Brassylic acid is a high-purity crystalline solid and a straight-chain tridecanedioic acid derivative, functioning as a critical long-chain dicarboxylic acid intermediate in fine chemical manufacturing. This specialized 1,11-undecanedicarboxylic acid, often utilized as a tridecane-1,13-dioic acid precursor, plays a vital role in the synthesis of ethylene brassylate and other macrocyclic musks due to its stable carbon chain structure. As an essential n-tridecanedioic acid component, it is typically applied in the production of high-performance engineering plastics, specifically Nylon 1313, and specialty lubricants requiring high thermal stability and chemical resistance. We provide this organic intermediate with competitive factory pricing to facilitate large-scale synthesis, offering customized specifications regarding particle size and purity levels to meet stringent industrial standards. Each delivery is supported by comprehensive technical files, including MSDS, TDS, COA, and is prepared for bulk supply to meet the demands of the global fragrance and polymer markets.

Quality Assurance
Our Brassylic Acid is produced via high-vacuum distillation and recrystallization processes to ensure superior purity and color stability. We utilize GC (Gas Chromatography) to monitor the dicarboxylic acid chain distribution and titration methods to verify the acid value. Adhering to ISO 9001 quality management systems, our facility ensures that every batch meets the low-impurity requirements necessary for delicate fragrance synthesis and high-performance polymer applications.
