THF Tetrahydrofuran 109-99-9 Lyondell Solvents Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) ADHESIVE Tetrahydrofuran (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 H2O. THF is a versatile solvent with numerous industrial applications. Due to its tendency to form peroxides on storage, THF is inhibited with BHT. THF is produced by the cyclodehydration of 1,4-BDO. THF solvents can be used to join rigid plastic pipe and in compounded cements for leather, plastic sheet film extrusions and for molded plastic parts assemblies. The combined advantages of rapid solvent activity, minimum gelation and lower relative viscosities for resin solutions, makes THF an attractive solvent choice. Colorless, low viscosity solvent. Used to join rigid plastic pipe and in compounded cements for leather, plastic sheet film extrusions and for molded plastic parts assemblies. Inhibited with BHT because tends to form peroxides on storage. Offers high volatility and very low freezing point. Gives rapid solvent activity, minimum gelation and low relative viscosities for resin solutions.
