25190-06-1 - Reference Information
| EPA chemical information | Information provided by: ofmpub.epa.gov (external link) |
| application | polytetrahydrofuran, as an important chemical raw material, is mainly used to prepare spandex in the field of chemical fiber and in the field of non-fiber for the preparation of elastomers, adhesives, coatings, sealants and other fields. polyurethane products prepared by it are wear-resistant, chemical-resistant, and have good flexibility and resilience. At present, the top three applications of polytetrahydrofuran abroad are polyurethane elastic fiber (49%), polyurethane elastomer (36%) and ester ether copolymer elastomer (15%). |
| Preparation | Using perchloric acid as a catalyst and anhydride as a capping agent, the polymerization reaction is carried out at a temperature lower than 25°C, and then sodium hydroxide solution is added to terminate the reaction, After distillation to remove unreacted tetrahydrofuran and water, the polymer is washed out of salt, and the polytetrahydrofuran ether glycol diester is obtained by distillation and dehydration, and then methanol is added for transesterification reaction, then add water to neutralize, evaporate excess methanol and methyl ester to obtain crude products, and finally dehydrate again to obtain pure polytetrahydrofuran. |
| use | used in the production of TPU, CPU, PU resin, PU slurry, polyurethane elastomer, etc. PTMEG is one of the important raw materials for the production of spandex and polyamino acid elastomer. it is used as a soft segment in urethane and can provide polyurethane products with good hydrolysis resistance, low temperature resistance and dynamic properties. It can also be used as the main raw material for elastomer products, synthetic leather resins, and elastic fibers (spandex). |
25190-06-1 – Introduction
Polytetrahydrofuran (PTHF) is a polymer. It is a colorless, transparent liquid with low viscosity and is commonly used in applications such as solvents, coatings, and adhesives. The following is a detailed introduction to its properties, applications, preparation methods, and safety information.
Properties:
- Polytetrahydrofuran is characterized by low viscosity and a colorless appearance.
- It has good solubility and can dissolve in water, alcohols, and other commonly used organic solvents.
- It is stable at room temperature and does not readily react with oxygen in the air.
Applications:
- Due to its good solubility and compatibility with various materials, polytetrahydrofuran is commonly used as an industrial solvent, particularly in coatings, laminates, and spray-painting applications.
- It is also commonly used in the preparation of polyurethane, polyester, and other polymer materials.
- Polytetrahydrofuran can be used as a modifier for textiles, coatings, and adhesives to improve their performance.
- In chemical synthesis, it can be used as a solvent for catalysts.
Preparation:
- Polytetrahydrofuran is produced through the polymerization of tetrahydrofuran (THF) monomers. One commonly used method involves carrying out the polymerization reaction at an appropriate temperature using a peroxide as an initiator.
- The reaction is usually conducted under an inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation of the THF monomer.
Safety Information:
- Polytetrahydrofuran is generally considered safe under normal conditions of use.
- However, appropriate protective measures should still be taken during handling, such as wearing chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing.
- Avoid prolonged contact with the skin, as it may cause irritation or allergic reactions.
- In case of accidental contact with the eyes or skin, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water and seek medical attention as soon as possible.
- During storage and handling, avoid contact with oxygen, strong oxidizing agents, open flames, and other incompatible materials in order to reduce the risk of fire or explosion.
