Dimethyl Sulfide (DMS), known by its CAS number 75-18-3, is a versatile organosulfur compound with significant industrial utility. Its unique chemical properties make it an indispensable component in several key manufacturing processes, particularly within the petrochemical sector. As a leading supplier of industrial chemicals, we provide reliable access to high-quality DMS for a wide range of applications.

DMS in Petrochemical Production
One of the primary industrial applications of Dimethyl Sulfide is its role as a sulfidation agent in the petrochemical industry, specifically in the production of olefins like ethylene. In steam-cracking furnaces, DMS is added to the feedstock. Its function is critical: it helps regulate the formation of carbon monoxide and manages the rate at which coke deposits build up on furnace coils. This control is essential for maintaining efficient operation, extending furnace run lengths, and ensuring profitable plant operations. The high purity and consistent quality of DMS are vital for these demanding processes, making it a preferred choice for many ethylene manufacturers.

Furthermore, DMS is utilized in catalyst preparation within refineries. Its ability to decompose and provide sulfur compounds is key to activating hydrodesulfurization catalysts, a crucial step in producing cleaner fuels.

DMS as a Chemical Solvent and Intermediate
Beyond its role in petrochemicals, Dimethyl Sulfide serves as an effective solvent for various mineral salts that are insoluble in water. Its chemical structure allows it to dissolve a range of organic and inorganic materials, making it useful in specific extraction and reaction processes. As an intermediate, DMS is a building block for synthesizing other chemicals, including dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and various specialty sulfur compounds used in agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals.
