Diisopropyl Ether is a volatile liquid that is commonly used as a solvent in various industrial applications. Due to its ability to dissolve in oil-based solutions, it is widely used in the production of plastics, fuel additives, paints, resins, dyes, and waxes. Additionally, it is used as an extraction solvent for manufacturing specific active ingredients, such as certain pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. Furthermore, it acts as an extraction agent in metallurgy to obtain gold from a nitric acid solution. It also functions as a gasoline-blending component, boosting octane levels in fuels.

The market for Diisopropyl Ether is majorly driven by its applications as an extraction agent in metallurgy and as a gasoline additive, which promotes its demand in the metal and fuel industries. Moreover, its usage in the production of plastics, paints, dyes, and waxes further strengthens its demand in the paints & coatings, printing, textile, chemical, and petrochemical industries.

Additionally, it is also utilized as an extraction solvent in the pharmaceutical industries for manufacturing specific active ingredients, which enhances its market growth. Furthermore, the availability and cost of production of diisopropyl ether raw materials, which include propylene and isopropanol, the market prices of diisopropyl ether, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, environmental regulations, safety standards, etc., are some of the elements that influence industrial diisopropyl ether procurement.

Raw Material for Diisopropyl Ether Production

According to the Diisopropyl Ether manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Diisopropyl Ether include Propylene-Isopropanol.

Manufacturing Process of Diisopropyl Ether

The extensive Diisopropyl Ether production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Propylene: This method of production begins by hydrolyzing propylene in the presence of a catalyst to form isopropanol. Isopropanol further reacts with propylene to form diisopropyl ether as the final product.

Diisopropyl Ether, also known as DIPE, diisopropyl oxide, 2-isopropoxy propane, or 2-2’oxybispropane, is a clear liquid with a sweet smell. Its chemical formula is C6H14O, and it is slightly soluble in water but mixes well with most organic solvents. Diisopropyl Ether has a specific gravity of 0.78 and a flash point of -28 degrees Celsius, making it highly flammable. Thus, it should be stored in a well-ventilated, dry, and cool space, away from any ignition sources. For transportation, it is classified as packing group II and hazard class 3, and it should be labeled as highly flammable and harmful.
