1,4-Butanediol NA BMBcert
Butanediol (BDO) is a high-quality intermediate. BDO and its derivatives are widely used for producing plastics, solvents, electronic chemicals and elastic fibers.
General
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: e.g. 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. This mass balanced product comes with a 100% substitution of fossil with renewable raw materials in the value chain. Using a Biomass Balance product (BMB) contributes to preserve fossil resources and enables the shift to a circular economy. The product provides the same quality, performance and properties as the conventional equivalent (so-called drop-in solution) and helps to reduce the product carbon footprint. Additionally, this product comes with a highly recognized REDcert² certification.
