Uses

 Furfuryl alcohol (CAS NO.98-00-0) has been used in rocketry as a fuel which ignites hypergolically (immediately and energetically in contact) with white fuming nitric acid or red fuming nitric acid oxidizer.The use of hypergolics avoids the need for an igniter. Furfuryl alcohol (CAS NO.98-00-0) is probably a BK channel agonist.and may be used as a food additive.

Production

 Furfuryl alcohol (CAS NO.98-00-0) is manufactured industrially by the catalytic reduction of FURFURAL which is obtained from corncobs and sugar cane bagasse. It finds use as a solvent, but is primarily used as an ingredient in the manufacture of various chemical products such as foundry resins, adhesives, and wetting agents.

Specification

 Furfuryl alcohol (CAS NO.98-00-0) is also called as 2-Furancarbinol ; 2-Furanmethanol ; 2-Furfuryl alcohol ; 2-Furfurylalkohol [Czech] ; 2-Furylcarbinol ; 5-Hydroxymethylfuran ; 2-Hydroxymethylfuran ; Furfuranol ; Furfurylcarb ; Furylcarbinol (VAN) ; Methanol, (2-furyl)- ; alpha-Furylcarbinol . Furfuryl alcohol is an organic compound containing a furan substitited with a hydroxymethyl group. It is a clear amber liquid with a faint burning odor and a bitter taste. It is soluble in common organic solvents. Upon treatment with acids, heat and/or catalysts,   furfuryl alcohol can be made to polymerize into a resin, poly .
