Acetic Acid Food Grade
Original price was: KSh10,000.00.KSh9,000.00Current price is: KSh9,000.00.Acetic acid food grade is an organic acid with the chemical formula CH3COOH, also known as ethanoic acid. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent, sour taste and a distinctive vinegar-like odor. Acetic acid is an important industrial chemical used in the production of various products, including solvents, plastics, textiles, and food additives. It is also the main component of vinegar, which is commonly used as a condiment and preservative in cooking and food preparation.
Adipic Acid
KSh0.01Adipic acid, chemically known as hexanedioic acid (C₆H₁₀O₄), is a key industrial organic compound recognized for its role in polymer production. Primarily, it serves as a crucial precursor in the manufacture of nylon 6,6, where it reacts with hexamethylenediamine to form this durable synthetic polymer, widely used in textiles, automotive components, and industrial plastics. Beyond nylon, adipic acid is integral to producing polyurethane foams, found in mattresses, insulation, and car seats, due to its ability to enhance material flexibility and strength. It also finds applications as a food additive (E355), where it acts as an acidity regulator in gelatin desserts, beverages, and baked goods. Additionally, adipic acid derivatives are used in plasticizers for PVC products, synthetic lubricants, adhesives, and even cosmetics. While traditionally derived from petroleum-based processes, growing interest in sustainable alternatives has spurred research into bio-based production methods using renewable resources. Overall, adipic acid’s versatility makes it indispensable across multiple industries, from manufacturing to food technology
Ascorbic acid
Original price was: KSh23,500.00.KSh22,500.00Current price is: KSh22,500.00.Ascorbic acid, also known as vitamin C, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in various physiological processes in the human body. It is an essential nutrient that cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained through dietary sources or supplements. Ascorbic acid acts as a powerful antioxidant, protecting cells and tissues from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. It also plays a critical role in the production of collagen, which is important for the health of skin, bones, and other connective tissues. Additionally, ascorbic acid is involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and the metabolism of proteins and fats. Deficiency in ascorbic acid can lead to a range of health problems, including scurvy, a condition characterized by fatigue, weakness, and bleeding gums.
Calcium Carbonate (uncoated)
Original price was: KSh4,900.00.KSh4,800.00Current price is: KSh4,800.00.Calcium Carbonate (uncoated) refers to a natural mineral substance that is composed of calcium carbonate without any additional coatings or surface treatments. It is a white, powdery material that is commonly used in various industrial applications, including the manufacture of paper, paints, plastics, and rubber products, as well as in construction, agriculture, and the food and pharmaceutical industries. Uncoated calcium carbonate is typically mined from natural deposits of limestone or chalk and is often ground into fine particles to achieve the desired particle size and purity for specific applications
Calcium Hydroxide(Hydrated lime)
Original price was: KSh3,500.00.KSh3,000.00Current price is: KSh3,000.00.Calcium Hydroxide(Hydrated lime) , also known as hydrated lime, is a chemical compound with the formula Ca(OH)2. It is a white, odorless, and alkaline substance that is produced by adding water to calcium oxide, also known as quicklime. The resulting reaction produces calcium hydroxide and releases a large amount of heat.
Hydrated lime is commonly used in various industrial applications such as water treatment, construction, agriculture, and food processing. It is also used as a pH regulator and a flocculant in wastewater treatment plants. Additionally, it is used in the production of cement, as a soil stabilizer, and in the manufacture of chemicals such as calcium stearate and calcium hypochlorite.
In summary, calcium hydroxide, or hydrated lime, is a chemical compound with various industrial applications, produced by adding water to calcium oxide.
Citric Acid Anhydrous
Original price was: KSh9,000.00.KSh7,800.00Current price is: KSh7,800.00.Citric Acid Anhydrous is a weak organic acid that occurs naturally in citrus fruits such as lemons, limes, oranges, and grapefruits. It is a tricarboxylic acid with the chemical formula C6H8O7 and is commonly used as a food additive, preservative, and flavoring agent. Citric acid is also used in the pharmaceutical industry, as a chelating agent in cleaning and personal care products, and in the production of cosmetics and detergents. It is a white crystalline powder with a sour taste and is soluble in water.
