Tetrahydrofuran (THF) ACS is a clear colorless organic liquid. Tetrahydrofuran's chemical formula is C4H8O. It is miscible in water and has good solubility in a wide range of solvents. Due to organic peroxides formation on long term storage, THF is usually stabilized by adding butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). BHT removes the free radicals required for the peroxide formation. Tetrahydrofuran is also known as Butylene oxide, Oxolane and Tetramethylene oxide. It is a compound of four carbons and one oxygen connected in a ring formation to form a cyclic ether. ACS grade Tetrahydrofuran contains high purity and quality therefore it is used for different industrial applications.
