What is adipate?
Adipic acid from which adipate comes from is the form of white powder, which is usually produced rather than in nature. Chemically, adipic acid belongs to the class of dicarboxylic acids, organic compounds that have two functional groups of carboxylic acid. The compound is organic if it contains carbon. The chemical pattern of adipic acid is (ch 2 bs>) 4 sub> (CO 2 h) 2 . Asko acid whenIt is added to the water, releases hydrogen ions or charged hydrogen atoms, giving it a lower pH and an acidic taste. In its capacity as a food additive, adipate serves as an acidity regulator or as a pH control agent. The acid regulator is added to change the acidity or alkalinity of the food. Each acidity regulator has an ENT number E. The potassium adipate, which is potassium salt consisting of adipic acid, has E "E357" and sodium adipit, which is sodium salt arising from adipic acid reaction, has E "E356". These compounds give food to the sour taste and can be used as a gel agent. Deha is a plasticizer used in aircraft lubricants, plastic wrap food and hydraulic fluids. Hydraulic fluids are liquids that transmit power in hydraulic machines, such as the driving system in the car. A plasticizer of the Jesloučenina, which, as soon as it wasadded, causes the substance to be more malleable. Deha was once on the list of toxic chemicals of the EPA Agency Agency Agency Agency Protection Agency (EPA) because of the belief that Deha was a possible human carcinogen or cancer causing a substance. Although the tests on mice have shown carcinogenicity, other tests have caused doubts as to whether the compound could cause cancer in humans and stimulate EPA to remove Deha from its list of toxic chemicals. Diocyl adipate, which is often confused with Deha, is also a softener. DOA is pale to pure, oily liquid, which is often used as ingredients in plastic food containers, antiperspirates and lubricants. This compound remains flexible under cold conditions, resists heat relatively well, resists weathering in a fair range and has a low viscosity. Chemically, doa is an ester of adipic acid, indicating that adipic acid has been reacted with an alcoholic compound to form DOA. Its formula is c 22 h 42 o 4 sub>.
