Tetrahydrofuran

Product Description
Used as a solvent for natural and synthetic resins (especially vinyl resins), but also for the production of butadiene, adipdinitrile, adiponic acid, hexanediamine, etc. Tetrahydrofuran is an important organic chemical and fine chemical raw material, widely used in resin solvents (tape coating, PVC surface coating, cleaning PVC reactor, removal of PVC film, cellophane coating, plastic printing ink, thermoplastic polyurethane coating); Reaction solvents (form reagents, alkyl alkali and aryl alkali metal compounds, aluminium and boron hydrides, steroidal compounds and macromolecular organic polymers); Chemical intermediates (polymerization to produce PTMEG, natural gas flavoring agent); Chromatographic solvent (gel permeation chromatography).

Application

1.Tetrahydrofuran is used as a solvent and raw material for organic synthesis
2.Tetrahydrofuran is used as a chromatographic analysis reagent, organic solvent, and nylon intermediate
3.Tetrahydrofuran, also known as oxoalkanes, oxoalkanes, and tetramethylene oxide, is an intermediate in the synthesis of pesticide phenylbutyltin. 4.In addition, it can also be directly used to manufacture synthetic fibers, synthetic resins, and synthetic rubbers. Polymer materials, precision tapes, and solvents in the electroplating industry.
5.It is also used in the production of adipic nitrile, adipic acid, adipic diamine, succinic acid, butanediol γ- Butyrolactone and can be used in the pharmaceutical industry.
6.It is used in the production of Kebiqing, progesterone, rifampicin, and as a medicinal solvent.
7.THF is an important organic synthesis raw material and a solvent with excellent performance.
8.It is particularly suitable for dissolving polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, and butyl aniline.
9.It is widely used as a surface coating, anti-corrosion coating, printing ink, adhesive tape, and film coating for Chemicalbook.
10.The solvent is used as a reaction solvent, and when used in aluminum electroplating solutions, the thickness of the aluminum layer can be arbitrarily controlled and bright.
