110–63–4,14 BDO,BDO Australia,1.4 Butanediol 110–63–4 Odorless colorless liquid or solid 110–63–4 is hygroscopic. Water soluble. 110–63–4 Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide may be produced in fire. 110–63–4 Formula: C4H10O2 110–63–4 Purity≥99% Butanediol (BDO) is a high-quality intermediate. BDO and its derivatives are widely used for producing plastics, solvents, electronic chemicals and elastic fibers. General Butanediol and its derivatives is used in a broad spectrum of applications in the chemical industry; amongst others in the manufacturing of technical plastics, polyurethanes, solvents, electronic chemicals and elastic fibres. The hydroxyl function of each end group of the Butanediol reacts with different mono- and bifunctional reagents: For example with dicarboxylic acids to polyesters, with diisocyanates to polyurethanes, or with phosgene to polycarbonates. Additionally BDO is also a building block for the synthesis of polyesterpolyols and polyetherpolyols.
