Widely used as a solvent in the production of acrylic fibers and textiles due to its high thermal stability and ability to dissolve a broad range of organic and inorganic compounds. It plays a key role in polymer synthesis, especially in the processing of polyimides and polyamides, where it facilitates chain extension and polymerization reactions. Commonly employed in pharmaceutical manufacturing for reactions requiring polar aprotic conditions, enabling efficient nucleophilic substitutions. Also utilized in the electronics industry for the production of semiconductor resins and coatings. Its effectiveness in gas treating processes, such as the removal of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from natural gas streams, makes it valuable in petrochemical refining. Additionally, it serves as a carrier solvent in pesticide formulations and in the synthesis of agrochemicals.
