Methyl Benzoate Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Methyl Benzoate Powder is an aromatic carboxylic acid ester fragrance commonly used in China's daily chemical industry at present, with strong floral and fruity aroma, with ylang ylang and tuberose like fragrance rhythm and phenolic breath, naturally present in essential oils such as ylang ylang oil, tuberose oil, clove oil, longevity flower oil and daffodil oil.

Methyl Benzoate Powder is stable in air, but slowly oxidizes when oxidizing agents are present; reacts with alkali and can be saponified to produce benzoic acid solution; easily undergoes ester exchange to prepare other benzoic acid esters; also easily hydrolyzed.

Methyl Benzoate CAS 93-58-3 can not only be used to formulate rose type, old crane grass type and other fragrances, but also used as a solvent for cellulose ester, cellulose ether, resin, rubber, etc.. 

Methyl Benzoate CAS 93-58-3 is used for dyeing hydrophobic polyester fiber, which can shorten the dyeing time, reduce the dyeing temperature and improve the washing resistance of the dyed fabric.

Methyl Benzoate Powder is China's GB2760-1996 regulations allow the use of food flavors, can be modulated strawberry, raspberry, cherry, pineapple, Laum, liqueur, vanilla bean and nut flavors for food; can also be used in the formulation of daily fragrances, Methyl Benzoate Raw Materials is used to formulate ylang ylang and floral fragrance base, the amount of 12% or less, IFRA has no restrictions.

Traditionally, methyl benzoate is produced by esterification of benzoic acid with methanol in the presence of sulfuric acid. Since Methyl Benzoate Raw Materials is a by-product of the production of p-Methyl Benzoate Raw Materials, a polymer intermediate, it is possible to try to isolate and obtain products that meet the flavoring specifications from these crude products of methyl benzoate.

Application/Function of Methyl Benzoate Powder.

Methyl Benzoate CAS 93-58-3, also known as benzyl benzoate, is a chemical substance. It can be used as a spice, a food additive and a solvent for some spices, and as a plasticizer for plastics and paints. It can be used to treat scabies.

Methyl Benzoate CAS 93-58-3 is present in many kinds of plant flavors and can be used as a spice, a food additive and a solvent for some fragrances, and also as a plasticizer for plastics and paints. Besides, Methyl Benzoate Powder has the effect of lice, fleas and scabies and does not irritate the skin, without odor and greasy feeling. Methyl Benzoate Powder can be used to treat scabies. It is often prepared by reacting sodium benzoate with chloromethyl benzene in the presence of a catalyst.

Methyl Benzoate Powder can be chemically regarded as the product of alcoholysis of benzoic acid or benzoic anhydride or benzoyl chloride with methanol. It is a colorless and transparent liquid. Methyl Benzoate Powder is miscible with methanol, ethanol and ether; insoluble in water. It has a strong aroma of wintergreen oil and Unanja oil, and is used in the preparation of perfume flavor and artificial essential oil; also used in large quantities in food.

1.  used as cellulose ether, cellulose esters, synthetic resins and rubber solvents and dyeing agents for polyester fibers; in fragrances are mostly used in the blending of artificial ylang-ylang fragrances and soap flavors, and used to formulate rose-type fragrances. methyl benzoate Raw Materials can also be used as a solvent in microscopic analysis.
2. Methyl Benzoate Raw Materials is used to formulate fragrance, also used as solvent for cellulose ester, cellulose ether, resin, rubber, etc.

Chemical Properties of Methyl Benzoate Powder.

Methyl Benzoate Raw Materials can cause combustion and explosion when exposed to open flame and high heat. Reacts violently in contact with oxidizing agents.

Production method of Methyl Benzoate Powder.

• 1, refining method: often contains free benzoic acid and methanol and other impurities. Refining with sodium bicarbonate or potassium carbonate solution washing, anhydrous potassium carbonate or sodium sulfate drying and then distillation.
• 2, benzoic acid, methanol into a container, while stirring slowly add sulfuric acid, heating 12h, for the reaction. After the reaction, methanol is recovered, then washed, dried, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain the finished product.
• 3、Methyl Benzoate Raw Materials exists in natural clove oil, ylang ylang oil and moon oil, which can be extracted by distillation from essential oil. It is produced industrially by esterifying benzoic acid with methanol in the presence of sulfuric acid. Benzoic acid is mixed with methanol, concentrated sulfuric acid is slowly added, heated to about 70°C and refluxed for 4h, and excess methanol is evaporated. Cool, separate out the acid solution, wash, dry and distill under reduced pressure, collect the 104-105℃ (5.2kPa) fraction as the finished product. Yield above 90%

IFRA has no restrictions. Methyl benzoate is recognized as GRAS by FEMA, FEMA No. 2683, and approved for consumption by FDA. The European Council has included methyl benzoate in the list of artificial food flavors that can be used in food without harm to human health, with a maximum dosage of 61mg/kg and an ADI of 5mg/kg.

Methyl Benzoate Powder is stable in air but oxidizes slowly when oxidizing agents are present; reacts with alkali and can be saponified to produce benzoic acid solution; readily undergoes ester exchange to prepare other benzoic acid esters; also readily hydrolyzed. According to the information provided by RIFM, the acute toxicity data of methyl benzoate: oral LD 503.4g/kg (rat). The traditional method is to prepare methyl benzoate from benzoic acid by esterification with methanol in the presence of sulfuric acid.

Since Methyl Benzoate Powder is a by-product of the production of dimethyl terephthalate, an intermediate of polymer materials, it is possible to try to isolate the crude product from these Methyl Benzoate Powder to obtain a product that meets the flavouring specifications. Methyl Benzoate can not only be used to formulate rose type, old crane grass type and other fragrances, but also used as a solvent for cellulose esters, cellulose ethers, resins, rubber, etc.; it can be used for hydrophobic polyester fiber dyeing to shorten the dyeing time, reduce the dyeing temperature and improve the washing resistance of the dyed fabric.
