Raw Material for Methyl Chloroformate Production

According to the Methyl Chloroformate production plant project report, the major raw materials for Methyl Chloroformate production include Phosgene-Methanol.

Production Process of Methyl Chloroformate

The extensive Methyl Chloroformate production cost report consists of the following industrial production process:

• Production from Phosgene: This method of production involves the use of phosgene and methyl alcohol as the starting materials for the synthesis of methyl chloroformate as the product. The process is initiated by the chemical reaction of phosgene with methanol under controlled conditions of temperature and pressure, which results in the formation of methyl chloroformate as the final product.

Methyl Chloroformate (CH3OCOCl) is a corrosive chemical liquid with a strong pungent odor. It is a flammable liquid comprising two carbon, three hydrogen, one chlorine, and two oxygen atoms.
