Methanol 99% Lab Grade

Methanol (methyl alcohol) was first made by heating wood chips in an airless environment. Some of the carbohydrates in the wood are broken down to produce methanol, which is then condensed. As a result of this procedure, methanol is now known as wood alcohol. It appears as a colorless and volatile liquid with an alcohol-like odor at room temperature. Lab Grade Methanol is highly recommended to use in educational institutes and research labs for regular research purposes. The Lab Grade Methanol is 99.9% pure with some impurities, making it unsuitable for use in food, drugs, and medicines.

Properties:

Methanol is the simplest alcohol: one methyl group linked to a hydroxyl group. At room temperature, methanol is a clear, colorless liquid with a distinct odor similar to ethanol, but is highly toxic when ingested by humans. It has a boiling point of 64.7 °C, molar mass of 32.04 g mol−1, and a melting point of −97.6 °C. Methanol has a density of 0.792 g/cm³.

Uses:

Methanol is used to remove and extract terpenes, tannins, alkaloids, glycosides, lignans, terpinoids from plants, Botanical. It is used to extract bio-active, phenolic and polar compounds from medicinal plants. Methanol is easily evaporated. Methanol is a high purity solvent. Methanol is used to manufacture botanical solutions.  Methanol is used in research and testing laboratories for phytochemical study, phytochemical analysis and chemical synthesis. Methanol is used to prepare methanol/water/acetic acid mixtures.

Methanol is a popular chemical precursor to other commodity chemicals and methylamines, converted into chemicals such as formaldehyde or acetic acid. It is used a gasoline additive in biodiesel, as well as in water methanol injections in high performance engines. Methanol often the key ingredient in denatured ethanol solutions, as its toxicity makes it dangerously inedible by humans. Methanol is also a component in antifreeze solutions given its low freezing point, and is a chemical additive in the destructive distillation of wood.

Synonyms for Methanol: Methyl Alcohol, Methylol, Methyl Hydrate, MeOH, Wood Alcohol
