Use

5-hydrox­­ymethyl­­fur­­fur­al CAS 67-47-0(HMF) is the key inter­me­di­ate of 2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid CAS 3238-40-2 which a large poten­tial as a replace­ment for tereph­thal­ic acid, a wide­ly used com­po­nent in var­i­ous poly­esters, such as poly­eth­yl­ene tereph­tha­late (PET) and poly­butylenetereph­tha­late (PBT). PET has a mar­ket size approach­ing 4 bil­lion lb/​yr, and PBT is almost a bil­lion lb/​yr. The mar­ket val­ue of PET poly­mers varies depend­ing on the appli­ca­tion, but is in the range of $1.00 – 3.00/lb for uses as films and ther­mo­plas­tic engi­neer­ing poly­mers. The ver­sa­til­i­ty of FDCA is also seen in the num­ber of deriv­a­tives avail­able via rel­a­tive­ly sim­ple chem­i­cal trans­for­ma­tions. Selec­tive reduc­tion can lead to par­tial­ly hydro­genat­ed products,such as 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran, and ful­ly hydro­genat­ed mate­ri­als, such as 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran. Both of these lat­ter mate­ri­als can serve as alco­hol com­po­nents in the pro­duc­tion of new poly­ester, and their com­bi­na­tion with FDCA would lead to a new fam­i­ly of com­plete­ly bio­­mass-derived prod­ucts. Exten­sion of these con­cepts to the pro­duc­tion of new nylons, either through reac­tion of FDCA with diamines, or through the con­ver­sion of FDCA to 2,5-bis(aminomethyl)tetrahydrofuran could address a mar­ket of almost 9 bil­lion lb/​yr, with prod­uct val­ues between $0.85 and 2.20/lb, depend­ing on the appli­ca­tion. FDCA can also serve as a start­ing mate­r­i­al for the pro­duc­tion of suc­cinic acid, whose util­i­ty is elsewhere.
