OEL Fastrac Catalog

Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) is also known as 2-ethoxy-2-methylpropane, 2-methyl-2- ethoxypropane, tert-butyl ethyl ether, and ethyl tertiary-butyl ether and belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dialkyl ethers. It is used in the study of the thermodynamic behavior of mixtures with ethanol and methanol. Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) does not occur naturally; it is a man-made ether oxygenate used primarily as a gasoline additive. It was used until 2006 in the United States (US) and is still used in Japan and the European Union. Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) is used as a fuel additive for gasoline to increase octane rating and has been used to meet air pollution reduction goals in the US under the Clean Air Act. Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) may be used as a substitute to replace the volume and oxygenate properties of methyl tertiary butyl ether.
