Warm ASM methoxide?
« on: August 07, 2019, 10:05:42 AM »
Has anyone else that uses ASM noticed any heat produced when being mixed witrh methanol.

I used ASM only for a very small S2 on a present batch and noticed the heat. I thought that as no water was produced in the reaction then no heat was produced.

As I usually use mixed catalysts and add the KOH first this is the 1st time I have used ASM only.
