Storage Stability:
|
In sealed original packing 12 months from production date, see remarks below*).
|
Storage Conditions:
|
Room temperature. We recommend maintaining the storage temperature between 20-40
|

|
Annotations:
|
Content and acid number are valid for the day of production.
|
*) 3-mercaptopropionic acid tends to oxidize at contact with air. This is the main reason for a slow decrease of content. The evolving water causes a slight increase of the acid number. Storage time is valid exclusively for originally sealed packages.
Standard Packaging:

Application:
3-Mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA, MPA) and its derivatives are versatile compounds which are used as chain transfer and cross-linking agents in polymerizations, and as reactive intermediates in the production of PVC stabilizers. These compounds may also be useful as acidic ion exchange co-catalysts, coupling agents, and in UV-curable formulations.
