Glass scintillator is a material that constitutes of lithium silicate along with activated cerium. It has ability to detect high intensity gamma radiation, which is mostly radiated during the operation of nuclear power plant. The primary raw materials that are utilized during the production of glass scintillator include lithium silicate, cerium, and other chemicals.

Green or sustainable constructions typically adopt green building materials. These materials are popular due to their customer & eco-friendly properties. They have lesser operating & maintenance costs

Composites are made up of two different materials exhibiting different properties. In fact, the new material counteracts each of the earlier materials’ weaknesses and hence, is more useful than the individual components. The high performance composites value chain comprises raw material suppliers, manufacturers, distribution channels, and the end-users. The major materials used in the manufacturing of these composites are carbon fiber, boron, epoxy resin, and phenol.

In recent years, the world has been facing serious issues such as shortage of energy supply, climate change, and fluctuating energy costs. Energy conservation has become the name of the game, and this fact is not lost on organizations and institutions. It is widely accepted that as the prices of basic raw materials go on increasing, the costs of energy consumption are also going to increase. 

Welding products are consumables such as flux and fillers used in the welding process. The filler material is melted to join metal strongly and flux is widely used to generate gas protection around the weld pool to prevent hot metals from oxidation. These products join materials, such as metals or thermoplastics by fusion, unlike joining techniques such as brazing and soldering.

1,4 butanediol (BDO), also termed as 1,4-butylene glycol or butane-1,4-diol, is an organic compound that is primarily utilized in the production of plastics, fibers, and solvents. It is a versatile chemical intermediate that possesses excellent durability, strength and thermal stability.

Does the term ‘agar-agar gum’ ring a bell for you? If it does not, well, in the near future, it definitely will. It is a gelatinous polysaccharide used in food products that is well-known amongst the vegetarian and vegan crowd, as shifting lifestyle choices across the globe has prompted various substitutes for animal-based items such as gelatin in the food industry. Gelatin, once highly popular and a crucial ingredient for baked goods, desserts, confectionaries and similar items, is now considered by many as “non-vegetarian” since it is derived from animal sources. 

Ever wondered why milk and juice taste so fresh even days after manufacturing? How do medicines remain free from bacteria and germs even after days of packaging? How do manufacturers ensure that baby food, whose freshness and nutritional value is of the utmost importance, can stay safe for consumption for a long time? Well, for that, you have aseptic packaging to thank!

The rapid aging of the population in Asia is a major concern for the governments of the region, most notably in economies such as Japan, India, China, Singapore, and South Korea. Several research studies conducted in recent years project the elderly population of the region to reach nearly 1 billion by 2050

Essential oils have been used by many primitive cultures over thousands of years for various medicinal and health purposes. They are natural ingredients which are readily available in nature and can be extracted from flowers, barks, roots, leaf, fruits or fruit juices, vegetable or vegetable juices, herbs, spices etc.

Fatty methyl ester sulfonate (FMES) is the older kind of surfactant known from 1930s, and the production and application study was started in early 50s to the late 80s and early 90s. Fatty Methyl ester sulfonate is formulated from the starting material of vegetable oils or palm oil i.e. transesterification of oil to form fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) and subsequent sulfonation to form methyl ester sulfonate.

Fluoropolymer film is a high-performance polymer containing fluorine, carbon molecules and is extensively used in high temperature applications and extreme chemical conditions. The key application industries include packaging, construction, automotive, electronics, electrical, and aerospace. 

We all must have seen a corroded utensil in our kitchen, where we are compelled to discard it because we don’t have the proper solution to combat this situation. However, what we can do is avoid this situation in the first place. But how? The answer lies in a chemical compound known as glucaric acid, which is an organic product manufactured from glucose and nitric acid. Most of its known commercial value is from the use of its sodium salt in dishwasher detergents, but it also finds heavy usage as an anti-corrosion agent.

Imaging chemicals are among the most vital component of imaging industry. The importance of these chemicals has been realized and recognized over the past few years only. These products help in achieving greater efficiency by delivering clarity to the end results. Their demand is benefitted with rapidly advancing technologies and rising demand from the medical sector.

Palm oil is the most efficient seed crop in the world. India’s market is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for sustainable palm oil in edible & non-edible applications and rising hostility towards GMO based oils.

Palm oil is a widely consumed product in Iran, being majorly imported from Malaysia. The Iranian economy is currently recovering from the impact of Western sanctions, which had negatively influenced the supply & import of several essentials into the region.

Polyester can be completely recycled and can also be made from recycled plastics. PTA, MEG, PET chips, and flakes of recycled PET bottles are among the major raw materials utilized to produce polyester staple fiber. The polymer manufactured from the aforementioned raw materials is melt spun in order to rapidly cool it down.

Polymer gel is also referred to as hydrogel. It is a class of gel which consists a three dimensional cross linked polymer linkage. The gel is soft and is filled with a solvent which imparts various deformation properties in several sizes and shapes. The gel has the ability to shrink and expand up to 1000 times in terms of volume. The importance of polymer gel has been realized and recognized over the past few years only. These products help in achieving greater efficiency and higher production.

The polysilicon market is witnessing constant growth across the world owing to its high demand in the fabrication of electronic semiconductors and solar cells. Initially, polysilicon was majorly used in integrated circuits and other application in the electronic industry. With increasing installation of solar projects, the market trend has now reversed.

Saffron is obtained from the stigmas of crocus sativus flowers. It has various applications including food, medical, and cosmetics. It is being preferentially used as a natural colouring and flavouring ingredients over artificial ingredients. The different types of cuisines use saffron for various recipes preparation across the globe.
