METHYL ABIETATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical PropertiesPale Yellow Thick Oil
OccurrenceWood rosin is found in the resinous residue of turpentine (Arctander, 1960)
UsesMethyl Abietate was used as an antiplasticizer for polycarbonates.
UsesAs a solvent for ester gums, rosin, many synthetic resins, ethyl cellulose, rubber, etc.; in the manufacture of varnish resins; as ingredient in adhesives.
PreparationPrepared by esterification of wood rosin with methanol.
Flammability and ExplosibilityNot classified
Safety ProfileLow 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.
