 1 Quart
Methanol is a type of alcohol made primarily from natural gas. It’s a base material in acetic acid and formaldehyde, and in recent years it is also increasingly been used in ethylene and propylene. Mixing methanol with substances like these enables it to be used as an intermediate material to make literally thousands of methanol and methanol derivative products used in practically every aspect of our lives. In industrial settings, methanol is produced synthetically by a multi-step process involving natural gas and a process called “steam reforming.” In the past, methanol was once made by the distillation of wood, which is why it is also called wood alcohol. The distillation of wood is the process in which wood is heated to form charcoal and vapors. The vapors are condensed and collected to form a brownish liquid, creating methanol. Methanol is available commercially in various purity grades. Commercial methanol is generally classified according to ASTM purity grades A and AA. Both grade A and grade AA purity are 99.85% methanol by weight. Grade "AA" methanol contains trace amounts of ethanol as well. Methanol–water mixtures have autoprotolysis constants between 14 (water) and 16.6 (methanol), so neutral in these mixtures ranges from pH 7 to pH 8.3.
