Because of the combination of these properties ACUROTEX-600 has a wide range of applications. One of the most important applications is in textile as sequestering agent for various steps of textile processing.It is used as a strong chelating agent for metal ions like Ca, Mg & Fe in water treatment ,textile applications. They show efficient inhibition for CaCO3 & CaSO4 alone or in combination with low molecular weight polymers. They show efficiency in protecting metal corrosion.

Cyanuric acid, 1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-triol is prepared by passing chlorine into heated urea. It produces cyanuric chloride when treated with phosphorus pentachloride. It is used as a disinfectant, industrial deodorant and biocide in water treatment. It is used as a bleaching agent.

The names of the three isomers indicate which of the carbon-hydrogen units on the benzene ring position of the molecule have been replaced by nitrogens, called 1,2,3-triazine, 1,2,4-triazine, and 1,3,5-triazine respectively. Symmetrical 1,3,5-triazine is the common. Triazines are prepared from 2-azidocyclopropene through thermal rearrangement (1,2,3-triazine), from 1,2-dicarbonyl compound with amidrazone by condensation reaction (1,2,4-triazine) and from cyanic acid amide by trimerization (1,3,5-triazine). Pyridine is the aromatic nitrogen heterocycle compound having only one nitrogen, and diazines are with 2 nitrogen atoms and tetrazines are with 4 nitrogen atoms on the benzene ring system. Triazines are weak base. Triazines have much weaker resonance energy than benzene, so nucleophilic substitution is preferred than electrophilic substitution

It is relatively easy to obtain an improved fire performance of wood products. Most existing fire retardants are effective in reducing different reaction-to-fire parameters of wood such as ignitability, heat release and flame spread. The highest European and national fire classifications for combustible products can be reached. However, high retention levels have to be used compared to ordinary preservation treatments used to protect wood against biological decay.

Fire retardant wood and wood based panel products are being used in a wide variety of market areas.The fire retardant treatment, if correctly specified, provides added value to the wood based substrates and extends the market potential of the world's most natural building material.

Conditions of Use

The environment in which the Fire Retardant Treated Wood (FRTW) is to be used has great influence on the choice of FR treatment and formulations. High humidity or wet conditions can affect both the fire performance of certain treatments and lead to certain undesirable side effects such as strength reduction, corrosion of metal fixings, decay and problems with overpainting.

Characteristics of FR-formulations:

1. inorganic salt type for dry interior use only

2. humidity resistant chemical types for all interior uses and some weather protected exterior uses

3. leach resistant polymer types for fully exposed exterior situations

Intumescent coatings are generally only suitable for dry interior uses. This applies particularly to clear lacquers.Fire retardant treated wood (FRTW) is used world-wide in a range of end use applications. Technological advances with low hygroscopic and leach resistant formulations, and improvements in intumescent coatings now allow wood based panel products to be used safely in both interior, including humid conditions, and exterior situations.

The most typical end uses for FRTW are:-

· Internal wall and ceiling linings
· external cladding/facades
· roof constructions
· roofing shingles
· transportation - railway carriages, buses, maritime
· wooden scaffolding for both offshore and onshore
· pallets for the chemical industry
· military, e.g. packing cases
· exhibition stands
· TV and theatre scenery

Glycerol monostearate, commonly known as GMS, is an organic molecule used as an emulsifier.GMS is a colorless, odorless, and sweet-tasting flaky powder that is hygroscopic. It is a glycerol ester of stearic acid. It occurs naturally in the body as a by-product of the breakdown of fats, and is also found in fatty foods.GMS is a food additive used as a thickening, emulsifying, anti-caking, and preservative agent; an emulsifying agent for oils, waxes, and solvents; a protective coating for hygroscopic powders; a solidifier and control release agent in pharmaceuticals; and a resin lubricant. 
It is also used in cosmetics and hair care products.GMS is largely used in baking preparations to add "body" to the food. It is responsible for giving ice cream andwhipped cream its smooth texture.

Applications

• As an emulsifier, texture-improver, lubricant, processing aid, clump preventer and appearance improver in food products such as breads, biscuits, icecreams, confectionary, noodles, pasta, coffee whitener, chewing gum, extruded snacks and foods, breakfast cereals, fat spreads, meat products, peanut butter etc.

