DC12S - Dodecanedioic Acid

DC12S - Dodecanedioic Acid by Cathay Industrial Biotech is a family of organic compounds with a chemical formula of HOOC(CH₂)₁₀COOH. These compounds are known as 'long-chain dicarboxylic acids' when the total carbon number is greater than nine (n>7). Long-chain diacids provide greater flexibility and strength than short-chain diacids due to their ability to bend, which minimizes breakage as well as reduces the number of links in a polymer. DC12S - Dodecanedioic Acid is produced from paraffin through fermentation followed by purification, rather than the traditional multi-step chemical process.
