printWho is the largest exporter of acetic acid
Hello, dear customers of Kimia Tejarat Behnam International Company, on this page we intend to provide you with all the information related to the purchase of acetic acid and its supply.
What is acetic acid
Acetic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH3COOH. A common symbol for acetic acid is AcOH. In terms of appearance, it is a colorless liquid and is also known by other names such as ethanoic acid, methane carboxylic acid and sometimes glacial acetic acid (anhydrous acetic acid). Acetic acid has a characteristic sour taste and pungent smell. It is a hydrophilic (polar) protic solvent, similar to ethanol and water. Acetic acid has the ability to dissolve polar and non-polar compounds with its moderate relative static power. The property of solubility and miscibility of acetic acid makes it a useful industrial chemical as a solvent in the production of dimethyl terephthalate.
This simple carboxylic acid is classified as a weak acid because it is only partially extracted from solution, but concentrated acetic acid is corrosive and can attack the skin. This weak acid undergoes complete decomposition only when it reacts with a strong base.
Salt, ester or acetyl acetic acid is called acetate. Industrially, acetic acid is used in the preparation of metal acetates, which are used in some printing processes. This organic compound has antibacterial properties and may contribute to the dissolution of lipids and the accumulation of fatty acids on the cell membrane. Therefore, this product is used in the production of disinfectants.
Production of acetic acid
The main methods of producing acetic acid are using methanol lipid carbonylation, acetaldehyde oxidation, butane or naphtha oxidation, and methyl acetate carbonylation. Relatively small amounts of acetic acid are produced by liquid phase oxidation of butane, direct oxidation of ethanol and synthesis gas. In industry, acetic acid is produced artificially by bacterial fermentation. Acetic acid is often a byproduct of various reactions, including the production of lactic acid by fermentation.
What is acetic acid used for?
Diluted acetic acid as vinegar is widely used for cleaning utensils, laundry, cooking and many other household uses. Farmers usually spray this acid on livestock silage to combat the growth of bacteria and fungi.
One million tons of acetic acid is produced every year, which is a lot! While we usually know that acetic acid is used in vinegar, it has many more uses and is a very important chemical compound used in many industrial processes.
In the food industry, this acid is used as an acidity regulator. The acetyl group, a derivative of acetic acid, is required for the biochemistry of almost all life forms.
tip
Synthetic acetic acid has antibacterial and antifungal properties. Although the mechanism is not fully understood, it may increase lipid solubility and increase the accumulation of fatty acids in the cell membrane or other cell wall structures. As a weak acid, this substance can prevent the metabolism of carbohydrates and as a result the death of microorganisms.
When this substance is attached to coenzyme A, it plays an essential role in the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. However, the concentration of free acetic acid in the cells is kept low to prevent disruption of the pH control of the cell contents. This acid is produced and secreted by certain bacteria, especially Stobacter and Clostrodium Stobacterum.
These bacteria are usually found in food, water and soil, and acetic acid is naturally produced in fruits and some foods. This acid is also a component of vaginal secretions in humans and other primates and appears to act as a weak antibacterial agent.
This material is used as a proteric solvent, food acidity regulator, antimicrobial food preservative.
On an industrial scale, acetic acid is used in the preparation of metal acetates, which are used in some printing processes, in the production of vinyl acetate and in the production of plastics, cellulose acetate, in the production of photographic films and textiles.
Biologically, this acid is an important metabolic intermediate and occurs naturally in body fluids and plant juices.

LPG:
Liquefied petroleum gas or LPG (in English: Liquefied Petroleum Gas) refers to two hydrocarbon gases, butane and propane,
or their combination,
which are
kept in a liquid state. Usually, small amounts of compounds such as propylene and butylene are also present in liquid gas. LPG is
mostly used for heating applications and as fuel for vehicles. It is
also used in the manufacture of sprinklers and as a cooling gas in cooling devices such as refrigerators and freezers.
sulfur:
(in English: Sulfur) is
placed in the periodic table on the left side of chlorine, below oxygen and above selenium, and its chemical symbol is
S and its atomic number is 16. The discovery of this element goes back to prehistoric times. Therefore
It is a smelly, foul-tasting and polyvalent non-metal that is mostly available in the form of yellow crystals. Flea killer is useful for fertilizer and agriculture. This element is
primarily used in fertilizers; But it is
also widely used in gunpowder, softeners, matches and insecticides.
oil:
What is engine oil?
They are complex compounds consisting of base oil and various additives. Every car needs the right engine oil to function properly. In fact, engine oil is an essential element for the car engine. As the age of the engine increases, the importance of using high-quality oil is
felt more and more.
What is base oil?
It is
called an oil and is
considered as a base for lubricants. After adding additives to the base oil, the final lubricant is
obtained. Base oils are the most important components of lubricants in terms of volume, and in terms of weight, on average, they make up more than 95% of the formulation of a lubricant.

Nitric acid is soluble in water and is also a strong oxidizer that is very corrosive and toxic. This substance reacts with metals, oxides and hydroxides and forms nitrate salts.
Monoathanolamin:
Amino alcohol has been
produced industrially since 1930. However, their large-scale production began only after 1945, when the older chlorohydrin process was
replaced by ethylene oxide and propylene oxide olefination processes. In industry, amino alcohols are
usually defined as
alkanolamines. Ethanolamines (aminoethanols) and propanolamines (aminopropanols) are important compounds of this group. Both mentioned substances are
widely used in the production of surfactant powders in gas purification.
Ethylene glycol (ethane diol):
Ethylene glycol (ethane diol) or ethyl glycol or mono ethylene glycol is an organic compound with 2 formulas (C2H6O2 and CH2OH). It is
basically used for two purposes. This material is
used as a raw material in the production of polyester fibers and is
also used for the formulation of antifreeze products. Ethylene glycol is a thick (viscous) liquid, colorless, odorless, and sweet in taste.
