- Electrical Used as the electrolyte solvent for capacitors and for lithium batteries.
- Casting Binder
Raw Material for Synthesis Applications:
- 2-Pyrrolidone (2P) 2P is a raw material for pharmaceutical intermediates, nylon-4, NMP, as well as a floor polish agent.
- N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) NMP is used for aromatic and butadiene hydrocarbon extraction, polyamide/polyimide varnish solvent, as well as semiconductor and color filter photoresist solvent, etc.
- N-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP) NVP is a raw material for PVP. It's also used as a stripping agent and a petroleum additive.
- Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) PVP is used for cosmetics (hair spray and lotion thickening agent), medical products (tablet binder, plasma substitute, mouthwash), industrial applications (suspension stabilizer for colloidal suspension polymerization, dyeing agent, hardening oil viscosity modifier, adhesive thickening agent), and food (beer / wine clarification agent).
- Other applications such as methionine, etc.
