N-N-DIMETHYLACETAMIDE AR
Dimethylacetamide is commonly used as a solvent for fibers (e.g., polyacrylonitrile, spandex) or in the adhesive industry.
It is also employed in the production of pharmaceuticals and plasticizers as a reaction medium. A solution of lithium chloride in DMAc (LiCl/DMAc) can dissolve cellulose
DMAC is primarily used as an industrial solvent and intermediate in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, agrochemicals, polymers, and resins. It is also used as a spinning solvent in the production of fibers of various polymers, including acrylic, polyurethane, polyurea copolymer, and meta-aramid.
N-Dimethylacetamide (DMAc) is a clear oily liquid miscible in all proportion with water; melting point -20 C, boiling point 165 C at 1013 hPa. It is dissolved in most of organic solvents including alcohols, ethers, ketones, chlorinated and aromatic solvents except aliphatic hydrocarbons.
Dimethyl Acetamide is a colorless liquid with a faint ammonia-like odor. It is used as a solvent for plastics, resins and gums. * Dimethyl Acetamide is on the Hazardous Substance List because it is regulated by OSHA and cited by ACGIH, NIOSH and NFPA.
