Trichloroacetic Acid Production Cost Reports

The Trichloroacetic Acid production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up the NPK production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of NPK. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Trichloroacetic acid is an organic compound. It is a monocarboxylic acid and an organochlorine chemical that, when in solid form, takes the shape of a clear crystal. It can turn into syrup after absorbing moisture from the air. It mixes with water easily and produces heat when it does. It is a conjugate acid of trichloroacetate and is generated from acetic acid. It is produced through the reaction of acetic acid and oxidation.

The structural formula of trichloroacetic acid is C2HCl3O2 and its molecular weight is 163.38 g/mol. The density of trichloroacetic acid is 1.63 g/cm³ and its boiling point is 196 °C. The melting point of trichloroacetic acid varies from 57°C to 58 °C. The PH of trichloroacetic acid is 1.2 and its pKa value is 0.66. It is acidic in nature and has a very pungent odour. It is a white crystalline solid and is highly soluble in water. It is corrosive and its dipole moment is 3.23 D.

Due to the strong reactivity of the carboxylic acid group and substitution of the direct interaction with a Chlorine atom, trichloroacetic acid is a synthetic organic intermediate that is employed as an acidic derivative such as salt, acyl chloride, ester, hydrazide, anhydride, and amide. Due to the rising demand for trichloroacetic acid for the manufacturing of glycine, the worldwide trichloroacetic acid market is anticipated to rise significantly over the course of the projected period.

Glycine is created when trichloroacetic acid and ammonia react, and it is utilised as a buffer in antacids, analgesics, antiperspirants, and personal care products. A positive driver for the market is anticipated to be the expanding use of this chemical in end-use sectors like healthcare, petrochemical, textiles, and personal care.
