Tetrahydrofuran (THF)

Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is a colorless, transparent organic compound with an ether-like odor and the chemical formula (CH2)4O. Tetrahydrofuran is used primarily as a precursor for polymers, including for surface coatings, adhesives and printing inks. Tetrahydrofuran is miscible with water and has a low viscosity, making THF a versatile solvent for use in a variety of industries.

1.4-Butanediol

1.4-Butanediol (chemical formula: HOCH2CH2CH2CH2OH) is one of the isomers of butanediol, a terminal dihydroxy substituent of butane, which is a colorless, viscous liquid at room temperature. Industrially, BDO is produced by allowing acetylene to react with two molecules of formaldehyde to form BDO, which is then hydrogenated. BDO can also be obtained by gas-phase hydrogenation of anhydrides.
