APPLICATION
- Methanol is a polar liquid used as an antifreeze, solvent, fuel and as a denaturant for ethanol
- It is also used for producing biodiesel via transesterification reaction.
- It is used in high-performance liquid and gas chromatographic analysis
- It is also important that a LC-MS grade of solvent have very stringent metal specifications (ppb levels) to prevent the
formation of adduct.
