Adipic Acid

Adipic acid, also known as fatty acid, is an important organic dibasic acid with the structural formula HOOC(CH2)4COOH. It can undergo salt-forming reaction, esterification reaction, amidation reaction, etc., and can be polycondensed with diamine or glycol to form high molecular polymer, etc. Adipic acid is an industrially important dicarboxylic acid, which plays an important role in chemical production, organic synthesis industry, medicine, lubricant manufacturing, etc. Its output ranks second among all dicarboxylic acids.

chemical properties
The functional group of adipic acid is a carboxyl group, so it will have the properties of a carboxyl group, such as salt formation reaction, esterification reaction, amidation reaction, etc. At the same time, as a dicarboxylic acid, it can also be polycondensed with diamine or diol to form high molecular polymers.

The main purpose
Adipic acid is mainly used as a raw material for nylon 66 and engineering plastics, and is also used in the production of various ester products, as a raw material for polyurethane elastomers, and as an acidulant for various foods and beverages. Citric and tartaric acid.
Adipic acid is also a raw material for medicine, yeast purification, pesticides, adhesives, synthetic leather, synthetic dyes and fragrances.
Adipic acid has a soft and long-lasting sour taste, and the pH value changes less in a large concentration range, so it is a better pH value regulator. GB2760-2007 stipulates that the maximum usage of this product for solid beverages is 0.01g/kg; it can also be used for jelly and jelly powder, and the maximum usage for jelly is 0.01g/kg; Adjust the multiplier to increase the usage.

storage and transportation
Package
Closed operation. Operators must undergo special training and strictly abide by operating procedures. Factory operators must wear self-priming filter dust masks, anti-gas permeable work clothes, labor insurance shoes and rubber gloves, and filter gas masks if necessary. Smoking is strictly prohibited in the workplace. Use explosion-proof ventilation systems and equipment. Avoid generating dust. When handling, it should be lightly loaded and unloaded to prevent damage to packaging and containers. And be aware that emptied containers may have harmful residues.
store
Store in a cool, ventilated, rain-proof warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. It should be stored separately from oxidants, reducing agents and alkalis, and should not be mixed. Equipped with the corresponding variety and quantity of fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment. Storage areas should be provided with suitable materials to contain spills.
transportation
The packaging should be complete and the loading should be secure at the time of shipment. During transportation, make sure that the container does not leak, collapse, fall or be damaged. It is strictly forbidden to mix and transport with oxidants, reducing agents, alkalis, edible chemicals, etc. During transportation, it should be protected from exposure to sunlight, rain, and high temperature. The vehicle should be thoroughly cleaned after transportation.
