Product Description
CH3OCH3 Dimethyl Ether Liquid DME Chemical Intermediate In Bulk
Product Introduction
Dimethyl Ether (molecular formula: C2H6O, indicative formula: CH3OCH3, DME), also known as methyl ether and methoxymethane, is the simplest aliphatic ether. This derivative of methanol dehydration condensation appears as a colorless, non-toxic gas or compressed liquid with a slight ether aroma at room temperature. It serves as an important organic chemical product and chemical intermediate.

Melting Point -141.5°C
Boiling Point -24.8°C
Flash Point -41.1°C
Ignition Point 350°C
Explosion Limits Lower explosion limit in air: 3.4%, Upper explosion limit: 18%
Octane Number High, greater than 55
Key Characteristics
  • Efficient and Clean: High energy density with low pollution emissions, producing no residue or black smoke during combustion
  • Excellent Solubility: Miscible with most organic solvents, facilitating diverse chemical reactions
  • Chemical Stability: Resistant to reaction with acids and bases, with combustion and oxidation occurring only at high temperatures or with catalysts
Methoxymethane demonstrates exceptional combustion characteristics with a high cetane number, minimal pollution, and no atmospheric ozone layer damage. Its easy degradation in the troposphere makes it suitable for wide automotive fuel applications.
Advantages & Selling Points
  • Clean Energy Solution: Zero soot emissions for environmentally sensitive applications
  • Multi-Industry Versatility: Compatible with industrial, automotive, and domestic uses
  • Economic Alternative: Cost-effective substitute for LPG and diesel
  • Storage Safety: Stable under normal conditions with minimal degradation risk
  • Supply Reliability: Produced from abundant methanol or natural gas resources
Applications
  • Fuel Applications:
    • LPG replacement for domestic and industrial cooking
    • Alternative diesel fuel for vehicles and power generation
  • Aerosol Propellant: Used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and household sprays
  • Chemical Feedstock: For synthesizing dimethyl sulfate, acetic acid, and other intermediates
  • Refrigeration: Effective cooling agent in refrigeration systems
  • Industrial Processes: Fuel for oxy-DME welding and cutting applications
Production Technology
Our Methoxymethane production utilizes advanced methanol gas-phase catalytic dehydration technology to achieve fuel-grade purity exceeding 99.0%. Further refinement through a lightness removal tower with high-efficiency corrugated rolled perforated plate filler produces refined (99.9%) and high-purity (99.99%) grades.
Chemical Theory
DME's chemical stability and low molecular weight enable high reactivity in energy and chemical processes. The combustion reaction is represented as:
CH₃OCH₃ + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ + 3H₂O + Energy
Production Process
  1. Methanol dehydration under controlled conditions using solid acid catalysts
  2. Final product purification to achieve >99.99% purity levels
  3. Pressurized tank storage for distribution
