Products Description
Methyl T Butyl Ether (MTBE), is an organic compound, chemical formula C5H12O, colorless transparent liquid, insoluble in water, soluble in ethanol, ether.
Methyl T Butyl Ether performance:
- MTBE has a camphor-like odor, colorless and transparent, and can be completely miscible with alcohol, ether, aliphatic hydrocarbon, aromatic hydrocarbon, halogenated solvent at room temperature.
- Like other methyl tertiary alkyl ethers, MTBE has another very important property, namely, it is highly resistant to auto-oxidation and is not easy to form peroxides.
- Methyl tert-butyl ether is currently a replacement for tetraethyl lead.
