Adipic acid is a white crystalline solid and one of the most important monomers in the polymer industry. Adipic acid is most commonly used alongside hexamethylenediamine to produce nylon 6-6, although it is also used to manufacture other polymers such as polyurethanes. It is also often used as a dibasic carboxylic acid in the food industry for buffering and neutralising purposes. Its hygroscopic properties mean it is useful for preparing baking powder and soft drink powders.
