3.Application scope and Usage
Methanol has a wide range of applications and is a basic organic chemical raw material and high-quality fuel. It is mainly used in fine chemicals, plastics and other fields, and is used to produce various organic products such as formaldehyde, acetic acid, chloroform, methanolamine, dimethyl sulfate, etc. It is also one of the important raw materials for pesticides and medicines. After further processing, methanol can be used as a new type of clean fuel and can also be mixed with gasoline for combustion.
4.Package and Storage
Small opening steel drums; threaded mouth glass bottles, iron-covered screw-top glass bottles, plastic bottles or metal barrels (cans); wooden crates outside. The warehouse is well-ventilated, kept at low temperature and dry; stored separately from oxidants and acids.
