Structure:

Physicochemical properties: γ-butyrolactone is a non-toxic and transparent oily liquid. It is completely miscible with water, soluble in ethanol, ether, benzene and acetone, and can dissolve many organic and inorganic compounds. It is a solvent with high boiling point, strong solubility, good electrical properties and stability. Safe, environmentally friendly and easy to use.

Specifications: Electronic grade (content: 99.9% moisture: 0.05%)

Industrial grade (content: 99.7% moisture: 0.08%)

Uses: γ-butyrolactone is an important organic synthetic raw material and an excellent solvent. It can dissolve most insoluble polymer/resin. Mainly used in the synthesis of pyrrolidone series products, cyclopropylamine, acetyl-γ-butyrolactone and so on. In addition, γ-butyrolactone is also used in agricultural chemicals, polymers and dyes, solvents for printing, and extractants for petrochemicals. Using γ-butyrolactone as a raw material, it can also produce perfumes, pharmaceutical intermediates, rust removers, and the like. Γ-butyrolactone is a typical protic solvent with a pH of about 4.5, which can be used in closed-type dry cells and as an electrolyte in lithium batteries.

Packing, storage and transportation: 200kg / barrel (iron drum or polyethylene barrel). Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse, away from fire and heat. When handling, lightly load and unload, keep the package intact and prevent leakage.
