Application

ODPA is used in thermal paper for receipts, adding machines and tickets. The acid serves as a matrix. When heat liquefies the acid, a reaction between the dye and the acid occurs. This reaction causes the colour of the thermal paper to change. It acts as surfactant, emulsifier, dispersant and chelating agent.  It is utilized for proteomics research. In addition to this, it is used to prepare modified mesoporous magnetic nano particles through Lewis acid/base interaction. ODPA is mostly known for its ability to form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on a large variety of substrates. It has demonstrated potential for deterring bacterial attachment to titanium.
