Methanol (CAS No. 67-56-1), also known as methyl alcohol or wood alcohol, is a basic chemical used across multiple industrial value chains. Its low molecular weight, high polarity, and miscibility with water and many organic substances make it suitable for chemical processing, solvent systems, fuel applications, and the production of downstream intermediates.
AOLANSU manufactures and supplies industrial methanol from China, with production processes focused on purity control, batch consistency, packaging integrity, and supply continuity. The company holds a hazardous chemical production certification and provides product documentation and logistics coordination for qualified industrial buyers.
With purity of ≥99.9%, this grade is intended for applications where low moisture and controlled impurities are important, including chemical synthesis, precision cleaning, and selected laboratory processes.
With a typical purity range of 99.0–99.8%, industrial grade offers a balance between chemical performance and procurement cost. It is suitable for general solvents, chemical feedstocks, fuel-related applications, and large-volume manufacturing.
Technical-grade material is designed for less demanding industrial applications where ultra-high purity is not required. Typical uses include general cleaning, deicing formulations, and other non-critical processes subject to applicable regulations.

The strong polarity and high miscibility of methanol allow it to function effectively in solvent systems containing water and various organic compounds. This makes it useful where rapid mixing and predictable solvent behavior are required.
Methanol can serve as a starting material for producing formaldehyde, acetic acid, methyl derivatives, and other downstream chemicals. Consistent purity helps manufacturers maintain stable feedstock conditions during continuous production.
The material can be incorporated into different industrial formulations according to process requirements. Buyers can select appropriate grades based on purity requirements, consumption volume, process sensitivity, and target application.
AOLANSU applies process and laboratory controls to monitor key indicators such as purity, moisture, appearance, and physical properties. Consistent specifications help reduce variation between production batches and simplify incoming quality inspection.
Methanol is an important feedstock for formaldehyde, acetic acid, methylamines, MTBE, and other chemical intermediates. It is commonly purchased by manufacturers operating continuous or batch chemical production lines.
As a polar solvent, it can be used in selected coatings, inks, cleaning formulations, and industrial processing systems where its solvency and volatility characteristics are appropriate.
Methanol is used in certain fuel formulations and energy-related processes. Its application should be determined according to the fuel system, applicable regulations, and required product specifications.
High-purity material can be used as a solvent or reagent in qualified laboratory and research processes. Low impurity levels are particularly important for analytical work where contamination may affect test results.
Available packaging includes 200L iron drums, ISO tanks, and bulk shipment solutions. Packaging specifications can be adjusted according to order volume, transportation requirements, and customer labeling needs.
Because methanol is a highly flammable and toxic chemical, storage should be carried out in approved facilities with appropriate ventilation, ignition-source control, fire protection, and chemical management procedures. Containers should remain tightly closed and handled only by trained personnel.
AOLANSU supports hazardous chemical shipment coordination and provides relevant product documentation for qualified buyers. Transportation arrangements should comply with the regulations applicable to the destination country, transport mode, packaging type, and hazardous material classification.
For industrial procurement, AOLANSU can provide product specifications, batch-related quality documentation, packaging information, and other applicable documents to support customer inspection and receiving procedures.
Different purity grades, packaging formats, labeling requirements, and shipment quantities can be discussed according to the buyer's application and procurement plan. This allows chemical distributors and industrial users to select a supply configuration suited to their existing operations.
For recurring industrial demand, production planning and shipment schedules can be coordinated in advance to improve supply continuity. AOLANSU combines manufacturing capacity with hazardous chemical compliance management to support qualified customers requiring regular deliveries.
The grade should be selected according to the required purity, moisture limits, impurity tolerance, production process, and final application. High-purity grade is more suitable for sensitive synthesis and laboratory processes, while industrial and technical grades can be considered for less demanding applications.
Yes. AOLANSU supports different packaging configurations, including iron drums, ISO tanks, and bulk shipment. Labeling and other packaging requirements can be discussed according to the customer's logistics and compliance requirements.
Yes. Methanol is a flammable and toxic chemical and must be stored, handled, packaged, and transported according to applicable hazardous chemical regulations. Buyers should review the relevant SDS and local regulatory requirements before use or shipment.
