Usage
Levulinic acid can react as either a carboxylic acid or a ketone. Through esterification, halogenation, hydrogenation, oxidative dehydrogenation, condensation, etc., it can produce various products, including resins, medicines, fragrances, solvents, coatings and inks, Rubber and plastic additives, lubricant additives, surfactants, etc.
Bisphenolic acid produced from levulinic acid can be used to produce water-soluble resin, which is used in the paper industry to produce filter paper. Levulinic acid is also an intermediate for pesticides and dyes.
