1,4-Butanediol (BDO) – Industrial Grade High Purity Chemical Supplier

1,4-Butanediol (BDO) is a high-performance industrial diol widely used as a key intermediate in polyurethanes, PBT plastics, γ‑butyrolactone (GBL) production, elastic fibers, coatings, adhesives, and fine chemical synthesis.. As a reliable BDO supplier, we provide high purity 1,4-butanediol (≥99.9%) for global industries including the USA, Canada, Europe, Germany, France, Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia.

1,4-Butanediol (CAS 110-63-4) is a colorless, high-boiling liquid with low toxicity, widely used in chemical synthesis and polymer production.

It acts as a chain extender and intermediate in multiple industrial processes due to its dual hydroxyl functional groups.

Primary Uses:

• Intermediate for polyurethanes and elastomers

• Precursor for tetrahydrofuran (THF) and γ‑butyrolactone (GBL)

• Engineering plastics (PBT, polyester polyols)

• Solvents in coatings, inks, adhesives

• Chemical synthesis and fine chemicals

Product Specification:

Applicatioin:

1. Polyurethane Industry

BDO is widely used as a chain extender in polyurethane elastomers and coatings, improving flexibility and durability.

2. THF (Tetrahydrofuran) Production

A major portion of global BDO is converted into THF, which is used to produce spandex fibers and solvents.

3. Engineering Plastics (PBT)

BDO is a key raw material for polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), widely used in automotive and electronics industries.

4. Solvents & Fine Chemicals

Used in the production of:

• γ-Butyrolactone (GBL)
• NMP solvents
• Adhesives and coatings
