About Maleic Acid Practical Grade
Maleic Acid, also known as Toxolic Acid, Maleinic Acid, and cis-Butenedioic acid has the chemical formula C4H4O4. It appears as a colorless crystalline solid possessing a characteristic repulsive taste with a faint odor. It is soluble in Water, Acetone, and Ether. It is used as a raw material for the production of various chemicals for the dyeing and finishing of natural fibers. It is prepared by the hydrolysis of Maleic Anhydride. Purified Grade, also known as Pure or Practical Grade, refers to those high-purity compounds that do not fulfill the ACS, the USP, or the FCC grade requirements. They are mostly used in conjunction with Lab Grade chemicals. In the United States of America (USA), Lab Alley is selling its high-quality Maleic Acid, Purified Grade online at laballey.com.