OCC contains simple sugar molecules which resemble a honeycomb or a zeolite molecule. Due to its unoccupied space, it can absorb many times its own weight in odorous molecules. It also contains amino hydroxyl groups which ionize sulfides and thiol Radicals to form hydroxyl sulfides. The hydroxyl sulfides are converted in the presence of oxygen to amino sulfate.

The sulfate group then separates ionically into a sulfate ion and another amino group which is free to react with another sulfide or mercaptan. Thus, a small amount of OCC can impact large amounts of sulfides and mercaptans. OCC also contains a proprietary acid which reacts with ammonia and amines to convert them to harmless salts.

OCC contains oxygenated terpenes which participate in ionic reactions and are highly reactive toward many odorous compounds.

In summary, OCC encapsulates, emulsifies, and generates specific reactions with odorous gases such as sulfides, thiols, amines, and ammonia to generate decomposition and re-composition reactions with aromatic structures and other circular hydrocarbons. These reactions continue in a series to release key components as they are no longer needed. These components are then free to function in the same reaction chain with other odorous molecules. These released components are self replicating to some degree. This is what allows substantial dilution of OCC while still producing high impact performance

OCC has a specific reactions with odorous gases such as:

• Sulfides

• Thiols

• Amines

• Ammonia to generate decomposition and re-composition reactions with aromatic structures and other circular hydrocarbons

Perchloroethylene (also called PERC) is a man-made chemical which is colorless, nonflammable liquid. The largest user of PERC is the dry cleaning industry. It accounts for 80% to 85% of all dry cleaning fluid used. Textile mills, chlorofluorocarbon producers, vapor degreasing and metal cleaning operations, and makers of rubber coatings also use PERC. It can be added to aerosol formulations, solvent soaps, printing inks, adhesives, sealants, polishes, lubricants, and silicones. Typewriter correction fluid and shoe polish are among the consumer products that can contain PERC. Perchloroethylene evaporates when exposed to air. It dissolves only slightly when mixed with water. It is also used for degreasing metal parts and in manufacturing other chemicals. Tetrachloroethene is found in consumer products, including some paint and spot removers, water repellents, brake and wood cleaners, glues, and suede protectors. Other names for tetrachloroethene include PERC, tetrachloroethylene, perchloroethylene, and PCE.

Perchloroethylene has become the most widely used dry cleaning solvent in the world, essentially because of its efficient solvency, ease of recycling, and the available technology that allows for safe handling.

Benefits of perchloroethylene solvent include:

• A heavier specific gravity than water to provide increased mechanical agitation during the wash cycle

• Low viscosity and low surface tension to enhance penetration of fibers

• Quick evaporation, leaving no residue or odors

• Superior recyclability

• Safe for fabrics and dyes commonly found in the fashion industry

These solvents are nonflammable and have neither flash point nor a fire point. And since zoning ordinances are often less restrictive when using nonflammable solvents.

It is widely used as a chemical preservative. This property is attributed to its slightly acidic nature that prevents the growth of microorganisms and thus prolongs the shelf life. It is widely used in the packaging of canned fruits, vegetables, dairy products (cheese and yogurt), and meat products (beef ad fish).

Potassium sorbate is used as a finalizing preservative to retain the flavor and taste of the wine after the completion of final distillation and fermentation processes. This is because, wine is produced by fermentation of fruits (that are high in sugars) by yeast; however, even when the final taste is achieved, there is still yeast and some sugar left. Without potassium sorbate, the fermentation process may continue; thereby changing the taster of wine. Potassium sorbate is added to control and limit the excessive growth of yeast in the wine.

Enriched hair care and skin care products are always at risk of getting contaminated by the growth of fungi and molds; however, if chemical agents like potassium sorbate are added to the mixture, the fermentation process can be easily controlled and personal care products can be used for a longer period of time.

Potassium sorbate is also used for a variety of industrial processes like in pain industry, rubber and plastic industry and other commercial and synthetic manufacturing units.

The product can be used in many water and wastewater treatment applications, in papermaking, and as a raw material intermediate in commercial industries
