Application :

• Methyl tert butyl ether ACS is primarily used as a fuel additive in gasoline to raise the octane number by oxygenating the gasoline to reduce engine knocking.
• It may be used to synthesize fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) and glycerol?tert-butyl ether via transesterification with canola oil under supercritical conditions.
• It is also used as a solvent and has a distinct advantage over most other ether solvents as it reduces the tendency of forming organic peroxides.?

Benefits :

• High quality and purity product which met the toughest standard of the American Chemical Society (ACS)
• Improves octane ratings?
• Reduces pollutant emission
• Relatively inexpensive solvent
