Introduction

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) was once considered an irreplaceable high-octane gasoline component and was called the “third generation petrochemical” in the 1980s. Because it can increase the oxygen content of unleaded gasoline, make the gasoline burn more fully, reduce the emission of harmful substances such as carbon monoxide and benzene, and can replace tetraethyl lead as an anti-riot agent, it meets the requirements for producing high-octane unleaded gasoline. , causing its demand to grow rapidly, it is an ideal high-octane gasoline additive for Chemicalbook. MTBE is an ideal blending component for producing unleaded, high-octane, and oxygenated gasoline. It can not only effectively increase the octane number of gasoline, but also improve vehicle performance, reduce CO content in exhaust gas, and reduce gasoline production costs. In addition, methyl tert-butyl ether is also an important chemical raw material, which can be re-cracked into isobutylene and used as a raw material for rubber and other chemical products. But at present, MTBE is clearly decapacity cutting.

Physical and chemical properties:

Methyl tert-butyl ether, abbreviated as MTBE (methyltert-butylether), has a melting point of -109°C and a boiling point of 55.2°C. It is a colorless, transparent, high-octane liquid with an ether-like odor. It is produced Chemicalbook is an ideal blending component for lead-free, high-octane, oxygenated gasoline, and has been widely used as a gasoline additive throughout the world. It can not only effectively increase the octane number of gasoline, but also improve vehicle performance, reduce CO content in exhaust gas, and reduce gasoline production costs.

Usage

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is mainly used as a gasoline additive and has excellent anti-knock properties. It has good miscibility with gasoline, absorbs less water, and does not pollute the environment. MTBE can improve the cold starting characteristics and acceleration performance of gasoline without adverse effects on vapor lock. Although methyl tert-butyl ether has a low calorific value, driving tests have proven that using gasoline containing 10 Chemicalbook% MTBE can reduce fuel consumption by 7% and significantly reduce the amount of lead and CO in the exhaust gas, especially the emissions of carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. reduce. As a raw material for organic synthesis, high-purity isobutylene can be produced. It can also be used to produce 2-methacrolein, methacrylic acid and isoprene, etc. In addition, it can also be used as an analytical solvent and extraction agent.

The production method uses mixed butene and methanol as raw materials, and performs an exothermic reaction in the presence of an acidic catalyst.
