Product description

Chemical name: furfuryl alcohol

Molecular formula C5H6O2

Molecular weight 98.10

Physical and chemical properties: Appearance and properties: colorless to light yellow transparent liquid, slightly spicy taste, will turn brown or dark red when exposed to sunlight and air. Melting point -31℃,

Boiling point: 171°C, relative density (water=1) 1.1285 (20/4°C), relative density (air=1) 3.37, refractive index 1.4868, flash point 65°C

Solubility: soluble in water, miscible in ethanol, ether, benzene, chloroform; its vapor and air form explosive mixture. In the case of acid, it is easy to polymerize and form a resin that is not easy to melt.

Uses: As one of the raw materials for organic synthesis, furfuryl alcohol can be used to produce acetyl lactose and furan resins with various properties. As a selective solvent, dispersant and lubricant are used in furfuryl alcohol resin, silt-formaldehyde resin and phenolic resin, etc. Hydrogenation can produce tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. Also a good solvent for varnishes, pigments and rocket fuel. Also used in synthetic fibers, rubber, pesticides and foundry industries. At the same time, it can manufacture plasticizers, and its cold resistance is better than that of butanol and octanol esters. Production of calcium fructonate. Synthesize dyes, pharmaceutical intermediates, manufacture chemical intermediates, and make pyridine.

Packaging and storage: iron drum packaging. Store in a cool, dry and ventilated place. No smoking. Do not store and transport with strong acid, strong oxidizing chemicals and food.
