Malonic Acid used in ELECTROPLATING : 
Buffer in Nickel Plating:
Malonic acid is added to Watts electrolytes (used for nickel plating) to act as a buffer. This means it helps to maintain a stable pH in the plating solution, which is crucial for consistent and high-quality nickel deposition. 
pH Control:
Malonic acid has a buffer capacity within a specific pH range, typically around pH 2.0 to 3.0. This allows it to resist pH changes when acidic or basic substances are added to the plating solution. 
Polishing Agent:
Malonic acid can also be used as a component of polishing agents in electroplating. These polishing agents are used to create a smooth, uniform finish on the plated surfaces. 

Malonic acid is used as a precursor in polymers and polyester.
It is widely used in flavours as well as the fragrance industry.
It is used to control the acidity.
It is used in pharmaceutical products.
It is used as a cross-linking agent between potato starch and cornstarch to enhance its mechanical properties.
It is used in the preparation of barbituric salt.
It is used in Electroplating.
It is used to produce vitamin B1, vitamin B6, vitamin B2, and amino acids.
It is used in chemical synthesis as a building block
