97-65-4
Product name: Itaconic Acid
English alias: Methylenesuccinic acid; 2-Methylidenebutanedioic acid.
CAS: 97-65-4
Molecular formula: C5H6O4
Appearance: WHITE CRYSTALS
Package: 25kg/bag
Itaconic Acid is a bio-based unsaturated dicarboxylic acid produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates by microorganisms such as Aspergillus terreus. As a renewable platform chemical, it features a unique molecular structure containing two carboxyl groups and one conjugated double bond, enabling its widespread use in polymer synthesis, resin modification, and green chemistry. Itaconic acid is considered an environmentally friendly alternative to petroleum-based acrylic and methacrylic acids, playing a significant role in sustainable industrial development.

1.Polymer Industry: Serves as a monomer for synthesizing polyitaconic acid, resins, and biodegradable plastics.
2.Coatings & Adhesives: Used in water-based latexes, paints, and adhesives to improve hardness and water resistance.
3.Textile & Fiber: Functions as a crosslinking agent and modifier in fiber manufacturing and fabric finishing.
4.Superabsorbent Polymers: Applied in the production of eco-friendly sanitary products and hydrogel materials.
5.Detergents & Dispersants: Used as a chelating agent and builder in detergents and scale inhibitors.
6.Bio-based Chemicals: Acts as a platform compound for synthesizing biofuels, flavors, and pharmaceutical intermediates.
Itaconic acid is biodegradable and considered low in toxicity. It may cause mild irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and goggles is recommended during handling. It is not classified as a hazardous substance under normal conditions of use.
