Dodecanedioic acid (DDDA) is a pure C12 dibasic acid that is mainly used in antiseptics, painting materials, top-grade coatings, corrosion inhibitors, surfactants and engineering plastics.
Dodecanedioic acid is available in a white, flaky form and has a long shelf life of approximately 3 years, depending on the storage methods.
There are two different ways to make DDDA: synthetic production and biotech production.
Dodecanedioic Acid is mainly used in top-grade powder coatings and paint, adhesives, pulp & paper, chemical and industrial facilities, surfactants, antiseptics.
In combination with Amine, DDDA is used to produce engineering plastics polyamide resins wich is a high performance nylon 6-12, adhesives, diester synthetic lubricants, fibers, curatives, plasticizers, polyester coatings, epoxy resins.
When used Dodecanedioic acid in a mixture with other dibasic acids DDDA is especially effective as a ferrous corrosion inhibitor for metalworking fluids, engine coolants, metal cleaners, aqueous hydraulic fluids.
DDDA can also be used as a complexing agent for lithium complex grease which will increase dropping point and improve mechanical stability.

Common Applications for DDDA:
Dodecanedioic acid is water soluble and has a metabolic pathway intermediate that is similar to lipids and carbohydrates.
This is why DDDA is currently being tested as a possible medication for type diabetes 2 patients.
Early research shows that DDDA can help patients maintain normal blood sugar and energy levels without raising blood glucose.
When discussing DDDA, however, Dodecanedioic acid almost always refers to industrial use.

Below are some of the most common applications for DDDA:
-High performance nylon 6, 12
-Adhesives
-Molding resins
-Powder coatings
-Fibers
-Plasticizers
-Epoxy resins
-Polyester coatings
-Polyamide resins
-Corrosion inhibitors
-Corrosion inhibitors (mixed with other dibasic acids)

Dodecanedioic acid (DDA) is highly useful to the chemical industry as a versatile precursor for producing the polyamide nylon-6,12, which is used for many technical applications, such as heat and chemical-resistant sheaths.
However, DDA synthesis has several drawbacks, such as high energy input and cost-intensive removal of by-products.
Therefore, alternative bio-based production routes are required due to increasing industrial demand for green chemicals and renewable products.
Candida tropicalis converts petrochemical-based n-dodecanes to the corresponding dicarboxylic acids by targeted functionalization.
To increase sustainability of the DDA production process, we tested dodecanoic acid methyl ester, which can be easily obtained from transesterification of coconut oil, in whole-cell biotransformation by C. tropicalis.
By modifying selected process parameters, a final DDA concentration of 66 g/L was achieved using a highly reliable, small-scale bioreactor system.
Crucial process development included a gradual pH shift, an optimized substrate feeding strategy, and monitoring the transcriptional profile.

Dodecanedioic acid Production:
DDDA is currently produced by both chemical and biological routes.

Chemical process of Dodecanedioic acid:
Dodecanedioic acid has traditionally been produced from butadiene using a multi-step chemical process.
Butadiene is first converted to cyclododecatriene through a cyclotrimerization process.

Cyclododecatriene is converted to dodecanedioic acid by hydrogenation to cyclododecane followed by air oxidation in the presence of boric acid at elevated temperatures to a mixture of the alcohol and the ketone.
In the final step, this mixture oxidized further by nitric acid.

DDA is used as a raw material for polyurethane resins, polyester resins, and polyamide resins, as well as a curing agent for acrylic powder paints.
When reacting with various alcohols and diamines, it produces polyester and polyamide resins with excellent performance, especially in hydrolytic resistance, flexibility, and heat stability.

Traditionally, DDDA is produced from butadiene using a chemical process.
First, the butadiene is converted into cyclododecatriene through a cyclotrimerization process.
The cyclododecatriene is then converted into dodecanedioic acid.
A newer approach is biotech production.
Using biotechnology, DDDA is created from paraffin wax.
This has made DDDA a cost-effective compound that is transforming the nylon market and showing up in products such as toothbrushes, cosmetics, adhesives, coatings, paints, automotive lubricants and corrosion inhibitors.

Dodecanedioic acid is a dicarboxylic acid which is water soluble and involves in a metabolic pathway intermediate to those of lipids and carbohydrates.
Dodecanedioid acid is an indicator of hepatic carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT IA) deficiency.
CPT IA deficiency is characterized by hypoketotic dicarboxylic aciduria with high urinary levels of dodecanedioic acid.
This C12 dicarboxylic aciduria suggests that carnitine palmitoyltransferase I may play a role in the uptake of long-chain dicarboxylic acids by mitochondria after their initial shortening by beta-oxidation in peroxisomes.

Dodecanedioic acid Biological process
Paraffin wax can be converted into DDDA with a special strain of Candida tropicalis yeast in a multi-step process.
Renewable plant-oil feedstocks sourced from switchgrass can also be used to produce DDDA.

Production of dodecanedioic acid (DDDA), a platform chemical used as raw material for various commodities and polymers, has been studied through a biological process.
This process was conducted by using a wild-type of Candida tropicalis which can be obtained easily from natural resources.
The aim of this research was to study the characteristics of DDDA production from methyl laurate through batch fermentation process.
Growth phase was carried out for 20 h, as the beginning of fermentation, then continued to conversion phase for 5 until 6 days.
Utilization of methyl laurate and production of DDDA were analysed using gas chromatography, which proved the ability of C.
tropicalis in assimilating methyl laurate to convert it become DDDA.
The highest value of cells yield (Yx/s) and DDDA yield (Yp/s) successfully obtained were 0.86 g cells/g methyl laurate and 0.20 g DDDA/g methyl laurate, respectively.
This study also showed the possibility of fermentation products accumulation as intermediate, or accumulation of DDDA inside the cells.
Thus, this study can be applied as an alternative in addition to the use of mutant microorganism in producing DDDA.

Dicarboxylic acids (DA) are formed from the ω-oxidation of monocarboxylic acids when the β-oxidation of free fatty acids is impaired.
Medium-chain DA have the peculiar characteristic of being water soluble due to the presence of two carboxylic terminal groups in the molecule.
Contrary to both long- and medium-chain triglycerides which are administered as emulsions, they can be given by a peripheral vein as inorganic salts.
DA are β-oxidized at level of both peroxisomes and mitochondria via carnitine-independent pathway.
The products of β-oxidation of odd-chain DA are acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, which cannot be oxidized further, are used in lipogenesis.
Moreover even-chain DA produce acetyl-CoA and succinyl-CoA, which is a gluconeogenetic precursor.
Azelaic acid (C9), does not show acute or chronic toxicity effects in animals but much of Dodecanedioic acid islost in urine (more than 50% of the given dose).
Sebacic acid (C10) is lost in urine to a smaller extent (about 12% of the administered dose) and its energy density (6.64 Kcal/g) is greater than that of C9 (4.97 Kcal/g).
Dodecanedioic acid (C12) seems to be the best candidate for parenteral nutrition, because Dodecanedioic acid is eliminated in the urine only in minimal amounts (3.90% of the given dose), Dodecanedioic acid is rapidly utilized by tissues, and Dodecanedioic acid has a high energy density (7.20 Kcal/g).

The linear dicarboxylic acid 1,12-dodecanedioic acid (DDDA) has a melting point of 128°C.
Dodecanedioic acid is virtually insoluble in water at room temperature.
The most important area of application of DDDA is for production of polyamides such as polyamide 612 or specialty polyamide.
DDDA is also used in the production of hotmelt adhesives and as a crosslinker for powder coatings.
DDDA finds application in corrosion inhibitors.
Dodecanedioic acid also serves a starting material in the fragrance industry.
