At a glance for your formula

1,3-Butylene glycol remains a Refine Americas catalogue lead recorded in the supplied workbook. No specific commercial grade, application recommendation or product document was established. The catalogue could not be retrieved during this update, so its earlier bio-based listing has not been upgraded to a verified claim. Confirm stereochemical composition and whether a personal-care or industrial grade is offered. Obtain supplier documentation before assigning market tags, approving a formulation use or evaluating substitution.

Grade-specific screening values have not been recorded. Consult the selected supplier’s technical reference.

Refine Americas bio-based 1,3-Butylene glycol; CAS 107-88-0

Refine Americas · Supplier-reported · Awaiting human review

Listed claims

  • Supplier lists bio-based 1,3-Butylene glycol.

Suggested applications

  • Not established for the supplier grade; request an application bulletin.

Sustainability highlights

  • Earlier catalogue listing describes a bio-based option
  • renewable fraction and certification remain unconfirmed.

Performance highlights

  • No grade-specific performance claim established.

Grade scope & review questions

  • Live catalogue returned an HTTP 500 error on 2026-11-03. Existing catalogue-lead status and claim tags are retained; no new grade claim is inferred.
  • Gap: Named grade and commercial availability not established.
  • Gap: Grade-specific SDS/TDS, feedstock evidence and applications required.
  • Gap: Confirm stereochemical composition and whether a personal-care or industrial grade is offered.
  • Gap: No verified lower-dose, low-VOC or non-hazardous claim.
  • Catalogue-only supplier lead; exact-grade SDS/TDS and application qualification remain gaps.
  • CAS 107-88-0 identifies the underlying chemical. It does not establish commercial-grade purity, stabilizers, renewable origin or batch composition.

4 of 16 defined fields are recorded with a source. This measures structured information currently on this site, not the completeness of every linked PDF. Missing fields remain in the denominator.

Coverage is separate from scientific accuracy, human verification and EcoSafe assessment. Molecular fields may not apply to a grade or family; they are not filled from another material to increase its score.
