Product Short Description:
FUMARIC ACID FOR SYNTHESIS
Product Description:
Fumaric acid is currently produced by isomerization of maleic acid, which is produced from maleic anhydride. Maleic anhydride, in turn, is industrially produced by catalytic oxidation of suitable hydrocarbons in the gas phase. ... The catalysts applied in this process are based on vanadium and phosphorus oxides.
