Undecanedioic Acid (Corvay)

Undecanedioic Acid distributed by Corvay Specialty Chemicals is a building block for the production of polyesters and polyamides. It is a long chain dicarboxylic acid, also known as DC11 or UDDA. It consists of an unbranched carbon backbone which offers flexibility and hydrophobic properties to the acid. It can undergo polymerization reactions with different monomers to form polymers with desired properties, which can be used in applications such as engineering plastics.

• Undecanedioic Acid is a white, crystalline solid with a melting point that is typically lower than that of dodecanedioic acid.
• It can be derived from various sources including petrochemical feedstocks & renewable resources.
• It is typically produced through the oxidation of long-chain alkanes or by the microbial fermentation of fatty acids.
• It has a shelf life of 3 years.
• It is REACH registered.
