Advantages of 1-Butene
1-Butene is widely used as a comonomer in the production of polyethylenes, especially Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE). This enhances properties like flexibility and strength in the resulting plastics. In polypropylene/1-butene (PPB) copolymers, increasing the 1-butene content can lead to improved impact strength, wider foaming temperature windows, and enhanced energy absorption efficiency. 1-Butene serves as an intermediate for various specialty chemicals like sec-butanol, butene oxide, and amyl alcohol.

Basic chemical raw material: High purity 1-butene has a wide range of applications in the chemical industry. It is mainly used for dehydrogenation to produce butadiene, which is an important raw material for synthetic rubber; at the same time, butene can also generate alcohol compounds such as n-butanol and sec-butanol through hydration reactions. In addition, the isomers of butene also have their own unique application value. For example, 1-butene and 2-butene can be used to synthesize c4, c5 derivatives and make cross-linking agents, composite gasoline, etc.; isobutylene is the raw material for making butyl rubber and polyisobutylene rubber.
Basic raw material for petrochemicals: By cracking raw materials such as petroleum gas, butene-rich fractions can be obtained. After further separation and purification, these fractions can be used to produce various organic chemical raw materials and polymer materials.
Preparation Method of 1-Butene
1-Butene is produced by separation from crude C4 refinery streams and by ethylene dimerization. The former affords a mixture of 1-and 2-butenes, while the latter affords only the terminal alkene. It is distilled to give a very high purity product.
Due to the flammable and explosive properties of 1-butene, safety regulations must be strictly observed during storage and use. First, 1-butene should be stored in a cool and ventilated warehouse, away from fire and heat sources, and avoid direct sunlight. Secondly, the storage area should be equipped with corresponding fire-fighting facilities and leakage emergency treatment equipment to ensure that it can be disposed of quickly and effectively in an emergency. In addition, operators should wear appropriate protective equipment, such as anti-static work clothes, explosion-proof glasses, etc., to reduce the possibility of accidents.
