Product Overview
Dimethyl carbonate (DMC), 99%+ purity with extra dry grade, is a versatile, eco-friendly solvent and reagent widely used in organic synthesis, electrolyte formulations, and polymerization processes. The AcroSeal® packaging ensures minimal moisture contamination, making it ideal for moisture-sensitive reactions. This high-purity DMC offers excellent thermal stability and low toxicity compared to traditional solvents like methylene chloride or dimethylformamide. Its unique molecular structure enables it to act as a methylating agent, carbonylating reagent, and green solvent alternative. The extra dry specification guarantees water content below 50 ppm, critical for applications requiring anhydrous conditions. DMC’s low viscosity and high volatility make it suitable for fast-evaporating applications, while its miscibility with most organic solvents enhances its utility in complex reaction mixtures. The product is stabilized to prevent decomposition during storage and handling.
FAQs
1. What is the water content in this extra dry dimethyl carbonate?
The extra dry grade ensures water content is below 50 ppm, making it suitable for moisture-sensitive applications.
2. Can this DMC be used as a direct replacement for toxic solvents?
Yes, its low toxicity profile makes it a safer alternative to solvents like methylene chloride in many applications.
3. What type of reactions benefit most from AcroSeal® packaging?
Moisture-sensitive reactions like Grignard reactions, lithium battery electrolyte preparation, and certain polymerization processes.
4. How should this product be stored for long-term stability?
Store in a cool, dry place under inert atmosphere with the original AcroSeal® packaging tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption.
5. What’s the typical shelf life of this extra dry DMC?
When stored properly in unopened AcroSeal® containers, the product maintains its specifications for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.
