DAXSOL® Dimethyl carbonate

DAXSOL® Dimethyl carbonate by UBE is a clear, colorless, environmentally friendly green solvent synthesized from carbon monoxide. It is VOC-free, non-mutagenic, non-HAPs with mild & non-offensive odor and low MIR values. It exhibits low toxicity, rapid biodegradability and low bioaccumulation. It displays fast-evaporating rate, miscibility with most of organic solvents, partial solubility in water, and similar melting & boiling points to water.

• It can directly replace polar non-sustainable solvents, such as ketones, esters, glycols, toluene, xylene, methyl ethyl ketone and n-butyl acetate.
• It is used as a raw material for several methylation, carboxylation and carbomethoxylation processes, including pharmaceutical synthesis.
• DAXSOL® Dimethyl carbonate is designed to prepare adhesives.
• It is also used as an electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries (LIB) in notebook PCs and cell phones, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs).
• It is recommended by CHEM21.
