1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white fine crystalline powder

Uses

1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid may be used in the synthesis of:

• polyesters
• polyamides
• poly(butylene adipate-co-butylene 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate) copolyester

Definition

ChEBI: 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid is a dicarboxylic acid that is cyclohexane substituted by carboxy groups at positions 1 and 4.

General Description

1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid (1,4-CHDA) has cyclohexane based structure. CHDA has better weatherability, higher impact strength, and faster stress relaxation. CHDA exhibits three isomeric forms:

• axial, axial (a,a) trans-isomer
• equatorial, equatorial (e,e) trans-isomer
• a,e cis-isomer

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
