What is DMC solvent used for?
Dimethyl Carbonate DMC solvent is a perfect methylating agent, carbonylating agent, with active chemical properties. It can be used into produce polypropylene carbonate. In pharmaceutical and pesticide, DMC can be used into produce ciprofloxacin and carbadox. Also it is a indispensable raw material to produce lithium battery electrolyte. Because of its excellent chemical and environmental property, recently dimethyl carbonate is acting as a good solvent for coating, paints, ink and adhesive substituting the benzene, xylene, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, acetone, butanone, toluene. It is an ideal substitute for toxic substances such as phosgene, dimethyl sulphate, etc. In a word, it is green chemical.
Safety Protection:
It has a mild irritating effect on the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. The raw material phosgene used in the phosgene process is highly toxic. The equipment must be strictly sealed, ventilation must be strengthened, and operators must wear various protective equipment.
