3-Hydroxypropanoic acid, an acidic viscous liquid, is a propionic acid in which one of the hydrogens attached to the terminal carbon is replaced by a hydroxy group.
3-Hydroxypropanoic acid, an acidic viscous liquid, is a propionic acid in which one of the hydrogens attached to the terminal carbon is replaced by a hydroxy group. It has high solubility in water, ethanol, and diethyl ether. Upon distillation it produces acrylic acid and can be used to produce a biodegradable polymer polyester, called Poly(3-hydroxypropionic acid). Procurement Resource provides an in-depth cost analysis of 3-Hydroxypropanoic Acid production. The report incorporates the manufacturing process with detailed process and material flow, capital investment, operating costs along with financial expenses and depreciation charges. The study is based on the latest prices and other economic data available. We also offer additional analysis of the report with detailed breakdown of all cost components (Capital Investment Details, Production Cost Details, Economics for another Plant Location, Dynamic Cost Model).
