Application

1-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone (NMP) is a powerful and versatile aprotic solvent primarily used in agricultural formulations and synthesis applications, including insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides. As a lower alkyl pyrrolidone (methyl group, one carbon), it offers a unique combination of properties: a high boiling point, low vapor pressure, and excellent thermal and chemical stability. These characteristics make it highly effective as a primary solvent or as a co-solvent with water, alcohols, and other organic compounds.
