UNSPSC 12352131: Pyrrolidone

An organic compound used in industrial settings as a high-boiling non-corrosive polar solvent for a wide variety of applications. It is an intermediate product in the manufacture of polymers.

UNSPSC 12352131 Pyrrolidone is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement records but does not align clearly with the recent solicitations tagged under it. The three most recent opportunities—herbicide quotation (City of Philadelphia), hypochlorous acid generator purchase and installation (Escambia County Board of County Commissioners), and sludge hauling and liquid waste disposal services (Brazos River Authority)—fall outside the scope of pyrrolidone procurement. Pyrrolidone is a specialty organic solvent used in pharmaceuticals, electronics, coatings, and industrial applications; none of these recent postings address chemical solvent acquisition or pyrrolidone-specific sourcing. The code shows minimal recent state and local activity aligned with its nominal product scope.

The three opportunities represent water quality, environmental, and facilities management work across distinct issuing bodies—a city procurement department, a county board of commissioners, and a regional water authority—but neither herbicides, disinfectant generators, nor waste hauling services constitute pyrrolidone procurement. Geographic spread spans Pennsylvania (Philadelphia), Florida (Escambia County), and Texas (Brazos River Authority). Without recent opportunities that match the pyrrolidone commodity definition, the code does not present a clear market signal for pursuit in state and local procurement at this time.
