TGA
Odor: characteristic
Use: Thioglycolic acid forms powerful complexes with metals that gives it specific characteristics sought after for the assisted recovery of ore as well as for cleaning and corrosion inhibition.
BRUNO BOCK
Thioglycolic Acid
Odor: characteristic
Use: TGA's unique reducing properties make it an ideal candidate for a wide variety of chemical reactions including addition, elimination, or cyclization reactions. TGA's thiol group (-SH) will react in the presence of bases, acids, ketone groups or organic halogens. In the presence of alcohols or amines, the carboxylic group will react preferentially.

Formulations/Preparations:
•in widely avail commercial cold-wave prepn for waving hair there is as a rule no free thioglycolic acid. instead these prepn contain ammonium, sodium, or calcium thioglycolate at mildly alkaline ph, commonly ph 9.5 & are far less dangerous to the eye than is free thioglycolic acid. •commercial forms of mercaptoacetic acid are the 99% acid and the 80% acid. •available commercially as an anhydrous powder or an aqueous solution containing 70-80% active matter. •thioglycolic acid is marketed as pure product or at 80-85% wt% aqueous solution.
