CAS 616-38-6 Dimethyl carbonate is a colorless, transparent, volatile liquid with a slight, characteristic odor. Dimethyl carbonate is used as a solvent in the chemical industry, as an additive in fuels, varnishes and plastics, and as a reagent in organic synthesis.
Properties of DMC - dimethyl carbonate (C3H6O3):
- Reactivity: Dimethyl carbonate can react violently with strong oxidizing agents, strong acids and strong bases.
- Melting point: The melting point of dimethyl carbonate is around -30°C.
- Solubility: DMC is soluble in water in small quantities, but miscible with many organic solvents.
- Health risks: Dimethyl carbonate can cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation on contact. It may also cause organ damage in the event of prolonged or repeated exposure.
- Protection and prevention: It is recommended to handle dimethyl carbonate in a well-ventilated area, to wear personal protective equipment such as gloves, safety goggles and a respirator, and to wash immediately in the event of contact with the substance.
Dimethyl carbonate (CAS 616-38-6), once a speciality chemical, is now a high-growth commodity, driven by the global energy transition. Its primary use as an electrolyte solvent in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles and energy storage accounts for over 70% of the increase in demand.
Beyond batteries, dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is hailed as a green chemistry alternative, replacing toxic solvents such as methyl sulfate and chlorinated compounds in the production of pharmaceuticals, coatings, and polymers. Its low toxicity, biodegradability, and VOC-exempt status align with the increasingly stringent environmental regulations in place worldwide.
