[Chemical Knowledge]:What are the upstream raw materials for butanol? What are the downstream products?


of the upstream and downstream related products
of butanol Butanol is an important organic chemical raw material, which is widely used in medicine, pesticides, plastics, coatings, solvents and other fields. In the field of chemical production raw materials, the upstream and downstream related products of butanol are very rich, and the upstream and downstream related products of butanol will be introduced in detail below.

1. butanol Upstream Associated Products

1. Propylene: Propylene is one of the main raw materials of butanol, and butanol can be produced by propylene carbonyl synthesis.
2. Sulfuric acid: As a catalyst and a dehydrating agent, sulfuric acid plays an important role in the production of butanol.

2. butanol downstream related products

1. Butyric acid: Butanol can generate butyric acid through oxidation reaction. Butyric acid is an important organic acid, which can be used to manufacture plastics, fibers, rubber, etc.
2. Butyraldehyde: Butyraldehyde can be generated by dehydration of butanol under acidic conditions. Butyraldehyde is an important organic chemical raw material, which can be used in the manufacture of rubber accelerators, preservatives, spices, etc.
3. butyl ether: Butanol reacts with sulfuric acid to produce butyl ether, which is an excellent solvent and can be used to make coatings, inks, dyes, etc.
4. Ethylene glycol: Butanol can be reacted with ethylene glycol to generate diethylene glycol butyl ether, diethylene glycol butyl ether is an excellent solvent and plasticizer, can be used in the manufacture of coatings, inks, adhesives and so on.
5. Ethyl butyrate: Butanol and acetic acid esterification reaction to produce ethyl butyrate, ethyl butyrate is a fragrant organic compounds, can be used as spices, solvents, etc.

To sum up, the upstream and downstream related products of butanol are very extensive, involving medicine, pesticides, plastics, coatings, solvents and other fields. With the continuous development of science and technology, the application field of butanol will continue to expand.
