Product Description:
Methanol is widely used as a solvent in the production of inks, resins, adhesives, and dyes due to its ability to dissolve various substances effectively. It serves as a key raw material in the manufacturing of formaldehyde, which is essential for producing plastics, plywood, and paints. In the energy sector, methanol is utilized as a fuel additive and an alternative fuel for vehicles, offering cleaner combustion compared to traditional fuels. It is also employed in the synthesis of biodiesel, where it acts as a reagent in the transesterification process. Additionally, methanol is used in antifreeze formulations and as a denaturant for ethanol, making it unsuitable for consumption. In laboratories, it is commonly used as a solvent for analytical procedures and as a component in chromatography. Its applications extend to the pharmaceutical industry, where it is used in the production of various drugs and as a solvent for active pharmaceutical ingredients.
