Description
1 4 BDO, also known as 1 4 Butanediol, is a butanediol whose methyl groups have one hydrogen replaced by a hydroxy group. BDO chemical is a colorless, water-miscible, viscous liquid at room temperature (m.p. 16°C) with a high boiling point (230°C), primarily used to synthesize other organic compounds, especially the solvent oxolane.
As stated by ScienceDirect, 1,4-butanediol (BDO) is a vital commodity chemical used to manufacture over 2.5 million tons of valuable polymers annually.
