Tetrahydrofuran CAS Number: 109-99-9 is a colorless, water-miscible organic solvent with a low viscosity and a mild odor. Commonly referred to as THF, it is used extensively in the production of polymers, as a reaction medium in chemical synthesis, and in solvent extraction. Due to its excellent solvency properties, tetrahydrofuran is widely used in adhesives, coatings, and as a precursor for various chemical reactions. However, THF is highly flammable and requires proper storage and handling precautions.
