FAQs of Adipic Acid (AA)
Q.
What happens when adipic acid is heated?
A.
There are two kinds: 1. HOOC-(CH2)4-COOH first removes a water molecule to form hexanedioic anhydride: C6H10O4==heating==C6H8O3+H2O. 2. Further heating decomposition to cyclopentanone, carbon dioxide, water: C6H10O4==heating==C5H8O+CO2+H2O
Q.
What is the use of adipic acid?
A.
The material has a protein-like structure and can be further processed into fibers, so 90% of it is used for nylon production. Adipic acid can also be used as a plasticizer and lubricant.
Q.
How adipic acid is formed?
A.
It is said that an authoritative report says that adipic acid can be produced by oxidizing cyclohexane.
Q.
Does adipic acid dissolve in water?
A.
Solubility of adipic acid: slightly soluble in water, slightly soluble in ether, soluble in ethanol
