  1. Tetrahydrofuran (THF), or oxolane, is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 4 O. The compound is classified as heterocyclic compound, specifically a cyclic ether. It is a colorless, water- miscible organic liquid with low viscosity. It is mainly used as a precursor to polymers. [8]

  2. THF is highly volatile with a low flash point (1 °F) and flammability limit of 2%. Its heavier-than-air vapors can travel at low profile for considerable distances and flash back to the point of origin. Further, unstabilized THF forms peroxides upon exposure to air or light, which, if allowed to accumulate above 1% become thermally explosive.
