Versatic acids play a crucial role in creating materials with excellent hydrolytic stability and resistance to heat and to attack from a wide variety of chemical agents. Versatic acids have excellent solubility in non-polar compounds such as solvents, organic polymers and plastics, allowing them to be used in a wide variety of systems.
These properties originate from the highly branched alkyl groups that contain a tertiary alpha carbon atom. The improved performance is especially clear compared to linear and secondary acids.
