APPLICATIONS |
||
Butanetetracarboxylic acid has four carboxy groups in one molecule. This multifunctional carboxylic acid provides covalently linked structure with hydroxy group. This can be applied in fabric treatment to improve durable press rating and wrinkle recovery and paper to restrict the swelling of water. Carboxylic acids form amide derivatives. Butanetetracarboxylic acid is a starting material to produce aromatic polyimide resins having high resistance to thermal stresses. It is a metal chelator. It is used as a corrosion inhibitor and a metal-cleaning composition. | ||
