Tetrahydrofuran

This high-performance organic solvent features rapid dissolution and excellent surface-to-internal penetration and diffusion. It is used as a solvent in Grignard reactions, polymerization, reduction-condensation reactions, and esterification. It effectively dissolves polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), and their copolymers. Common applications include surface coatings, protective coatings, adhesives, and film manufacturing, as well as inks, paint removers, extraction agents, and synthetic leather surface treatments. It serves as a key raw material for producing polytetramethylene ether glycol and is a primary solvent in the pharmaceutical industry.
