High-Purity Solvent for Diverse Industries

THF serves as an essential solvent for PVC, resins, and pharmaceutical synthesis due to its outstanding solvency and miscibility. Its high purity and neutral pH ensure reliable performance in critical processes, making it a preferred choice in both laboratory research and industrial manufacturing.


Safe Handling and Storage Guidelines

For safety, store THF in tightly sealed containers within cool, dry, well-ventilated areas away from ignition sources and moisture. Regular monitoring is advised to prevent peroxide formation. Adhering to proper safety protocols ensures long shelf life and maintains solvent integrity.

FAQs of THF Tetrahydrofuran:


Q: How should Tetrahydrofuran (THF) be stored to maintain its stability and safety?

A: THF should be stored in tightly closed steel drums in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from sources of ignition and moisture. This prevents peroxide formation and preserves the solvents stability, ensuring safe use throughout its 24-month shelf life.

Q: What are the main industrial uses of THF?

A: THF is predominantly employed as a polar aprotic solvent in the production of PVC, resins, and in pharmaceutical syntheses. Its high miscibility with water and organic solvents makes it invaluable for diverse laboratory and industrial applications.

Q: When is it necessary to monitor THF for peroxide formation?

A: Regular monitoring is necessary when THF is stored over extended periods, especially after being exposed to air. Prolonged exposure increases the risk of forming hazardous peroxides, so periodic testing and the use of peroxide inhibitors are recommended.

Q: Where is THF commonly handled and what protective measures should be in place?

A: THF is handled in chemical laboratories and manufacturing plants. Users must employ proper ventilation, wear protective gloves, goggles, and avoid inhalation or ingestion due to its harmful and flammable properties.

Q: What is the typical process for using THF as a solvent?

A: THF is added to reaction mixtures to dissolve polymers or organic compounds, facilitating chemical reactions or extractions. Its ability to solvate both polar and non-polar compounds enhances process efficiency in synthesis and formulation.

Q: What are the benefits of using industrial-grade THF supplied in steel drums?

A: Industrial-grade THF offers consistent purity (99.9%) and reliability, while steel drums provide secure containment, minimizing contamination and preserving quality during transportation and storage.
