Expanding use of 1, 4-Butanediol (BDO) in drug formulations will positively impact the market growth over the forecast period. Chief derivative for 1, 4- butanediol is Tetrahydrofuran (THF). Additionally, THF undergoes catalyze polymerization and forms a white waxy liquid known as polytetramethylene ether glycol (PTMEG). It is further used in polyesters, urethane elastomers and polyamides production. Moreover, PTMEG is essentially being used in Lycra/spandex/elastene fiber production. 更多
