Dimethylformamide (DMF) Solvent Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- DMF
- N,N-Dimethylformamide
- N,N-Dimethylmethanamide
- DMF Solvent
Dimethylformamide supplier for industrial solvent buyers in Malaysia. Also called DMF, N,N-dimethylformamide and N,N-dimethylmethanamide, this clear colourless liquid is a high-boiling polar aprotic solvent used where strong solvency for polymers and polar organics is required.
Commercial offers are usually selected as industrial solvent grade for general process work, or as a higher-purity solvent grade when water or impurity limits are tighter. Send the required assay, water target and application with your enquiry so the quotation can match the process need.
Manufacturers use DMF as a reaction medium, in polyurethane synthetic leather production, and as a spinning solvent for acrylic and spandex fibres. Pharmaceutical plants use it in intermediate chemistry, while plastics and electronics processes may specify it where ordinary solvents are not strong enough.
Handle dimethylformamide with suitable protective equipment and good ventilation, and follow the safety data sheet for the quoted grade. Send the grade, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing and documentation are confirmed with the quotation.

Common questions about dimethylformamide
What is dimethylformamide (DMF) used for?
DMF is a high-boiling polar aprotic solvent used in chemical synthesis, polyurethane synthetic leather, acrylic and spandex fibre spinning, pharmaceutical process chemistry, selected plastics work and some electronics manufacturing. State the application when enquiring so the grade can be matched to the duty.
Is DMF the same as N,N-dimethylformamide?
Yes. DMF is the common abbreviation for N,N-dimethylformamide, also written as N,N-dimethylmethanamide. In other contexts the letters DMF can mean Drug Master File or dimethyl fumarate; this page covers the industrial solvent only.
Which DMF grade should I request?
Industrial solvent grade suits general synthesis, PU leather and routine process dissolving. Higher-purity solvent grade is usually preferred when a process needs tighter water or impurity control, for example selected pharmaceutical, fibre or electronics duties. Send the target specification with the enquiry.
What specifications matter for dimethylformamide?
Buyers commonly confirm appearance, assay, water content and any impurity limits required by the process. Include the current specification, a sample requirement or the critical limits so the quoted grade can be checked against them.
Can documentation and packing be confirmed with the quotation?
Yes. List any required product documents and preferred pack format in the enquiry. Available documentation, packing and commercial details are confirmed for the quoted grade.
How do I get a dimethylformamide price in Malaysia?
Send the grade or purity target, application, quantity and delivery location. Mention documentation needs and preferred packing so the quotation can address the complete requirement. Prices are given on enquiry with a stated validity period.
