| | METHYL ABIETATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Pale Yellow Thick Oil | | Occurrence | Wood rosin is found in the resinous residue of turpentine (Arctander, 1960) | | Uses | Methyl Abietate was used as an antiplasticizer for polycarbonates. | | Uses | As a solvent for ester gums, rosin, many synthetic resins, ethyl cellulose, rubber, etc.; in the manufacture of varnish resins; as ingredient in adhesives. | | Preparation | Prepared by esterification of wood rosin with methanol. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Notclassified | | Safety Profile | Low toxicity by
ingestion and skin contact. A skin irritant.
Probably slightly toxic. Combustible liquid
when exposed to heat or flame; can react
with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use
CO2, dry chemical. When heated to
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and
irritating fumes. |
