Adipic Acid (Adi-pure®)
Adi-pure® high-purity adipic acid (hexanedioic acid) is a crystalline, white powder that exhibits typical carboxylic acid chemistry suitable for a wide variety of applications. The high purity, excellent uniformity, and consistent end-use performance of Adi-pure® makes it a valuable intermediate in a wide range of applications, including the following:
- as a monomer in nylon, paper additives, copolyamides, terpolymers, and unsaturated polyester resins (UPRs)
- in polymer additives for epoxy curing agents and plasticizers
- as a chemical intermediate in synthesis of polyesters/diesters, polyester polyols, adiponitrile, cyclopentanone, 1,6-hexanediol, and dimethyl sebacate
- in other applications such as solvents, lubricants, electronics, soil conditioners, glass protection agents, briquetting agents, leather tanning agents, food additives (meets FDA regulation 21 CFR 184.1009), flue gas desulfurization scrubbers, and cleaning aids
