Hexadecanedioic acid (CAS: 505-54-4) is a C16 dicarboxylic acid primarily synthesized via oxidative cleavage of cyclohexane derivatives. Its molecular formula is C16H30O4, serving as a critical monomer for high-performance polyamides and plasticizers.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE to prevent skin contact; inhalation of dust may cause respiratory irritation. Not intended for direct clinical administration without pharmaceutical formulation.
