Introduction to the application of furfural
Furfural is an organic compound, a colorless to yellow liquid with a strong aromatic and bitter taste, and can be used to prepare chemicals such as spices, dyes, medicines and pesticides.
Furfural has many uses, some of the main ones are as follows:
1. Furfural can be used as a raw material for organic synthesis, and also for synthetic resins, varnishes, pesticides, medicines, rubber and coatings, etc.;
2. Furfural is mainly used as an industrial solvent for the preparation of Furfuryl Alcohol, furoic acid, tetrahydrofuran, γ-valerolactone, pyrrole, tetrahydropyrrole, etc.;
3. Furfural is the raw material for preparing many medicines and industrial products. After electrolytic reduction, furan can also be made into succinic dialdehyde, which is the raw material for the production of drug atropine. Some derivatives of furfural have strong bactericidal ability, and the antibacterial spectrum is quite broad. For example, furfural is condensed with semicarbazide hydrochloride to obtain nitrofurazone through 5-nitrofurfural, which is a kind of disinfectant and antiseptic.
4. Furfural is the raw material of furan acrylic acid, furfurylamine fumaric acid, adipic acid, furfuryl alcohol and other intermediates. It is widely used in the synthesis of fine chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, veterinary drugs, dyes, spices, rubber additives, and preservatives. .
5. Furfural is used in synthetic resins to produce furan resin, furfural resin and furfurone resin, etc. Furan resin is also called furfuryl alcohol resin. Furfural is hydrogenated under high pressure to generate furfuryl alcohol, and furfuryl alcohol is polymerized to obtain furfuryl alcohol resin. This resin has strong alkali resistance, high heat resistance and water resistance, and can be used as caulking resin cement, anti-corrosion lining, adhesive.

6. As a solvent, furfural can selectively extract unsaturated components from petroleum and vegetable oil. Extracting aromatic components in lubricating oil and diesel oil with furfural can improve the quality of these products.
We also can supply Dibenzoylmethane and Hydroxyethyl Cellulose.
