High Quality Levulinic Acid Cas 123-76-2 is a versatile organic compound. It has a molecular formula of C₅H₈O₃ and a molecular weight of approximately 116.12 g/mol. This white to light - yellow crystalline solid is soluble in water, ethanol, and ether. It has a melting point ranging from 33 - 35 °C and a boiling point of around 245 - 246 °C. The purity of our high - quality levulinic acid is carefully controlled to meet the highest industry standards, ensuring its effectiveness in various applications.
1. **Chemical Intermediate**: Levulinic acid serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of a wide range of chemicals. It can be used to produce solvents, plasticizers, and pharmaceuticals. For example, it can be converted into gamma - valerolactone (GVL), which is a promising bio - based solvent with low toxicity and high solubility.
2. **Fuel Additive**: It can be used as a fuel additive to improve the performance of fuels. When added to gasoline or diesel, it can enhance the octane number and reduce emissions, making the fuel more environmentally friendly and efficient.
3. **Agricultural Applications**: In the agricultural field, levulinic acid can be used as a plant growth regulator. It can promote root development, increase the resistance of plants to diseases and pests, and improve crop yields.
1. **Handling Precautions**: When handling high - quality levulinic acid, it is essential to wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles. Avoid inhalation of dust or vapors, and keep the product away from open flames and heat sources. Store the product in a cool, dry place in a tightly sealed container.
2. **Dilution and Mixing**: If the product needs to be diluted, use appropriate solvents such as water or ethanol. Stir the mixture gently to ensure uniform distribution. When using levulinic acid as an additive in chemical reactions or formulations, follow the recommended dosage and reaction conditions provided by the supplier or based on scientific research.
3. **Safety Measures**: In case of contact with skin or eyes, immediately rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical advice. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting and seek emergency medical treatment immediately.
1. **Chemical Synthesis Case**: A chemical manufacturing company used our high - quality levulinic acid as an intermediate to synthesize GVL. By following optimized reaction conditions, they were able to achieve a high yield of GVL. The GVL produced was then used as a solvent in a paint formulation. The paint showed excellent solubility, drying properties, and environmental performance, meeting the strict industry standards.
2. **Fuel Additive Case**: An automotive research institution added our levulinic acid to a diesel fuel sample. After testing in a diesel engine, they found that the octane number of the fuel increased significantly, and the emissions of particulate matter and nitrogen oxides were reduced. This demonstrated the potential of levulinic acid as an effective fuel additive for improving fuel quality and reducing environmental impact.
3. **Agricultural Case**: A farm applied our levulinic acid as a plant growth regulator on a wheat field. The wheat plants treated with levulinic acid showed stronger root systems and higher resistance to diseases. At the end of the growing season, the wheat yield increased by 15% compared to the untreated area, indicating the positive effect of levulinic acid on crop production.
