Chemical Properties

Succinic acid,C02H(CH2)2C02H, also known as butanedioic acid,butane diacid, and amber acid, is a colorless odorless prisms or white crystalline powder that melts at 185°C (364 of). Soluble in water and alcohol, it is used as a chemical intermediate, Succinic acid is used in lacquers,medicine,dyes,and as a taste modifier.

Uses

succinic acid is widely use as organic intermediates for the pharmaceutical, engineering plastics, resins etc.. For the synthesis of sedatives, contraceptives and cancer drugs in the pharmaceutical industry. In the chemical industry for the production of dyes, alkyd resin, glass fiber reinforced plastics, ion exchange resins and pesticides.

Uses

Succinic Acid is an acidulant that is commercially prepared by the hydrogenation of maleic or fumaric acid. it is a nonhygroscopic acid but is more soluble in 25°c water than fumaric and adipic acid. it has low acid strength and slow taste build-up; it is not a substitute for normal acidulants. it combines with proteins in modifying the plasticity of bread dough. it functions as an acidulant and flavor enhancer in relishes, beverages, and hot sausages.
