Useful Area
USES
- Lubricant oil additives: MIBC is used to make zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP), an additive that helps prevent corrosion and wear.
- Frother in mining: MIBC is used as a frother in mineral flotation to separate valuable minerals from waste.
- Coating solvent: MIBC is used as a solvent in nitrocellulose and hot spray lacquers.
- Pharmaceuticals: MIBC is used as a solvent for pharmaceuticals.
- Talc processing: MIBC is used in talc processing.
- Surfactants: MIBC is used as a solvent for surfactants.
- Ethyl cellulose, urea formaldehyde, and alkyd resins: MIBC is used as a solvent for these substances.
- Plasticizers: MIBC is used as a raw material to make methyl amyl seba cate and methyl amyl phthalate, which are used as plasticizers.
Notes
METHYL ISOBUTYL CARBINOL is an alcohol. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones.
