Use

Dimethoxymethane (Methylal) is a valuable extraction solvent for pharmaceutical products and a stable, inexpensive solvent for Grignard reactions. Methylal is stable under alkaline and mild acidic conditions. Its dissolving ability is stronger than ether, acetone, and methanol and azeotrope can dissolve nitrocellulose with high nitrogen content. Dimethoxymethane is mainly used in the production of anion-exchange resins, and also as solvents and special fuels.

You can find Dimethoxymethane suppliers, manufacturers, and distributors from countries such as China, United States and the India here. Browse to the tetrahydrofuran product information displayed by the supplier, as well as the supplier's contact and capability information.
