Specifications | MSDS | Literature and Reviews

1,2,3,4-Butanetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BDA, CAS number 4534-73-0) has two succinic anhydrides bridged by a carbon-carbon single bond. 1,2,3,4-Butanetetracarboxylic dianhydride readily reacts with amines and hydroxyls forming imides and esters. BDA is a well-known anti-wrinkle reagent to treat cotton fabrics, as its ability to crosslink the cellulose (through esterification). The breaking and tearing strengths of the fabrics are improved via crosslinking modification. Super absorbance hydrogels can be synthesized from polysaccharide and 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic dianhydride. The products are applied in water purification and agricultural water retention.

High ionic conductive ionomer can be prepared from BDA and diol. The ionomer is promising to use as solid polymer electrolytes.
