Product Description
PTMEG 2000 Poly(tetrahydrofuran) Polyol (CAS 25190-06-1)
Product Introduction
Poly(tetrahydrofuran) (PTMEG) 2000 is a high-purity, linear polyether glycol with a molecular weight of ~2000 g/mol. As a key intermediate in polyurethane chemistry, PTMEG 2000 offers exceptional flexibility, hydrolytic stability, and low-temperature resistance. Its CAS number, 25190-06-1, ensures precise identification for industrial and regulatory purposes. Ideal for synthesizing premium elastomers, adhesives, and fibers, PTMEG 2000 delivers superior performance in demanding applications.

Product Functions
- Flexibility Enhancer: Imparts excellent elasticity and resilience to polyurethanes
- Hydrolytic Stabilizer: Resists degradation from moisture, ensuring long-term durability
- Low-Temperature Performer: Maintains flexibility down to -60°C
- Process Aid: Compatible with isocyanates for smooth polymerization
- Soft Segment Builder: Forms soft segments in TPU, spandex, and adhesives
Application Areas
- Spandex Fibers: Primary raw material for elastic textiles (e.g., sportswear, lingerie)
- Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU): Footwear, automotive seals, and industrial hoses
- Elastomers: Cast wheels, conveyor belts, and impact-resistant parts
- Adhesives & Coatings: High-performance sealants and waterproof coatings
- Specialty Products: Medical tubing, synthetic leather, and eco-friendly lubricants
Manufacturing Process
PTMEG 2000 is synthesized via cationic ring-opening polymerization of tetrahydrofuran (THF):
- Initiation: THF monomers activated by acid catalysts (e.g., fluorosulfonic acid)
- Polymerization: Controlled chain growth to achieve MW ~2000 g/mol
- Termination: Neutralization and removal of catalysts
- Purification: Vacuum distillation to remove residual THF and water
- Stabilization: Addition of antioxidants (e.g., BHT) for shelf-life extension
Quality Control: Rigorous HPLC/GPC analysis ensures molecular weight consistency.
