N-Butyl Vinyl Ether (Butyl Vinyl Ether) 98%

Gandi Chemical Solutions supplies N-Butyl Vinyl Ether (Butyl Vinyl Ether) 98% (CAS 111-34-2) to manufacturers, water treatment plants and industrial processors. Enquiries for N-Butyl Vinyl Ether 98% are quoted against this listing. Priced by quotation, with a current safety data sheet on every consignment.

N-Butyl vinyl ether polymerizes into polyvinyl butyl ether resins used in pressure-sensitive adhesives, chewing-gum base, and specialty coatings, and also serves as a comonomer to modify film flexibility in copolymer systems. It’s flammable and reactive with acids/peroxides, so it’s stabilized and stored cool, away from oxidizers.

Where n-butyl vinyl ether 98% is used

• Comonomer in pressure-sensitive adhesive and coating resins
• Reactive diluent in cationic UV-cure systems
• Intermediate for acetal and specialty solvent manufacture
• Modifier for flexibility in vinyl ether copolymers

Key features

• CAS 111-34-2, C6H12O.
• Also ordered as Butyl Vinyl Ether, Vinyl butyl ether, Butoxyethene.
• Packed to your requirement, supplied inhibited.

Specification and grade

N-butyl vinyl ether at 98%, CAS 111-34-2, formula C₆H₁₂O. The longer alkyl chain against ethyl vinyl ether raises the boiling point substantially and lowers volatility, which makes it easier to handle and gives more flexible copolymers. Supplied inhibited.

Handling and storage

Flammable, peroxide-forming and acid-sensitive in the same way as the other vinyl ethers, but far less volatile, so vapour control is less demanding. Store cool, dark and inhibited, away from acids and oxidisers, with bonded and earthed transfer. Test for peroxides before any distillation or concentration step.

Packaging and supply

Packed to your requirement, supplied inhibited. If the material feeds a polymerisation, tell us your inhibitor tolerance — the type and level can matter to the reaction and we can quote against a specified stabiliser.
