About Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Anhydrous Grade
Tetrahydrofuran (THF), commonly known as Oxolane, is a compound of four carbons and one oxygen connected in a ring formation to form a cyclic ether. It is a colorless, organic solvent of low viscosity. Because it is of mid-range polarity and miscible with water, it has diverse use as a solvent. It is abundantly utilized as a polymer precursor in various polymer production sectors.
Anhydrous Grade chemicals are slightly purer than the Distilled Grade chemicals. These chemicals are specially designed for specific research and industrial applications.
Common Uses and Applications
- Synthetic precursor and solvent for synthetic reactions
- Varnishes
- Biomass pretreatment
- Polyvinyl chloride adhesives
- Degreaser
- Liquid chromatography mobile phase
Industries
- Research Laboratories
- Polymer Industry
- Biofuels Industry
