Description

Butanol CAS NO 35296-72-1 is a versatile four-carbon alcohol widely utilized as a key solvent and chemical intermediate in industrial manufacturing. Its high volatility and compatibility with strong acids and organic solvents make it an effective medium for reactions, extractions, and formulations. This product is essential for producers in the coatings, plastics, pharmaceutical, and specialty chemical sectors seeking a reliable and high-purity feedstock.

Application

• Solvent for Coatings and Inks: Acts as an effective solvent for resins, lacquers, and printing inks, contributing to improved flow and drying properties.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Serves as a crucial building block in the production of butyl acrylates, glycol ethers, and other esters.
• Plasticizer Production: Used in the manufacture of phthalate and other plasticizers for PVC and other polymers.
• Extraction Agent: Employed in the purification and extraction of natural products and pharmaceuticals due to its selective solubility.
• Fuel Additive: Can be used as a component or precursor for biofuel blends and oxygenated gasoline additives.
• Cleaning and Degreasing Formulations: Found in industrial cleaning solutions for its ability to dissolve oils and greases.

Quality Control

Our Butanol is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) for every shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment aligns with major industrial standards, and we can support requirements for specific grades upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed when not in use. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C.
