Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Colorless liquid. | [Reactivity Profile]
DIMETHYL SUCCINATE(106-65-0) reacts with acids to liberate heat along with methanol and succinic acid. May react with strong oxidizing acids to liberate enough heat to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated with alkali metals and hydrides. | [Air & Water Reactions]

All
screening levels for DBE, including the new ITSL of 1 μg/m3 (annual) are based on a 90-day
inhalation study Keenan et a/.(1990), which identified a lowest-observed-adverse-effect-level
(LOAEL) of 20 mg/m3 for degeneration of nasal epithelium in female rats. Up to this time, the
individual dimethyl esters each had ITSLs of 0.1 μg/m3 (annual). |
Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Description]
Dimethyl succinate belong to the diester of methyl alcohol and succinic acid, which can be found in nuts. It is a biodegradable ester with low odor and low volatility and commonly serves as a flavoring agent that can be used in perfumery and personal are products, including skin-conditioning agents and emollient. It also has a variety of industrial usages such as functional fluids (open systems), intermediates, paint additives and coating additives, pigments, viscosity adjustors, etc. Besides, dimethyl succinate can be used in the production of pharmaceuticals as well as agrochemicals and for manufacturing additives, plastics and other organic compounds. In spite of its slightly water-soluble property, it can also act as a surfactant applied in water based systems.
