Application

Methanesulfonic acid may be used:As a catalyst to produce linear alkylbenzenes by the addition reaction between long-chain olefins and benzene.To prepare polyaniline (PANI)/graphene composites with enhanced thermal and electrical properties.As a catalyst for the transformation of glucose/xylose mixtures to levulinic acid and furfural.

General description

Methanesulfonic acid (MSA) is a strong organic acid. The chemical oxidation of dimetyl sulfide in the atmosphere leads to the formation of MSA in large quantities. MSA undergoes biodegradation by forming CO₂ and sulphate. It is considered a green acid as it is less toxic and corrosive in comparison to mineral acids.1 The aqueous MSA solution has been considered a model electrolyte for electrochemical processes.
