As a strongly polar non protonated solvent, DMAC is widely used in fields such as synthetic materials, petroleum processing, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, chemical fibers, and organic pigments.

DMAC is also an excellent catalyst that can accelerate reactions such as cyclization, halogenation, cyanation, alkylation, and dehydrogenation, and is commonly used as a catalyst in the petrochemical industry; Used as a solvent for synthesizing antibiotics and insecticides in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical industry, as a solvent for manufacturing polyamide resin and gum in plastic industry, and as a solvent for acrylonitrile spinning in chemical fiber industry; Used as a cleaning agent in the leather manufacturing industry, and in the coating industry for preparing paint removers, various crystalline solvent adducts, and complexes.
Therefore, all personnel engaged in the above operations may come into contact with DMAC.

Due to its high thermal stability, resistance to hydrolysis, low corrosiveness, and low toxicity, DMAC has been used as a substitute for DMF, with increasing demand and widespread applications.
