[Chemical Knowledge]:What are the upstream raw materials of GBL? What do the downstream products contain?

In the field of chemical production raw materials, there are many upstream and downstream related products of GBL(γ-butyrolactone). The following are some of the main upstream and downstream related products:

1. Upstream products:

(1) Succinic acid: Succinic acid is one of the important raw materials of GBL, and GBL can be produced through esterification, lactonization and other reactions.

(2) Maleic anhydride: Maleic anhydride is also one of the main raw materials of GBL, which can be obtained by hydrogenation, hydrolysis and other reactions.

(3) Hydrogen: In the production process of GBL, hydrogen needs to be used as a reducing agent.

2. Downstream products:

(1)N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP):GBL can be used as one of the raw materials to react with methylamine to produce N-methylpyrrolidone, which is an important organic solvent and chemical raw material.

(2) electrolyte solution: GBL can be used as a solvent for the preparation of electrolyte solutions for electrochemical devices such as lithium ion batteries.

(3)γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA):GBL can generate γ-aminobutyric acid through ring-opening polymerization, which is an important neurotransmitter and biologically active substance.

above is only a part of the upstream and downstream related products of GBL. In fact, as an important organic chemical raw material, GBL has a wide range of applications in the fields of chemical industry, medicine, pesticide, electronics, etc., and its upstream and downstream related products are also very rich.
