| Application: | Azelaic acid can be used: • As a bio-based monomer in the development of biodegradable polymers. These polymers are explored for a range of applications, including packaging materials, agricultural films, and other products where biodegradability is a key requirement. • As a crucial component in the synthesis of biodegradable copolyester plasticizers for PVC applications. • As a monomer in the synthesizing poly(glycerol azelaic acid) for tissue engineering applications. Its contributions to biocompatibility, mechanical properties, degradation behavior, and hydrophilicity make it an essential building block for developing advanced biomaterials aimed at enhancing tissue regeneration processes. In drug delivery systems, azelaic acid may play a role in the synthesis of polymers or other compounds used in drug delivery, potentially enhancing medication effectiveness through improved solubility or stability. • In skincare products. |
| General description: | Azelaic acid is an important monomer in the synthesis of various polymers. The presence of two carboxylic acid groups enables azelaic acid to act as a monomer for polycondensation reactions, leading to the formation of polyesters and other polymeric materials. Additionally, it is also used to prepare azelaic acid-based plasticizers to improve the mechanical properties of PVC, making them suitable for various applications, including films, coatings, and flexible products. |
