Product Information

• Name: 4-Fluorophthalic acid
• Synonyms: 4-Fluorobenzene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Fluorophthalic acid is a monomer that forms polymers with high molecular weights. 4-Fluorophthalic acid is soluble in water and has been shown to be effective as a disinfectant. It has also been shown to have strong antifungal activity against Candida albicans and other species of yeast, due to its ability to penetrate the cell wall. Fluorinated surfaces have been shown to have increased resistance to bacterial colonization, which may be due to an increase in surface wettability or the formation of a fluorocarbon film on the surface. 4-Fluorophthalic acid can be used for the production of covid-19 (pandemic influenza vaccine), which is a vaccine that contains small quantities of 4-fluorophthalic acid, making it more stable during storage. The presence of this molecule makes it possible for Covid-19 vaccines to be safely stored at room temperature without refrigeration
