N,N-Dimethylformamide CAS 68-12-2 DMF 99.99%
Scope of Application
● Universal Industrial Solvent: An extremely powerful polar aprotic solvent widely used in the production of acrylic fibers, polyurethanes, engineering plastics, and synthetic leather. It is a primary solvent for polyurethane (PU) resins and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) spinning.
● Chemical Synthesis & Reagent: A vital solvent, reaction medium, and catalyst in pharmaceutical manufacturing, pesticide synthesis, and organic reactions (e.g., Vilsmeier-Haack reaction). It is commonly used in peptide coupling and as a solvent for recrystallization.
● Electronics & Agrochemicals: Serves as a key solvent in the production of printed circuit boards (PCBs), liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and semiconductor photoresists. It is also a carrier solvent for herbicides and insecticides.
● Analytical & Laboratory Use: Employed as a mobile phase component in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and as a solvent for spectroscopy and physical property testing.
