[News & Trends]:Understand the difference between crude methanol and methanol

Crude methanol and methanol are two common substances in the chemical industry, which have different characteristics and uses in production and application. 

Their chemical structures are different. Crude methanol is a type of crude methanol that contains a lot of impurities, while methanol is a high-purity organic compound. 

The main component of crude methanol is methanol, which also contains small amounts of impurities such as water, acids, and ketones. Methanol, on the other hand, has high purity and is commonly used in industrial and scientific research fields. Next, they also differ in their application areas. 

Crude methanol is mainly used for the preparation of esters, resins, solvents, and other chemicals, while methanol has a wide range of applications in the fields of chemical engineering, medicine, pesticides, dyes, and more. In terms of environmental protection and safety, the treatment and storage of crude methanol and methanol are also different. 

Due to the presence of a large amount of impurities in crude methanol, its storage and use require special attention to fire and explosion prevention. 

Methanol has high safety, but it also needs to prevent contact with skin and inhalation of toxic gases. Overall, there are differences in chemical composition, application fields, and safety between crude methanol and methanol. Proper use and storage are crucial for production enterprises and workers.
