Trimesic Acid Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Benzene-1,3,5-Tricarboxylic Acid
- 1,3,5-Benzenetricarboxylic Acid
Trimesic acid is a trifunctional aromatic carboxylic acid for Malaysian specialty chemical, resin and advanced-material enquiries. It is also known as benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid or 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid.
Buyers may request synthesis, high-purity or resin-intermediate grades with controls for assay, moisture, colour, insoluble matter, trace metals and particle form. The appropriate specification depends on the reaction route and sensitivity of the finished material.
Trimesic acid is used as a building block in specialty synthesis, selected resin and crosslinking systems, coordination materials and metal-organic frameworks. It is distinct from terephthalic and isophthalic acids because it carries three carboxylic-acid groups.
Send the required trimesic acid grade, purity and impurity limits, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.
