Usage

General Description

2-(2-hydroxy-1-oxopropoxy)propionic acid, also known as ibuprofen, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain, reduce fever, and decrease inflammation. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Ibuprofen is commonly used to treat conditions such as headache, muscle aches, arthritis, menstrual cramps, and minor injuries. It is available over-the-counter and in prescription strength, and is commonly taken orally in the form of tablets, capsules, or liquid. Ibuprofen is generally well-tolerated, but long-term use or high doses can increase the risk of certain side effects, including stomach bleeding, kidney damage, and cardiovascular problems. It is important to use ibuprofen as directed and consult a healthcare professional before taking it, especially if there are any pre-existing health conditions or if other medications are being used.

Furandicarbonyl-polyhydroxy acid ester plasticizer and application thereof

The invention discloses a furandicarbonyl-polyhydroxy acid ester plasticizer and an application thereof. The furandicarbonyl-polyhydroxy acid ester plasticizer is composed of a furandicarboxylic acidpart, a polyester part formed by oligomerizing hydroxy acid, and a terminal-terminated alcohol part. The plasticizer can be applied to polymer plasticization, and especially shows good compatibility and plasticization efficiency in PVC. Raw materials required by the plasticizer can be derived from biomass, so that the plasticizer has good renewability.

PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING A CYCLIC DIESTER OF AN A-HYDROXY ACID

Process for manufacturing a cyclic diester of an α-hydroxy acid comprising the following steps: a substantially anhydrous salt of a divalent metal and of an α-hydroxy acid is mixed with a strong acid, the pKa of which is less than that of the α-hydroxy acid and the salt of which with the divalent metal is hygroscopic; andthe mixture is left to react for a sufficient time in order to obtain the cyclic diester dispersed in the hygroscopic salt.
