What is a suitable translation for single carboxylic acids? What about the whole sentence?

Illustrative carboxylic acids include acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid. The preferred carboxylic acid starting material is acetic acid. Most preferably, the carboxylic acid starting materials are purified single carboxylic acids, although mixtures of such acids could be employed if desired. What is a suitable translation for \"single carboxylic acids\"? I’m not sure about the blue part; could some kind person help translate it? Thank you

Single carboxylic acids: It is highly preferable to use purified single carboxylic acids as the starting materials for these carboxylic acids; however, mixtures of such acids can also be used if that is desired. Although mixtures of carboxylic acids might be used, it’s better to use purified single carboxylic acids as starting materials if that is what you want.

Do you mean by monocarboxylic acid an acid with a single carboxyl group? However, by considering the context around it, I ultimately felt that translating it as “a single carboxylic acid” was more appropriate.

Third floor supported. For example, acetic acid is the most widely used raw material among carboxylic acids. The carboxylic acid mixture contains acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid; the preferred approach is to purify the mixture using it as a raw material to obtain individual carboxylic acid products. If necessary, these substances can also be used to produce polymers.

Illustrative carboxylic acids include acetic acid, propionic (is the spelling incorrect? ) acid and butyric acid. The preferred carboxylic acid starting material is acetic acid. Most preferably, the carboxylic acid starting materials are purified single carboxylic acids, although mixtures of such acids could be employed if desired. For example, carboxylic acids include acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid. Acetic acid is the preferred carboxylic acid starting material. It is best to use pure of the same carboxylic acid as the starting material for its production, but a mixture of carboxylic acids can also be used if necessary.
