Product Description
Colorless Gas LPG DME Ether Fuel Grade For Alkylating Agent Refrigerant
Product Introduction
Dimethyl ether (DME) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C₂H₆O. Under standard conditions, it appears as a colorless, flammable gas with a distinct odor. This compound forms explosive mixtures with air and presents significant fire hazards when exposed to heat, sparks, flames, or oxidizers. Its density exceeds that of air, allowing it to spread considerable distances at lower levels, potentially creating fire hazards when encountering ignition sources.
Primary Applications
DME serves multiple industrial functions:
  • Methylating agent for dimethyl sulfate production
  • Key component in synthesizing N,N-dimethylaniline, methyl acetate, acetic anhydride, and ethylene
  • Versatile applications as alkylating agent, refrigerant, foaming agent, solvent, and extractant
  • Fuel additive and substitute for Freon aerosol propellants
  • Widely used in pharmaceutical, dye, and pesticide manufacturing
Vehicle Fuel Applications
As an environmentally friendly diesel alternative, DME offers significant advantages:
  • 7-9% higher thermal efficiency compared to gasoline engines
  • Reduces noise and achieves smokeless combustion
  • Produces fuel additives with cetane numbers ranging 60-100
  • Enables dual-fuel vehicle conversion with simple gas supply system installation
  • Lower infrastructure costs compared to LPG and CNG fuel systems
Civilian Fuel Advantages
With properties similar to LPG, DME serves as an excellent clean fuel for residential use:
  • 98% purity ensures complete combustion at room temperature
  • Compatible with existing LPG storage and distribution systems
  • Produces no residual liquid or dangerous combustion byproducts
  • Requires minimal stove modification costs
  • Maintains stable performance during transportation and storage
Aerosol Propellant Uses
DME has become the preferred alternative to ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons:
  • Environmentally friendly replacement for banned CFC propellants
  • Widely used in air fresheners, insecticides, and foam products
  • Forms the basis of fourth-generation aerosol propellants
Refrigerant and Foaming Agent Applications
DME's liquefaction properties make it valuable for specialized industrial uses:
  • Effective low-pollution refrigerant alternative to hydrofluorocarbons
  • Produces uniform pore structure in foam plastics and polymers
  • Enhances product flexibility, pressure resistance, and crack resistance
  • Used in polystyrene, polyurethane, and thermoplastic polyester foam production
Note: Proper handling procedures must be followed due to DME's flammable nature and potential peroxide formation when exposed to air or light.
