Tara Gum is a natural chemical that is obtained from Caesalpinia Spinosa seeds. The endosperm of the Tara tree is what is used to produce the chemical. The tree is mainly grown in Peru and that is why the chemical is otherwise known as Peruvian Carob. It belongs to the group of chemicals known as Galactomannan. These chemicals are polysaccharides made up of mannose and galactose. Tara Gum is prepared through the process of treating the seeds with sulfuric acid. There is also a roasting method that helps separate germs from the endosperm. The chemical is majorly used as an additive that helps in thickening and stabilizing foods.

Xanthan Gum is an extracellular polysaccharide used in food processing. It is a good additive that can be used for different kinds of food. The chemical is made through the process of bacterial fermentation. At the same time, it can also be extracted from plants. Commercial Xanthan Gum is mostly produced using the fermentation process. Carbohydrate sources such as corn starch and Xanthomonas Campestri- which is a naturally occurring bacterium on green vegetable surface are the major constituents. The two at then fermented and purified using isopropanol or ethanol. The molecular formula of Xanthan Gum is represented as (C35H49O29)n.

Triethanolamine 85% (TEA 85%) is a colorless to yellow liquid. It is completely soluble in water, also soluble in ethanol, acetone, glycerine, and ethylene glycol. It has an ammonia like smell.

Strontium Carbonate is a white, powdered, tasteless, and odorless chemical. It occurs naturally in the mineral strontianite. Its chemical formula is represented as SrCO3. It is a non-hygroscopic strontium salt, unlike other strontium salts

Sorbic Acids are organic compounds that occur naturally and serve as food preservatives. The Potassium salt of a Sorbic acid is called Potassium Sorbate. It is used in the food industry in the preservation of food and wine. It is also used for preserving personal-care products and toiletries. Potassium Sorbate is found naturally in berries. Meanwhile, commercial Potassium Sorbate is manufactured synthetically. It is made from the treatment of Sorbic Acid with Potassium hydroxide. The chemical formula of Potassium Sorbate is C6H7KO2.

Sodium Tripolyphosphate is an inorganic chemical. It’s the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is a triphosphoric acid’s conjugate base. It is widely used as a component in various residential and industrial products, particularly detergents. Its widespread use is blamed for the environmental problems connected with eutrophication. It has the chemical formula Na5P3O10. It is produced in the laboratory by heating a stoichiometric mixture of disodium phosphate and monosodium phosphate under carefully controlled conditions.

Sodium Sulfate Anhydrous is an inorganic compound having the formula Na2SO4. It is insoluble in ethanol and soluble in glycerol, water, and hydrogen iodide. Anhydrous Sodium Sulfate is known as the rare mineral thenardite.

Sodium Selenite is an inorganic salt that serves as an industrial chemical. The chemical is used in the glass manufacturing industry. It also serves as a feed supplement for animal feed-making industries. The reaction of sodium hydroxide and selenium dioxide yields Sodium Selenite. The chemical formula for the compound is Na2SeO3.

Sodium Nitrite

Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP)

Sodium erythorbate is a chemical that is particularly useful in the food industry. It is the sodium salt of erythorbic acid, and it is produced from different sugar sources such as beets, corn, and sugar cane. It has the chemical formula C6H7NaO6. It is non reactive in its dry, crystalline state but reacts readily with oxidizing agents when in solution with water.

PolyDadMac is a strong cationic polyelectrolyte. It is an organic compound. It is viscous. It is synthesized by the radical polymerization of DADMAC (DADMAC is produced by reacting two equivalents of allyl chloride with dimethylamine) with an organic peroxide as a catalyst. Its chemical formula is represented as (C8H16NCl)n

Polyanionic Cellulose is a polymer derivative of Cellulose with a high degree of purity. It is regarded as a premium product because of its typical higher carboxymethyl substitution and the presence of less residual NaCl than that of technical-grade Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). However, PAC still contains a considerable amount of NaCl. It is a water-based drilling fluid used for varying purposes in fluid environments. Its molecular structure is similar to that of CMC, but it is considered to be better than CMC. It also has low water loss properties.

Paraformaldehyde, also known as Formaldehyde Resin, is an industrial chemical. It is used in industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, and medicine. It is obtained as a by-product of Formaldehyde polymerization. When the chemical is depolymerized, it gives back formaldehyde. The chemical formula of Paraformaldehyde is C2H6O2.

Hydrochloric Acid 33% (HCl 33%) is a colourless transparent liquid. It is an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride. It is a strong and highly corrosive acid which has a distinctive pungent odor. It is water and alcohol soluble but insoluble in hydrocarbons. It is an extremely important industrial chemical.

DL-Methionine is an essential amino acid in humans. It is a sulfur-containing organic compound. It is encoded by the codon AUG. Its chemical formula is represented as C5H11NO2S. The chemical exhibits phase behavior, it changes from solid to liquid and gas. It cannot be synthesized in the body and must be obtained by consuming methionine-containing proteins.

Alpha Olefin Sulfonate 35% (AOS35)

It is used as a bleaching agent in textile and paper industries. It is used in the production of various organic compounds in the chemical industries. It is used in the oxidation and hydroxylation reactions. Hydrogen Peroxide is used as a steriliser and disinfectant in wastewater treatment. In the mining industry it is used for eliminating the toxic effects of cyanide tailings.
