Methyl chloride, also known as methyl chloride, is a colorless gas that is easy to liquefy and stored in steel cylinders under pressure. It belongs to organic halide. Slightly soluble in water, soluble in chloroform, ether, ethanol, acetone.
1. Used in the production of methyl chlorosilane, tetramethyl lead, methyl cellulose, etc., a small amount used in the production of quaternary ammonium compounds, pesticides, used as a solvent in the production of isobutyl rubber.
2. Important raw material for organic synthesis. Mainly used in the production of silicone compounds - methyl chlorosilane, and methyl cellulose. It is also widely used as solvent, extractant, propellant, cooling agent, local anesthetic, methylation reagent, and used in the production of pesticides, pharmaceuticals, fragrances and so on. About 80 per cent of the chloromethane produced worldwide is used to produce methyl chlorosilane and tetramethyl lead, but the consumption of tetramethyl lead is declining because the anti-knock compounds in gasoline are gradually being replaced by lead-free substances.
3. Mainly used as raw materials for silicone, also used as solvents, refrigerants, fragrances and so on.
