It is used as intermediate of medicine and spice industry, liquid crystal raw material.
1. Food Industry: Due to its antioxidant properties, it is used as a food preservative, helping to prevent spoilage and extend shelf life.
2. Pharmaceuticals: p-Coumaric acid has been studied for its potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. It can be used to develop dietary supplements and functional foods.
3. Cosmetics: Due to its antioxidant properties, it is sometimes added to cosmetic formulas to help protect the skin from oxidative stress and improve skin health.
4. Agriculture: It can be used to formulate natural herbicides and pesticides as it has been shown to have certain herbicidal activity.
5. Biotechnology: p-Coumaric acid is a precursor for the biosynthesis of various natural compounds, including flavonoids and lignin, and is therefore of great significance in research related to plant biology and bioengineering.
6. Material Science: Its potential use in the development of biodegradable materials and polymers is being explored.
It is soluble in water and ethanol.
Stored at a dry, shady, ventilated place.
1. Container: Store in a sealed container to prevent moisture absorption and contamination.
2. Temperature: Store in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. For long-term storage, the recommended temperature range is generally 2-8°C (refrigerated).
3. Humidity: Make sure the humidity in the storage area is low, as high humidity can affect the stability of the compound.
4. Inert Gas: If possible, store it under an inert gas (such as nitrogen) to minimize oxidation.
5. Label: Clearly label containers with name, concentration, and storage date for easy identification.

4-Hydroxycinnamic acid (p-coumaric acid) is generally considered to be of low toxicity and is not considered a hazardous substance under normal handling conditions. However, like many compounds, it may pose some risks:
1. Irritation: May cause mild irritation to skin, eyes and respiratory tract upon contact or inhalation. It is recommended to take appropriate safety precautions when handling, such as wearing gloves and goggles.
2. Allergic reactions: Some people may experience allergic reactions to phenolic compounds, including p-coumaric acid.
3. Environmental Impact: Although it is biodegradable, excessive amounts released into the environment may affect the local ecosystem.
1. Packaging: Use appropriate packaging to prevent moisture and chemicals. Make sure the container is sealed to prevent leakage.
2. Label: Clearly label the contents of the packaging, including the chemical name and any relevant hazard information. If necessary, include handling instructions.
3. Temperature Control: If your compound is temperature sensitive, make sure it is shipped in a temperature-controlled environment to prevent degradation.
4. Avoid contamination: Keep substances away from incompatible materials and ensure they do not come into contact with moisture or other contaminants during transport.
5. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Personnel responsible for transportation should wear appropriate PPE, such as gloves and goggles, to minimize exposure.
6. Emergency Procedures: In case of leakage or accident during transportation, you should be aware of the emergency procedures. Prepare a leak kit and first aid supplies.
7. Regulatory Compliance: Ensure compliance with local, national and international regulations regarding the transportation of chemical substances.
