General description

Iminodiacetic acid is a versatile chelating agent widely used in metal extraction and waste water treatment.[1]

Application

Iminodiacetic acid can be used:
  • In the preparation of iminodiacetic acid (IDA)-type adsorbent for protein purification.[2]
  • As a catalyst along with iron (FeCl3) complexes for methyl methacrylate (MMA) polymerization.[3]
  • In the preparation of chelating resins with glycidyl methacrylate for the selective removal and recovery of metal ions from industrial waste water.[4]
  • As a reagent for the preparation of pinene-derived iminodiacetic acid (PIDA), which is in turn used as a ligand for the synthesis of diastereoselective oxiranyl C(sp3) boronates from the corresponding olefins.[5]
  • In the surface functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) which is further utilized as a sorbent for the separation of heavy metal ions.[6]

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
