Benzoic acid is especially used in the production of plasticizers, resins, coatings and as an intermediate in chemical synthesis.
Its chemical formula is C6H5COOH, which explains its aromatic carboxylic acid structure.
Benzoic acid has low solubility in water but dissolves more easily in organic solvents.
Benzoic acid is not highly flammable but may burn under certain conditions, so proper handling is required.
Store in sealed containers in a dry, well-ventilated space, free from moisture and impurities.
