Itaconic acid is an organic di-carbonic acid that is majorly associated with coatings, plastic, resin, polymer, and chemical industries. Itaconic acid is mainly used to formulate a wide range of compounds such as resins, paints, plastics, and synthetic fibers. It serves as a raw material and can be used in the production of its derivatives, such as poly-itaconic acid, etc.
It can be used to develop resins, biofuel components, ionomer cement, etc. In addition, it finds use in manufacturing paper products, plastic products, plastic additives, various paints, etc. As it has a primary application in the plastic and paint industry, it can be readily incorporated into polymers since an unsaturated di-carbonic acid makes it ideal as a comonomer in polymers.
The acid's polymerized methyl, ethyl, or vinyl esters find usage in products such as plastics, adhesives, elastomers, and coatings that offer high-quality properties such as excellent strength and flexibility and water-proof coatings with good electrical insulation. Similarly, it is included in synthetic fibers, lattices, detergents, and cleaners in the chemical industry.
Itaconic acid has a strong demand covering the plastic, polymer, resins, chemical, and coatings industries. Its demand observed in the production of its derivatives including poly-itaconic acid, etc., that are further used in polymer products, strengthens its market growth. Moreover, its usage in the preparation of coatings, resins, paints, and synthetic fibers such as acrylic plastic, super absorbents, etc., drives its demand in the chemical, resin, and plastic industries. Its large-scale association in the production of such varieties of polymers and chemicals (including methyl-, ethyl-itaconic acid esters) boosts its demand in the global market.
The rise or fall in its demand directly governs industrial itaconic procurement. Similarly, other prominent factors such as the production and processing cost of itaconic acid, its market prices, supply, logistics, trade, and governmental regulations also impact its procurement. Its demand in plastic, polymers, and chemical sectors, along with the variation in its prices, contributes towards its procurement, ensuring proper supply while strengthening its market growth.
Raw Material for Itaconic Acid Production
According to the itaconic acid manufacturing plant project report, the key raw material for itaconic acid production includes citric acid; dimethyl succinate-formaldehyde; glucose syrup or molasses (for fermentation of agar medium).
Manufacturing Process of Itaconic Acid
The extensive itaconic acid production cost report consists of the major industrial manufacturing process:
- From Citric Acid: Itaconic acid is an organic acid produced by dry distillation of citric acid, followed by hydrolyzation.
- By Condensation: The manufacturing process of itaconic acid is carried by the chemical reaction between dimethyl succinate and formaldehyde. The reaction results in the condensation of dimethyl succinate and gives itaconic acid at the end.
- By Fermentation: Itaconic acid is prepared by the fermentation of Aspergillus itaconicus bacteria using culturing medium with carbon content.
Itaconic acid or methylidene succinic acid (C5H6O4) is an organic compound occurring naturally or produced by Escherichia coli (strain K12, MG1655). It is an unsaturated organic diacid, a replacement for acrylic acid and has the role of platform chemical. It is a dicarboxylic acid which is methacrylic acid, where one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a carboxylic acid group. It functions like a fungal metabolite and a human metabolite. It classifies as an olefinic compound, a dicarboxylic acid, and a dicarboxylic fatty acid. It has functional relation to succinic acid, a conjugate acid of an itaconate(2-).
The acid has a colourless-white appearance with a crystalline form and a specific odour. It is a non-toxic chemical compound which is easily biodegradable. It's a hygroscopic powder soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone. Its various derivative includes styrene butadiene itaconic acid, methyl methacrylate, polyitaconic Acid, and others. It is used in various applications such as SBR latex, synthetic latex, chillant dispersant agents, and others. Its respective melting and boiling point are 167–168 °C and 268 °C. It has a solubility of 83.1 g l−1 in water and a density of 1.63 (20 °C).
