Methane, bis(neopentyloxy)-, also known as bis(2,2-dimethylpropoxy)methane, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C9H20O2. It is a colorless, volatile liquid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Methane, bis(neopentyloxy)- is primarily used as a solvent, particularly in the production of polyurethane foams and as a blowing agent in the plastics industry. It is also employed as a stabilizer in the production of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and as a component in the synthesis of various chemicals. Due to its low toxicity and high stability, it has gained popularity as a safer alternative to other solvents in certain applications.
The CAS Registry Mumber 4457-17-4 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 4,4,5 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 7 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 4457-17: (6*4)+(5*4)+(4*5)+(3*7)+(2*1)+(1*7)=94 94 % 10 = 4 So 4457-17-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
