Description

Acrolein is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of acrylic acid and methionine. It finds application in Skraup synthesis. It is also used in drilling waters, as well as a scavenger for hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans. Further, it is used in the preparation of monomeric and dimeric beta-hydroxypropionaldehyde in a hydration reaction. In addition, it serves as an adhesives, sealants, paints and coatings. It is used as a fixative in preparation of biological specimens for electron microscopy. In analytical chemistry, it is used to check the presence of glycerin or fats.
