Description

Methane Sulfonic Acid 70%
Methane Sulfonic Acid 70% is an excellent catalyst for esterification, alkylation and condensation reactions. Methane Sulfonic Acid yields purer and lower color esters than both sulfuric and para-toluene sulfonic acids. Unlike titanate catalysts, Methane Sulfonic Acid can be used at low temperatures.

Anhydrous Methane Sulfonic Acid (AMSA)
Anhydrous Methane Sulfonic Acid is particularly well suited for pharmaceutical applications and as a catalyst for aromatic alkylation, due to the strong acidity of AMSA, the low toxicity of the sulfonate anion and the high solubility of MSA salts.
