Acid Functional Polymers & Salts
Acidic groups are often used to convey solubility to polymers in aqueous media. These versatile moieties can be converted to a wide range of alternative functional groups. Acid groups can be utilized as catalysts for chemical reactions. Additionally they are employed in polymers as the functional group which enables improved adhesion to a variety of substrates through hydrogen bonding or metal chelation.
