Maleic anhydride is an organic compound with the formula C2H2(CO)2O. It is the acid anhydride of maleic acid. It is a colorless or white solid with an acrid odor. It is produced industrially on a large scale for applications in coatings and polymers.
Maleic anhydride is produced by vapor-phase oxidation of n-butane. The overall process converts the methyl groups to carboxylate and dehydrogenates the backbone. The selectivity of the process reflects the robustness of maleic anhydride, with its conjugated double-bond system. Traditionally maleic anhydride was produced by the oxidation of benzene or other aromatic compounds. As of 2006, only a few smaller plants continue to use benzene.
In both cases, benzene and butane are fed into a stream of hot air, and the mixture is passed through a catalyst bed at high temperature. The ratio of air to hydrocarbon is controlled to prevent the mixture from igniting. Vanadium pentoxide and molybdenum trioxide are the catalysts used for the benzene route, whereas vanadium phosphate is used for the butane route:
C4H10 + 3.5 O2 → C4H2O3 + 4 H2O H = −1236 kJ/mol
The main competing process entails full combustion of the butane, a conversion that is twice as exothermic as the partial oxidation.
The traditional method using benzene became uneconomical due to the high and still rising benzene prices and by complying with the regulations of benzene emissions. In addition, in the production of maleic anhydride (4 C-atoms) a third of the original carbon atoms is lost as carbon dioxide when using benzene (6 carbon atoms). The modern catalytic processes start from a 4-carbon molecule and only attaches oxygen and removes water; the 4-C-base body of the molecule remains intact. Overall, the newer method is therefore more material efficient.

1.It is mainly used to produce unsaturated polyester resin, alkyd resin, pesticide malathion, high
efficiency and low toxicity pesticide 4049 and long-acting iodamine. It is also a coating, maleic rosin, polymaleic anhydride, maleic anhydride styrene copolymer. It is also an organic chemical raw material for the production of ink additives, papermaking additives, plasticizers, tartaric acid, fumaric acid, tetrahydrofuran, etc. It can be used as curing agent of epoxy resin, and can be used to manufacture succinic acid, succinic anhydride, etc. in organic synthesis. It is used in the pharmaceutical industry to manufacture long-acting sulfonamides and other drugs. In the food
industry, it is used to manufacture sour agents, such as malic acid and tartaric acid.
2.Used in organic synthesis, synthetic fiber intermediate. Used as an analytical reagent, such as
a reagent for the determination of organic compounds with conjugated double bonds.
3.It can be used as curing agent for epoxy resin. The reference dosage is 19 ~ 27 parts by mass.
It is not suitable to be used alone because of its high reactivity and volatility. It is mostly mixed with other anhydride or toughening agent (such as pyromellitic dianhydride). Curing conditions:160 ~ 200 ºC / (2 ~ 4h). It can also be used to graft with EVA and PE blends to prepare new polymers of hot melt adhesive and improve adhesion. It can also be used as a modified monomer for the production of acrylate emulsion and grafting with SBS.
