Succinic acid CAS 110-15-6

Succinic acid is a normal constituent of almost all plant and animal tissues. Succinic anhydride is the dehydration product of the acid. Succinic acid was first obtained as the distillate from amber (Latin, Succinum) for which it is named. It occurs in beet, brocoli, rhubarb, sauerkraut, cheese, meat, molasses, eggs, peat, coal, fruits, honey, and urine (Gardner, 1972; Winstrom, 1978; Doores, 1989). It is formed by the chemical and biochemical oxidation of fats, by alcoholic fermentation of sugar, and in numerous catalyzed oxidation processes. Succinic acid is also a major byproduct in the manufacture of adipic acid.

What is Succinic Acid?

Succinic Acid is a dicarboxylic acid that occurs naturally in plant and animal tissues, and it is a key intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. It is produced both by traditional chemical synthesis from petroleum-based feedstocks and by fermentation of renewable carbohydrates, making the bio-based route increasingly important. The compound is characterized by two carboxylic acid groups, which make it a valuable building block for the synthesis of various chemicals, polymers, and resins. It is soluble in water and has a characteristically sour taste.

Application:


Primary Use:

1.Succinic Acid as a key building block for the synthesis of various chemicals, including:


2. It used as an acidity regulator and flavor enhancer in the food and beverage industry (E363).

3. Applied in the production of alkyd resins and surface coatings.

4. Used in metal finishing and electroplating baths.

5. Serves as a chelating agent in chemical processes.

6. An intermediate for dyes and pigments.

Safety profile:

Succinic acid is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food. It has low toxicity but may cause irritation to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract, particularly in powder form due to its acidity. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including dust masks, gloves, and safety glasses when handling. Good industrial hygiene practices should be maintained.


Storage requirements:

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture, strong oxidizing agents, and strong bases. Keep containers tightly closed to prevent caking and contamination.


Transport & Packaging:

Typically supplied in 25 kg polyethylene-lined paper or woven plastic bags. Classified as non-hazardous for transport.
