Use
More than 95 % of tert-Butyl methyl ether(MTBE) produced are used in the gasoline pool. In addition to many other favorable characteristics, the current importance of MTBE is based primarily on its exceptionally good octane-enhancing properties when used as a gasoline blendstock. tert-Butyl methyl ether is also used in the petrochemical industry. By reversal of its formation reaction, MTBE can be cracked to isobutene and methanol on acidic catalysts at higher temperature than MTBE synthesis.
