In addition, the use of the chemical in the manufacture of glutaric acid also helps to increase its utilization in the chemical production process. Overall, industrial Dimethyl Glutarate procurement is influenced by its application as a solvent in various industries, its application to dissolve resins and coatings, its utilization as an eco-friendly solvent, and its employment in the chemical industry.

Raw Material for Dimethyl Glutarate Production

According to the Dimethyl Glutarate manufacturing plant project report, the key raw material used in the production of Dimethyl Glutarate includes glutaric anhydride.

Manufacturing Process of Dimethyl Glutarate

The extensive Dimethyl Glutarate production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

1. Production from glutaric anhydride: The manufacturing process of Dimethyl Glutarate starts with the reaction of glutaric anhydride with anhydrous MeOH in the presence of an acid catalyst such as conc. H2SO4 to facilitate the esterification reaction, under reflux. Finally, CH2Cl2 is used to extract the aqueous phase, and the mixed organic phases are then dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to produce Dimethyl Glutarate.
