Emerox® Azelaic Acid is a 9-carbon, straight-chain di basic acid that equals or outperforms sebacic acid in virtually all derivative forms. The only big difference is price. Sebacic acid has historically cost 20-500/lb. more than azelaic. Today, that difference is closer to 700/lb. Sebacic acid does give you one more carbon atom. But can you afford today to pass up a savings of $30,000 for each 40,000 lb. carload for an extra atom you don't even need? If you pale at the thought, call us at 513/762-6199 or rush off the coupon.
