Glycolic Acid High Purity, 70% Solution

PureTech Scientific Glycolic Acid is the smallest alpha hydroxycarboxylic acid, a factor that contributes to its high reactivity and versatility in various applications. Glycolic Acid possesses dual functional groups: hydroxyl (OH) and carboxyl (COOH), allowing it to engage in a range of chemical reactions critical for both industrial and medical uses.

In its High Purity, 70% Solution form, PureTech Scientific Glycolic Acid significantly surpasses the Technical Grade in terms of purity. This enhancement is achieved by reducing trace organic and inorganic impurities to minimal levels, making it especially suitable for sensitive applications. Consequently, the High Purity grade is frequently utilized within the medical sector as a precursor in the synthesis of resorbable polymer sutures, which require stringent purity standards to ensure patient safety and biodegradability. The industrial sector also benefits from this high-purity product in processes where even minimal impurities could compromise product efficacy or safety. This grade's ability to meet rigorous quality demands underscores its importance across multiple industries.
