The Uses of TERT-AMYL METHYL ETHER
Fuel additive for gasoline.
The Uses of TERT-AMYL METHYL ETHER
TAME has been used as a reference standard for the determination of the analyte in Catalonian groundwater and soil samples by purge-and-trap gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (P&T-GC/MS) and in aqueous solutions by solid-phase microextraction (SPME) combined with GC-MS. It may be used as a reference standard for the identification of the analyte in gasoline-contaminated groundwater by GC combined with various detectors/quantification methods such as photoionization detector (PID), flame ionization detector (FID), or MS.
General Description
tert-Amyl methyl ether is an fuel ether oxygenate and has been quantitated in water by membrane extraction ion mobility spectrometry. tert-Amyl methyl ether is also referred to as 2-methoxy-2-methyl butane. Kinetics of ion exchange resin (Amberlyst 18) catalyzed tert-amyl methyl ether reactions have been investigated.
Flammability and Explosibility
Highly flammable
Safety Profile
Moderately toxic by ingestion. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating vapors.
