MAIN APPLICATION:
Succinic acid is a kind of basic raw material in organic chemical industry. It is mainly used in food,pharmaceutical and chemical industry. It is used as acids for food industry, its sodium salt is a fine improvement agent of food flavor. Compared with glutamic acid and inosinic acid, its flavor is more tasty. In chemical industry, it is extensively used as PH adjuster for electroplate of aluminum products, and as plasticide, as well as in analyse reagent. In pharmaceutical industry, it is used in synthesis of diuretic,sedative,expectorant,vitamin,sulphanilamide, etc. It's also widely used as growth hormone of plant.
