2-(2-methoxypropoxy)-1-propoxypropane - Introduction
dipropylene glycol methyl ether ether (abbreviated as DMP) is an organic compound with the chemical formula (CH3)2C(OCH2CH2)2O. The following is an introduction to the nature, use, formulation and safety information of DMP:
Nature:
1. DMP is a colorless to light yellow liquid with low volatility;
2. It is a solvent soluble in water, but also soluble in a variety of organic solvents;
3. DMP has good stability and is not easy to be oxidized or decomposed.
Use:
1. As a solvent in chemical synthesis: DMP can be used as a solvent for organic synthesis reactions, especially for some water-sensitive reactions;
2. As a cosolvent in pigments and coatings: Because DMP has good solubility, it can be used as a cosolvent in pigments and coatings, which helps to improve the quality and stability of the coating;
3. As a surfactant: DMP can be used as a surfactant, with good foaming performance and wetting performance.
Method:
DMP can be prepared by the following steps:
1. Mixing methanol and propylene glycol according to a certain molar ratio;
2. Add acid catalyst, such as sulfuric acid;
3. The reaction is carried out at an appropriate temperature, and the reaction mixture usually needs to be heated until DMP is obtained.
Safety Information:
1. DMP is an organic solvent, so pay attention to good ventilation when using it;
2. Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. If there is contact, rinse immediately with water and seek medical advice;
3. It is strictly forbidden to swallow DMP. If you eat it by mistake, you should seek medical treatment immediately;
4. When storing and using DMP, pay attention to avoid contact with strong oxidants and fire sources to prevent fire or explosion.
