Basic chemical intermediates play a vital role in the chemical industry as they are key raw materials for the production of various chemicals, plastics, pharmaceuticals and other industrial products. This blog will focus on four important basic chemical intermediates, including Tetrachloroethene, Propionic Acid, Paraformaldehyde and Methyl Methacrylate (MMA), discuss their properties, applications and their importance in industry.
Tetrachloroethene, also known as perchloroethylene, is commonly used as a solvent in dry cleaning and metal degreasing processes. Its chemical structure and properties make it an effective cleaner and degreaser, contributing to the efficiency of these industrial operations.
Propionic Acid, a carboxylic acid, is widely utilized in the food industry as a preservative for animal feed and grain storage. Its antimicrobial properties help prevent the growth of mold and bacteria, extending the shelf life of food products and ensuring their safety for consumption.
Paraformaldehyde is a polymer of formaldehyde that is commonly used as a disinfectant and preservative in various applications. Its ability to release formaldehyde gradually makes it an effective agent for sterilization and preservation in medical and laboratory settings.
Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) is a key monomer used in the production of acrylic plastics, adhesives, and coatings. Its versatility and excellent adhesion properties make it a popular choice for a wide range of applications, from automotive parts to signage and displays.
Basic chemical intermediates play an irreplaceable role in industrial production, and also bring a lot of convenience to daily life. For more information on intermediate products, please visit our website or contact us: info@dotachem.com.
