Dimerum acid

Description:

Dimerum acid, identified by its CAS number 26912-16-3, is a dimeric fatty acid derived from the polymerization of unsaturated fatty acids, particularly those found in natural oils. It typically features a long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics. Dimerum acid is known for its high molecular weight and is often utilized in the production of various industrial products, including surfactants, lubricants, and coatings. Its structure allows for enhanced viscosity and stability in formulations, making it valuable in applications requiring improved performance under varying conditions. Additionally, dimerum acid can exhibit properties such as good thermal stability and resistance to oxidation, which are advantageous in many chemical processes. While it is not as widely recognized as some other fatty acids, its unique properties make it a useful compound in specialized applications within the chemical industry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage guidelines, as with any chemical substance.

Dimerum acid

CAS: 26912-16-3

Dimerum acid is a dihydroxamate (dihydroxamate) type iron carrier (siderophore) found in Penicillium chrysogenum. It serves as a precursor or degradation product of coprogen and significantly enhances iron uptake in Strategy I plants (such as cucumber) and Strategy II plants (such as maize). At a pH of 6.0, dimerum acid releases bioavailable Fe3+ through ligand exchange with plant-secreted phytosiderophore (phytosiderophore, PS) or EDTA, thereby improving iron supply efficiency in plants. Dimerum acid is applicable in research related to plant iron nutrition and agriculture.
