Our butanol is produced through a rigorous, controlled process to ensure the highest purity and quality. With a boiling point of 117.7°C and a melting point of -89.8°C, our product exhibits excellent performance in a variety of industrial applications.
Usage & Applications
Butanol, also known as n-butanol or normal butanol, is a primary alcohol with the chemical formula C4H9OH. It is a versatile solvent with a variety of applications across numerous sectors due to its unique physical and chemical properties. Let's delve into some of its applications in different sectors:
-
Chemical Industry: Butanol is used as a crucial raw material and solvent in the manufacture of various chemicals. It is also used as an intermediate in the production of butyl acrylate, butyl acetate, dibutyl phthalate, dibutyl sebacate, and other butyl esters.
-
Pharmaceuticals: It is used as a solvent during the production of pharmaceuticals and as an extraction solvent. Additionally, it acts as a swelling agent in the production of capsules and tablets.
-
Cosmetics and Personal Care: In this sector, butanol is used in the production of creams, lotions, and other cosmetics due to its solvent properties. It is also used in fragrances for its ability to effectively dissolve essential oils and other aromatic compounds.
