Physical and chemical properties
The appearance of MMT is orange yellow liquid, soluble in organic solvents such as gasoline, difficult to dissolve in water, very low vapor pressure, easy to decompose in light, half-life in air is less than 2min, boiling point 232-233 ° C-lit, melting point/freezing point: -1 °C - lit, density/relative density 1.38 g/cm3 at 25 °C.

Product features
The antiknock mechanism of MMT is similar to that of tetraethyl lead. MMT decomposing at high temperature produces free manganese, which interacts with oxygen in the air to produce manganese oxide (MnO). Manganese oxide interacts with peroxides in unburned working gas to produce inactive organic oxides and high-priced manganese oxide. The elimination of peroxide in the engine cylinder working gas greatly reduces the knock phenomenon caused by spontaneous combustion of the engine.

Product Use
MMT is a multi-functional additive, in addition to acting as an explosion-proof agent, it can also improve the combustion rate of solid propellant, improve the combustion performance of boiler, extend the service life of lubricating oil, and provide raw materials for the production of Mn film by chemical precipitation method (CVD).
