3-Mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) is a versatile organic sulfur compound containing sulfhydryl and carboxyl groups in its molecule. This oily liquid is commonly derived from 3-chloropropionic acid or acrylonitrile and thiourea.
With a strong affinity of its sulfhydryl sulfur to gold, 3-mercaptopropionic acid is ideal for preparing hydrophilic gold nanoparticles. It serves as an intermediate in the production of the medicine fenalol and is utilized as a stabilizer in polyvinyl chloride.
Known for its exceptional stability, 3-mercaptopropionic acid can be used for transparent products, outperforming other stabilizers. It also functions as an antioxidant, catalyst, and biochemical reagent.
Moreover, this compound acts as a chain transfer agent in polycarboxylic acid superplasticizer, offering excellent stability and a prolonged shelf life.
