Introduction | DMA(dimethylamine), also known as dimethylamine, is an organic compound, which is a colorless flammable gas or liquid, high concentration or compression liquefaction with ammonia odor, low concentration of fish oil odor, soluble in water, soluble in ethanol and ether, toxic. |
preparation method | dimethylamine can be pressurized reaction of methanol and ammonia to produce methylamine, trimethylamine and dimethylamine, and then separated. |
Use | used in the production of drugs, dyes, pesticides, leather hair removal agent, rubber vulcanization accelerator, rocket propellant and other raw materials dimethylamine is an important intermediate of pesticide, which can be used for the preparation of fungicides, forme bis, formesarsine, forme zinc, forme nickel, forme arsenic, bactericide, insecticides: Anti-pirimicarb, insecticidal double, insecticidal single, acarbose, Borer bolus, herbicide green Malon, Isoproturon, cycloazinone, fluron, etc. mainly used as rubber vulcanization accelerator, leather hair removal agent, medicine (antibiotic), pesticide (formamido, chlormeform, herbicide such as tarhalon), textile industry solvent, dye, explosive, propellant and dimethylhydrazine, N,N-dimethylformamide and other organic intermediates of raw materials. Dimethylformamide production consumption of dimethylamine accounted for 44.7% of the total consumption, pesticide production consumption accounted for 38.9%, pharmaceutical and other production consumption accounted for 16.4%. used as basic organic chemical raw materials, solvents and additives used as analytical reagents, acid gas absorbents, solvents and organic synthesis intermediates determination of magnesium and zinc. Precipitation of zinc hydroxide and manganese hydroxide. Acid gas absorbent. Solvent. Chloropicrin and carbon dioxide in air were examined. Organic synthesis intermediates, such as dimethyl dithiocarbamate preparation. |
production method | methanol and ammonia are mixed in a certain proportion at a certain temperature and pressure, with activated alumina as catalyst, synthesis of A, two, three methylamine mixture, and then by heat exchange, condensation, deammoniation, extraction, dehydration, separation, dimethyl amine product. For details, see "monomethylamine". methanol amination method. The reaction temperature is 425 ℃, the reaction pressure is 2.45 MPa, the catalyst is α-Al2O3, and the crude monomethylamine, dimethylamine and trimethylamine are obtained by the gas phase catalytic reaction of methanol amination, after pressure distillation, the pure industrial products of single component, methyl amine, dimethyl amine and trimethyl amine were obtained.
