Methyl Benzoate Production Cost Reports

Methyl Benzoate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Methyl Benzoate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Methyl Benzoate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Methyl Benzoate is a benzoate ester that is mainly comprised of eight carbon, eight hydrogen, and two oxygen atoms. It is a liquid compound with a molecular weight of 136.15 g/mol. Its chemical formula can be represented by C6H5COOCH3. The liquid ester that is obtained by the condensation or esterification of benzoic acid with methanol. It is a transparent chemical with a characteristic fragrant fruit-like odor. Its melting and boiling point is measured around -12.35 °C and 199 °C, respectively. Its flash point is measured around 83 °C.

Its density can be measured around 1.0837 g/cm3 at 25 °C. It is a chemical irritant that appears as a solid compound, or a crystalline chemical dissolved in liquid. It has a high density when compared to water. It is a toxic liquid that can cause irritation when exposed to the eyes and skin. It is insoluble in water and glycerol. However, the liquid can be dissolved in other chemical solvents, including carbon tetrachloride, ethanol, methanol, and more. Similarly, it is miscible in compounds such as diethyl ether. It reacts at higher temperatures and decomposes on heating. The chemical can react at higher temperatures while emitting toxic fumes of carbon oxides.

Methyl Benzoate is a liquid that is utilized in the preparation of certain chemicals and fragrance products. It usually serves as an odor agent or a flavoring agent in the production of different perfumes and fragrance varieties. It is also used in the preparation of synthetic dyestuffs and pigments that are further used in other commercial operations. It acts as a solvent that can be used in the production of cellulose ester, ether, certain rubber varieties, and resins. Moreover, it is considered as a disinfectant additive, which can be used in the production of chemical disinfectants.
