Borax Pentahydrate
Borax Pentahydrate (sodium tetraborate pentahydrate) is an inorganic compound and a hydrated form of borax. It typically appears as colorless to white crystalline granules or powder. This compound contains five molecules of water of crystallization per formula unit, distinguishing it from other borax hydrates such as the decahydrate form. Borax Pentahydrate is widely used across industries including detergents, glass production, agriculture, and cosmetics, valued for its buffering capacity, emulsification, and antiseptic properties. It is soluble in water and exhibits alkaline properties in aqueous solution.
Caustic Soda Micropearls
Caustic Soda Micropearls are small, spherical, solid particles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) produced through specialized prilling or pelletizing techniques. They offer excellent flowability, high purity, and uniform size distribution, making them ideal for precise dosing and handling in industrial and chemical processes. The micropearls form is preferred in applications where dust control, ease of transport, and controlled dissolution rates are critical. Caustic Soda Micropearls exhibit strong alkalinity, are highly soluble in water with an exothermic reaction, and are widely used across many sectors including chemical manufacturing, water treatment, pulp and paper processing, and detergent production.
Citric Acid Monohydrate
Citric Acid Monohydrate is a white, crystalline powder or granule form of citric acid containing one molecule of water per molecule of acid. It is a natural organic acid commonly derived from citrus fruits or produced by fermentation processes. Citric Acid Monohydrate is widely used as an acidulant, preservative, and chelating agent in various industries. Compared to the anhydrous form, it has a slightly lower acid concentration due to the water molecule but offers excellent solubility and stability. It is prized for its sour flavor, buffering capacity, and ability to bind metal ions, making it indispensable in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications.
Diethanolamine
Diethanolamine is a colorless to pale yellow, viscous liquid with a mild ammonia-like odor. It is a secondary amine and diol, widely used in various industrial, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. DEA is highly soluble in water and many organic solvents. It acts as an intermediate in the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, corrosion inhibitors, and pharmaceuticals. It is valued for its alkalinity, emulsifying properties, and ability to form stable complexes with fatty acids.
Glacial Acetic Acid Food Grade
Glacial Acetic Acid Food Grade is a clear, colorless liquid organic compound with a pungent vinegar-like odor. It is a high-purity form of acetic acid specifically produced and processed for safe use in food applications. As the main component of vinegar (after dilution), it serves as a critical flavoring agent, pH adjuster, and preservative in the food industry. Food-grade acetic acid typically has a concentration of 80-100% (glacial acetic acid) or is diluted to lower concentrations (4-20%) for specific applications.
Hydrofluoric Acid HF
Hydrofluoric Acid HF is a highly corrosive aqueous solution of hydrogen fluoride gas dissolved in water. It is a colorless to pale yellow fuming liquid with a strong pungent odor. Unlike other mineral acids, HF is a weak acid chemically but uniquely reactive due to its ability to dissolve silica and glass, and penetrate tissues deeply. This makes it invaluable in numerous industrial, laboratory, and specialized applications but also highly hazardous.
Indion Cation Resin
Indion Cation Resin is a synthetic ion exchange resin designed primarily for the removal of positively charged ions (cations) from water and various liquid streams. Typically composed of a sulfonated polystyrene-divinylbenzene (PS-DVB) copolymer, this resin features a highly porous bead structure with functional groups that exchange hydrogen or sodium ions for calcium, magnesium, iron, and other metallic cations. Available in different forms (strong acid cation, weak acid cation), Indion Cation Resin is widely used in water treatment, industrial processes, and purification systems.
Magnesium Carbonate Light
Magnesium Carbonate Light is a fine, white, odorless powder primarily composed of magnesium carbonate (MgCO₃). It is characterized by its light texture and high purity. This mineral compound is widely used across various industries due to its excellent absorption properties, mild alkalinity, and non-toxic nature. Magnesium Carbonate Light is commonly employed as an antacid, drying agent, filler, and flow aid in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications.
