Adipic Acid: An Essential Raw Material in Several Industrial Applications
Hexanedioic acid is produced on an industrial scale via a two-step process. In the first step, a mixture of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone undergoes oxidation in the presence of a nitric acid/acetic acid catalyst system to form a mixture of cyclohexanone oxime and cyclohexanol oxime. This mixture is then hydrolyzed using sulfuric acid to yield hexanedioic acid. Hexanedioic acid is an organic...
