2,6-Naphthalene Dicarboxylic Acid is a named chemical substance, salt or derivative supplied within an identified composition specification.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
2,6-Naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (CAS 1141-38-4) is an organic compound with the formula C10H6(CO2H)2. It is colorless solid and one of several isomers of naphthalenedicarboxylic acid. It is a precursor to the high performance polyester polyethylene naphthalate (PEN, poly (ethylene-2, 6-naphthalene dicarboxylate)).
The full chemical identity, positional or stereochemical form, assay and carrier define the supplied material. An acid, its salt and a formulated downstream product should not be treated as identical transactions.
The commercial boundary
