MTBE

MTBE (CAS No.: 1634-04-4) is a high-performance gasoline additive with the molecular formula C5H12O. Key Parameters: RON 118, MON 100, oxygen content 18.2%, purity 97%-99.5%. A colorless, transparent liquid with a faint ether-like aroma, it boasts excellent miscibility with gasoline in any ratio, ensuring no stratification—making it an ideal oxygenated component for unleaded, high-octane gasoline. MTBE effectively boosts octane ratings and enhances anti-knock performance, safeguarding engine components against damage caused by knocking. Its high oxygen content further facilitates complete fuel combustion, reducing carbon monoxide emissions while optimizing overall vehicle performance. Additionally, it functions as a versatile solvent for paraffin, oils, resins, and rubber, and serves as a key raw material in organic synthesis for producing polymer-grade isobutylene.
