Diethylene Glycol (DEG) DEG is an organic compound with the formula (HOCH2CH2)2O. It is a colorless, practically odorless, poisonous, hygroscopic liquid with a sweetish taste. It is miscible in water, alcohol, ether, acetone, and ethylene glycol. DEG is a widely used as solvent. Diethylene glycol, CH2OHCH2OCH2CH2OH, is similar in properties to MEG (mono ethylene glycol), […]
Description of Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG) Mono ethylene glycol (MEG) (also known as MEG, EG, 1,2-ethanediol, or 1,2-dihydroxyethane) is an organic compound with the formula C2H6O2. It is a slightly viscous liquid with a clear, colorless appearance and a sweet taste that emits virtually no odor. It’s miscible with water, alcohol, and many other organic […]
General Description of Malasian Rubber Standard Malasian Rubber (SMR), caucho or caoutchouc, as initially produced, consists of polymers of the organic compound isoprene, with minor impurities of other organic compounds, plus water. Thailand, Malaysia are two of the leading rubber producers. Types of polyisoprene that are used as natural rubbers are classified as elastomers. Currently, […]
Description of Acetic acid: Acetic acid (CH3COOH), also called ethanoic acid, the most important of the carboxylic acids. A dilute (approximately 5 percent by volume) solution of acetic acid produced by fermentation and oxidation of natural carbohydrates is called vinegar; a salt, ester, or acylal of acetic acid is called acetate. Industrially, acetic acid is […]
Description of Bentonite: Bentonite is an absorbent swelling clay consisting mostly of montmorillonite. It usually forms from weathering of volcanic ash in seawater, which converts the volcanic glass present in the ash to clay minerals. Bentonite beds are white or pale blue or green in fresh exposures, turning to a cream color and then yellow, […]
