Frequently Asked Questions

Adipic Acid reacts with hexamethylenediamine to form Nylon 6,6, one of the strongest and most durable synthetic fibers.

Yes, it is an approved food additive (E355) used to provide a tart taste and regulate acidity.

It has low solubility in cold water, but its solubility increases significantly with temperature.

Industrial production releases nitrous oxide (a greenhouse gas), so major manufacturers use abatement technologies to minimize emissions.
