Ava Biochem FDME-PUR

Ava Biochem FDME-PUR is produced from bio-based 5-HMF via oxidation, and its dimethyl ester, FDME (CAS-No. 4282-32-0), play a particularly important role as monomers for various organic high-performance polyesters, polyamides and polyurethanes. These bio-based compounds can replace terephthalic acid in a wide range of applications.

Shelf Life and Storage Conditions

FDME-PUR has a shelf life of 12 months from the date of manufacture when stored in original, unopened containers at 20-25°C under dry conditions. As with all industrial chemicals this material should be stored in a covered, secure location and never in direct sunlight. Storage temperatures above the recommended range can shorten shelf life.
