Apply:
Dimethyl ether has excellent combustion characteristics, high cetane number, and less pollution, no damage to the atmospheric ozone layer, and is easily degraded in the troposphere. It can be widely used as a fuel for automobiles.
Dimethyl ether can be used as a propellant, foaming agent, solvent, extractant, etc. for aerosols. High concentrations of DME can be used as an anesthetic.
It is also used in refrigerants as an alternative to freon.
