Exceptional Solvent and Chemical Intermediate

Gamma Butyrolactone is highly regarded in the chemical industry for its exceptional solubility and stability. Owing to its miscibility with key solvents and its neutral pH, it is favored as both a solvent and an intermediate in chemical syntheses. Its high purity enhances performance in applications ranging from pharmaceuticals to cleaning agents.


Safety, Storage, and Handling Guidelines

As a substance classified under hazard class 6.1 (toxic), GBL must be carefully handled. It needs to be stored in tightly sealed containers, away from direct sunlight in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas. Strict adherence to storage and handling protocols ensures user safety and maintains product integrity for up to 24 months.


Diverse Industrial Applications

GBL serves multiple sectors including manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and cleaning. Its role as a solvent, cleaning agent, and chemical precursor supports a broad spectrum of industrial processes, making it indispensable to various production chains across India and globally.

FAQs of Gamma Butyrolactone:


Q: How should Gamma Butyrolactone (GBL) be stored to ensure safety and product integrity?

A: GBL should be stored in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas, away from heat and direct sunlight, in tightly sealed containers to maintain its quality and reduce the risk of exposure.

Q: What are the primary industrial uses of Gamma Butyrolactone?

A: GBL is primarily used as a solvent, cleaning agent, and chemical intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and a variety of specialty chemicals.

Q: When is it necessary to use personal protective equipment when handling GBL?

A: Personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and safety goggles must be worn at all times while handling GBL due to its toxic nature (harmful if swallowed, causes serious eye irritation).

Q: Where is GBL commonly applied within industry sectors?
