Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is an organic acid used in a variety of applications, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and biotechnology. It is a colorless, volatile liquid with a strong odor and is highly soluble in water. TFA is a strong acid, with a pKa of 0.25, and is used as a reagent in organic synthesis. It is also used as a solvent for the extraction of organic compounds, and as a catalyst in the production of polymers. TFA is produced by the reaction of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid with acetic anhydride. It is also produced as a by-product of the production of fluorocarbons. The global market for TFA is expected to grow due to its increasing use in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Some companies in the TFA market include Solvay, BASF, Honeywell, and Merck.
