Description
1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone is useful for the chemical functionalization of graphene sheets by solvothermal reduction of graphene oxide. It is also useful for pharmaceutical and different industrial applications due to its broad solvency and low volatility. It is used as stripping agent, oven cleaners and paint strippers. It is involved in the extraction of lube oil process and in the purification of synthetic gas.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
