N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) is a high-boiling, colorless, hygroscopic liquid with a slight amine-like odor. It is a polar aprotic solvent widely used in chemical synthesis, polymer production, and electronics due to its strong solvency power and miscibility with water and most organic solvents. DMF is a critical industrial chemical known for its excellent ability to dissolve a wide range of substances.
Applications
Pharmaceuticals: Reaction medium for API synthesis.
Acrylic Fiber Production: Solvent for wet spinning of polyacrylonitrile.
Polyurethane Coatings: Carrier solvent for adhesives and synthetic leathers.
Electronics: Photoresist stripper and cleaning agent.
Agrochemicals: Intermediate in pesticide formulations.
