Dimer and Trimer Acids
BASF is one of the largest producers and Products at a glance

commercial suppliers of dimer and trimer acids.
• Empol Dimer and Trimer Acids
These high carbon number di- and polycarboxylic
acids are useful polymer building blocks because
they are able to impart the highly desirable
properties of flexibility, elasticity and high impact
strength to many polymer products. Examples
include polyamides, polyesters, epoxy resins and
polyurethanes. Empol® dimer and trimer acids are
also of value as raw materials for many non-polymer
industrial chemicals such as synthetic lubricants,
fuel additives and corrosion inhibitors.
