About Tetrahydrofuran (THF), ACS Grade, ≥99.9% Purity

Tetrahyfrofuran (THF) is a versatile solvent with numerous industrial applications. There are several sizes to fit any application from 1/2 pints up to three gallons. Comes with pour nozzle to transfer product and make refilling easy. All sizes ship in metal rigid container and within full DOT compliance. THF is a clear, colorless, low viscosity liquid with an ether-like odor. THF exhibits high volatility and an extremely low freezing point. At 20°C, THF is completely miscible with water (H2O). Due to its tendency to form peroxides during storage, it is inhibited with BHT. APPLICATIONS: Polycarbonanate (Lexane)- THF can be used to chemically bond polycarbonate parts together with minimal set time. The applicator needle is ideal for applying small amounts of this water thin material. 3-D Printing- THF can be used to smooth PLA prints and blend layer lines. Laboratory Use-THF is used in very large quantities in research institutions worldwide as a solvent for numerous chromatographic techniques such as Gel Phase Chromotogoraphy. It’s broad solvency capabilities are consistently reliable. Adhesives- THF solvents are can be used to join rigid plastic pipe and in compounded cements for leather, plastic sheet film extrusions and for molded plastic parts assemblies. PVC Cements- THF-PVC formulations meet NSF standards. THF solvent cements can be formulated with additional solvents and inorganic fillers to control set time. THF can also function as a PVC-type cleaner before joint formation Reaction Solvent- THF is very stable under very strong basic conditions and is therefore the choice for numerous spcialty syntheses which invlove complex catalysts and Grignard reagents.
