n-Butyl Alcohol – 1-Butanol | CAS 71-36-3
Product Overview
n-Butyl Alcohol, also known as 1-Butanol, is a medium-chain primary alcohol used extensively as a solvent and chemical intermediate. It offers a moderate evaporation rate, good solvency for resins and polymers, and miscibility with a wide range of organic compounds. Commonly utilized in coatings, pharmaceuticals, and industrial cleaning applications, n-Butyl Alcohol also serves as a raw material in the manufacture of esters, plasticizers, and other specialty chemicals.
Key Industries
- Paints & Coatings – Used as a solvent and viscosity reducer in solvent-based systems
- Pharmaceuticals – Acts as a processing solvent and intermediate in synthesis
- Chemical Manufacturing – Precursor to esters and additives used in plastics and lubricants
- Adhesives & Sealants – Provides solvent action and compatibility with polymer systems
- Industrial Cleaning – Effective for degreasing and dissolving oils and residues
- Laboratory Use – Utilized in extraction, purification, and reaction media
Packaging Options
n-Butyl Alcohol is available in multiple packaging formats, including glass bottles, metal cans, and bulk containers. Custom volumes and container types are available to meet the specific requirements of industrial, laboratory, and commercial users.
