Methyl Ester Sulphonate Production Cost Analysis 2020

Methyl Ester Sulphonate (MES) is a common name for the compound 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid. Its chemical structure includes a morpholine ring. It has a chemical formula C6H13NO4S and has a molecular weight of 195.2.

MES is used as a buffering agent in biology and biochemistry. It has a pKa value of 6.15 at 20 °C. The pH (and pKa at ionic strength I≠0) of the buffer solution changes with concentration and temperature, and this effect may be predicted using online calculators.

MES is highly soluble in water. The melting point of this chemical compound is approx. 300 °C. It was developed as one of Good's buffers in the 1960s. It finds extensive use as a non-coordinating buffer in chemistry involving metal ions, as many common buffers like acetate and phosphate readily form coordination complexes.
