Our product, High Quality M-cresol with the CAS number 108 - 39 - 4, is a chemical compound with remarkable properties. M-cresol, also known as 3-methylphenol, has a molecular formula of C₇H₈O and a molecular weight of approximately 108.14 g/mol. It is a colorless to slightly yellowish liquid with a characteristic phenolic odor. The boiling point of M-cresol is around 202 - 203 °C, and its melting point is about 11 - 13 °C. It is sparingly soluble in water but miscible with most organic solvents.
Our M-cresol is of high purity, ensuring consistent performance in various applications. We guarantee a minimum purity level, which meets the strictest industry standards. The low price does not compromise the quality, making it an economical choice for both small-scale and large-scale users.
M-cresol has a wide range of applications across different industries. In the pharmaceutical industry, it serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of various drugs. It can be used to produce antiseptics, disinfectants, and antioxidants. The phenolic structure of M-cresol gives it antibacterial and antifungal properties, making it suitable for formulating topical medications.
In the fragrance industry, M-cresol is used to create unique scents. It can be a component in perfumes, colognes, and other scented products, adding a distinct and long-lasting aroma. Additionally, it is used in the production of dyes and pigments. M-cresol can react with other chemicals to form colored compounds, which are then used in textile dyeing, printing inks, and painting.
In the plastics and resin industry, M-cresol is used as a modifier in the production of phenolic resins. These resins have excellent heat resistance, electrical insulation properties, and mechanical strength, and are widely used in the manufacturing of electrical components, automotive parts, and construction materials.
When using M-cresol, it is essential to follow proper safety procedures. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, safety glasses, and a lab coat. Handle the product in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhalation of vapors. If accidental contact with skin occurs, immediately wash the affected area with plenty of water and seek medical advice if necessary.
For industrial applications, M-cresol can be added directly to reaction mixtures under controlled conditions. The dosage and reaction conditions should be determined based on the specific application and process requirements. For example, in the synthesis of phenolic resins, M-cresol is typically mixed with formaldehyde in the presence of a catalyst at a certain temperature and pressure.
In the fragrance industry, M-cresol should be diluted with appropriate solvents before use. The concentration should be carefully adjusted to achieve the desired scent profile without causing any adverse effects.
Case Study 1: Pharmaceutical Production
A pharmaceutical company was developing a new antiseptic cream. They used our High Quality M-cresol as an active ingredient. By incorporating M-cresol into the cream formulation, they were able to achieve a high level of antibacterial activity. The cream was tested on a group of volunteers with minor skin infections, and the results showed a significant reduction in the number of bacteria on the skin within a few days of application. The low price of our M-cresol also helped the company reduce production costs without sacrificing product quality.
Case Study 2: Fragrance Creation
A fragrance house wanted to create a new men's cologne with a unique and long-lasting scent. They used M-cresol as one of the key components in the fragrance composition. By carefully blending M-cresol with other essential oils and fragrance compounds, they were able to develop a cologne that received positive feedback from consumers. The cologne had a distinct, masculine aroma that lingered on the skin for hours, increasing its market appeal.
Case Study 3: Phenolic Resin Manufacturing
A plastics manufacturer was looking for a cost-effective way to improve the heat resistance of their phenolic resins. They replaced a portion of the traditional raw materials with our M-cresol. After testing, they found that the new phenolic resins had significantly improved heat resistance, making them suitable for use in high
