合成:由於有害物質的使用減少,甲醇氧化羰基化的採用增加
CO2直接合成是一種透過二氧化碳和甲醇催化反應生產碳酸二甲酯(DMC)的環保方法。該製程因其減少溫室氣體排放並且可以使用CO2作為原料而受到關注。當環境影響是重要因素或當碳權政策有利於二氧化碳利用時,對這種方法的偏好就會增加。碳酸伸乙酯交換過程使碳酸伸乙酯和甲醇反應生成DMC和乙二醇。當需要同時生產乙二醇或當使用碳酸亞乙酯作為起始材料有優勢時,通常優選此方法。由於其高選擇性和產率而經常被選擇。甲醇光氣化是透過甲醇與光氣反應生產DMC的傳統方法。儘管該工藝因其高效率和高產率而受到青睞,但由於光氣的毒性和嚴格的環境法規,近年來它已不再流行。甲醇的氧化羰基化是甲醇和一氧化碳在氧化劑(通常是氧氣)存在下反應生成DMC。儘管由於與光氣化方法相比使用的有害物質較少而成為首選,但由於需要高壓和高溫,該過程仍然很複雜。這種氧化羰基化方法使用硝酸甲酯作為中間體,並與CO反應生成DMC。當硝酸甲酯可用且與處理其他潛在危險中間體相關的安全問題超過了製程的複雜性時,必須選擇該方法。尿素酯交換涉及尿素和甲醇反應生成DMC和氨。此方法對環境友好,使用易得且無毒的原料。

Synthesis: Growing adoption of oxidative carbonylation of methanol due to less usage of hazardous materials
Direct synthesis from CO2 is an eco-friendly approach that involves the catalytic reaction of carbon dioxide with methanol to produce dimethyl carbonate (DMC). This process is gaining attention due to its potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and utilize CO2 as a raw material. Preference for this method increases when environmental impact is a critical factor or when carbon credit policies favor CO2 utilization. The ethylene carbonate transesterification process involves the reaction of ethylene carbonate with methanol to produce DMC and ethylene glycol. This process is typically preferred when a concurrent production of ethylene glycol is desirable or when there's an advantage in using ethylene carbonate as a starting material. It is often chosen for its high selectivity and yields. Methanol phosgenation is a traditional method where methanol reacts with phosgene to produce DMC. This process is preferred for its high efficiency and yield but is less favored in recent times due to the toxic nature of phosgene and stringent environmental regulations. Oxidative carbonylation of methanol is an approach where methanol and carbon monoxide react in the presence of an oxidizer, usually oxygen, to form DMC. Preferred for its use of less hazardous materials compared to the phosgenation method, this process is still complex due to the high pressures and temperatures required. This variant of the oxidative carbonylation process uses methyl nitrate as an intermediate, which reacts with CO to form DMC. The need-based preference for this method can be high in scenarios where there is an accessible supply of methyl nitrate or when the safety concerns of handling other more hazardous intermediates outweigh the complexity of the process. Urea transesterification involves the reaction of urea with methanol to produce DMC and ammonia. This method is environmentally friendly and uses readily available and non-toxic raw materials.
Application: Growing application of dimethyl carbonate as a fuel additive to improve the burn characteristics of gasoline and diesel
Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is used as a battery electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its high dielectric constant and good solvency for lithium salts. It provides a balance between high conductivity and stability, which is essential for efficient energy storage and battery longevity. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) benefit from DMC as an electrolyte for their low-cost and environmentally friendly profiles. DMC acts as a solvent in the DSCs, which improves ionic mobility, thereby increasing the photovoltaic efficiency. DMC is also used in supercapacitors for its electrochemical stability and high dielectric constant. Supercapacitors are preferred for rapid charge and discharge cycles and DMC as an electrolyte enhances these properties. As a fuel additive, DMC improves the burn characteristics of gasoline and diesel, reducing pollutants and enhancing performance. The need for DMC in this segment is linked to stringent environmental regulations and the push for cleaner burning fuels. Dimethyl Carbonate is a precursor in the manufacture of polycarbonates via melt transesterification processes. Polycarbonates are widely used in the production of electronic components, CDs, and eyewear lenses. DMC is gaining ground as a methylating agent and carbonylation reagent in organic synthesis due to its low toxicity and biodegradability. The pharmaceutical industry, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals all utilize DMC in synthesis processes. The applications of DMC extend to its role as a solvent in paints, coatings, and adhesives due to its quick evaporation rate and good solvent power.
Grade: Rising potential of industrial-grade DMC for less sensitive applications
Battery grade DMC is characterized by its exceptionally high purity and is primarily used as a solvent in lithium-ion batteries. The need for this grade of DMC has surged with the thriving electric vehicle (EV) market and the shift towards renewable energy storage solutions. Industrial-grade DMC is used in a wide range of applications, such as solvents or intermediates in organic synthesis, coatings, adhesives, and as a methylation agent. It often has a purity slightly lower than the battery grade, making it suitable for less sensitive applications. Pharmaceutical grade DMC is the purest form of DMC used as a reagent or solvent in drug manufacturing. Its purity levels exceed those of the battery grade, ensuring that it meets stringent regulatory standards for pharmaceutical applications.
End-Use Industry: Emerging usage of DMC in the paints & coatings industry due to its high solvency
In the agrochemical industry, DMC is often used as a solvent, intermediate, or a reagent in the synthesis of pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides. Its low toxicity makes it a preferable choice over other solvents to enhance the safety of agrochemical formulations. DMC is predominantly used within the battery industry as an electrolyte for lithium-ion batteries. This sector's growth is fueled by the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and portable electronics, where high-performance batteries are crucial. The volatility and flammability of DMC are counterbalanced by its ability to create efficient and stable electrolyte solutions. The paints & coatings industry uses DMC as a solvent due to its high solvency and low toxicity profile. It contributes to lowering the volatile organic compound (VOC) content in paints, thus aligning with environmental regulations. DMC is used to improve paint quality, drying time, and resistance to weathering. In the pharmaceutical industry, DMC usage spans from solvent applications in drug formulation to being a reagent in chemical syntheses. It serves a critical role in ensuring purity and effectiveness in the production of APIs. Its low toxicity is particularly advantageous for pharmaceutical applications. DMC plays a role in the plastics industry as a phosgene-free intermediate in the production of polycarbonates. This production process is more environmentally benign, and thus the adoption of DMC is significant in eco-conscious companies. It allows for safer work environments and products with lower carbon footprints.
