Solvent in Chemical Manufacturing
Widely used as a solvent in the production of various chemicals, including coatings, paints, resins, and adhesives. Its solvent properties make it ideal for dissolving a wide range of substances in industrial applications.
Pharmaceutical Production
Serves as a solvent in the production of pharmaceuticals and in chemical reactions involving the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
Plasticiser Production
It is used in the manufacturing of plasticisers, which are added to plastics to increase flexibility and durability. Butan-1-ol is also a component in the production of synthetic rubber.
Intermediate in Organic Synthesis
In organic chemistry, it is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals, such as butyl acetate, butyl acrylate, and various esters, which are key ingredients in paints, coatings, and fragrances.
Fuel Additive
Butan-1-ol is being explored as an alternative fuel or fuel additive due to its ability to increase the energy content and reduce the emissions of internal combustion engines.
