Questions

  1. Why are the melting points of caffeic acid 8220290010 (listed as 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid) and caffeic acid C0625 so different? They are both listed as >98% (HPLC).

    1 answer
    1. The determination of melting point largely depends on testing conditions, such as equipment type, the rate of temperature increase, the diameter of the glass tube, etc. These products are not tested for melting point. These products are from different brands and melting point values are taken from different literature sources.
