Physical   Properties: Tetrahydrofuran is a colorless and volatile liquid at room temperature, with an odor similar to ether; Soluble in most organic solvents such as water, ethanol, ether, acetone, benzene, etc., it is called a "universal solvent".
Applications: Tetrahydrofuran is a commonly used excellent solvent, especially suitable for dissolving PVC, polyvinylidene chloride, and butylamine. It is widely used as a solvent for surface coatings,   anti-corrosion coatings, printing inks, magnetic tapes, and film coatings; The main use of THF in the polyurethane industry is as a monomer raw material for polytetrahydrofuranediol (PTMEG), which is also one of the main uses of   THF.
