Dimethyl Succinate is one of the multitudes of useful, high-quality chemical products
Dimethyl succinate is a colorless liquid.
Dimethyl succinate is a fatty acid methyl ester.
The organic molecule contains two ester groups.
This ester is a versatile chemical intermediate.
A colorless liquid, diethyl succinate is formed of Dimethyl succinate and ethanol.

Dimethyl Succinate is used as a flavoring agent for food and beverages.
Dimethyl Succinate is used to manufacture polyurethanes, paints and coatings, adhesives, sealants, artificial leathers, cosmetics and personal care products, biodegradable plastics, nylons, industrial lubricants, phthalate-free plasticizers, and dyes & pigments.
In the pharmaceutical industry, Dimethyl Succinate is used in the preparation of active calcium succinate, as a starting material for active pharmaceutical ingredients.
Dimethyl succinate is a normal constituent of almost all plant and animal tissues.
Dimethyl succinate is the dehydration product of the acid.
Dimethyl succinate was first obtained as the distillate from amber for which it is named.
Dimethyl Succinate occurs in beet, brocoli, rhubarb, sauerkraut, cheese, meat, molasses, eggs, peat, coal, fruits.
Dimethyl Succinate is formed by the chemical and biochemical oxidation of fats, by alcoholic fermentation of sugar, and in numerous catalyzed oxidation processes.
Dimethyl succinate is also a major byproduct in the manufacture of adipic acid.
Dimethyl succinate, a dicarboxylic acid, is a relatively new nonhygroscopic product approved for food uses.
Dimethyl Succinates apparent taste characteristics in foods appear to be very similar to the other acidulants of this type, although pure aqueous solutions tend to have a slightly bitter taste.
Dimethyl succinate is a carboxylic acid used in food (as an acidulant), pharmaceutical (as an excipient), personal care (soaps) and chemical (pesticides, dyes and lacquers) industries.
Bio-based Dimethyl succinate is seen as an important platform chemical for the production of biodegradable plastics and as a substitute of several chemicals (such as adipic acid).
Dimethyl succinate is widely used in the food industry as a chelating agent and as a pH adjuster.
Studies conducted within the food industry show Dimethyl succinate has anti-oxidant properties: even though this does not imply the same will be exerted when the substance is applied topically, it gives an indication that suitable tests could be carried out to understand whether Dimethyl succinate maintain such effect once formulated in a cosmetic product.
Dimethyl succinate is also used as an intermediate to manufacture several chemicals, amongst which raw materials for the cosmetic and personal-care industry, e.g. emollients, surfactants and emulsifiers.
Dimethyl succinate is widely use as organic intermediates for the pharmaceutical, engineering plastics, resins, for the synthesis of sedatives, contraceptives and cancer drugs in the pharmaceutical industry, in the chemical industry for the production of dyes, alkyd resin, glass fiber reinforced plastics, ion exchange resins and pesticides.
