Grades from Chemceed
Acetyl Tributyl Citrate (ATBC)
Acetyl Tributyl Citrate (ATBC) is a used as a biodegradable plasticizer for PVC and cellulose derivates, and it is approved for food contact materials and can even been used as a food additive. ATBC is also used as an emollient for personal care/cosmetics products such as aerosol hair sprays and nail polishes. In addition, ATBC can be used for pharmaceutical coatings (USP grade available), lubricants, and inks.
Azodicarbonamide (AZO)
Azodicarbonamide is used as a blowing agent in plastics. As a blowing agent, azodicarbonamide allows for plastic polymers to flow more freely. With the addition of azodicarbonamide into plastics, it allows for bubbles to be form allowing for the polymer to become a foam material. As a food additive, Azodicarbonamide serves as a flour bleaching agent and an improving agent.
C12/C14 Fatty Alcohol
C12-C14 Fatty Alcohol finds use as a solvent in the production of detergents and surfactants. C12-C14 Fatty Alcohol is also used as an emulsifier, emollient, and thickener in the cosmetic and food industry.
C12/C18 Fatty Alcohol
C12-C18 Fatty Alcohol finds use as a solvent in the production of detergents and surfactants. C12-C18 Fatty Alcohol is also used as an emulsifier, emollient, and thickener in the cosmetic and food industry.
C8/C10 Fatty Acid
C8-C10 Fatty Acid (Caprylic-Capric) is used for a variety of applications in industries such as lubricants & greases, metalworking fluids, coatings & adhesives, cosmetics & personal care, food & nutrition, pharmaceutical, and plastics & rubber.
C8/C10 Fatty Alcohol
C8-C10 Fatty Alcohol finds use as a solvent in the production of detergents and surfactants. C8-C10 Fatty Alcohol is also used as an emulsifier, emollient, and thickener in the cosmetic and food industry.
Citric Acid
Citric acid is an excellent chelating agent, making it useful in cleaners to remove limescale and to soften water in soaps and detergents. For pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, citric acid is used as a pH adjuster. As a food additive, citric acid is a natural preservative and is also used to an acidic or sour taste to foods and drinks.
Ammonium Bicarbonate (Food Grade)
Ammonium Bicarbonate is used as a raising agent in flat baked goods such as cookies and crackers and other similar applications in the food industry. Compared to baking soda, Ammonium Bicarbonate will not affect the taste of flat baked goods. Ammonium bicarbonate can also be used in the manufacturing of plastics and rubbers as a fire retardant. In the fertilizer industry, Ammonium Bicarbonate can be used as an inexpensive source of ammonia.
Fumaric Acid, Food Grade - Kosher
Fumaric acid is a food additive used as an anti-oxidant and to keep moisture from hardening food powders. Fumaric acid is also used in applications such as coatings, resins, pharmaceuticals and plasticizers.
Glycerine - USP, EP, BP, JP Grade
Glycerin is a versatile and widely used humecant, thickener, lubricant, solvent, and sweetener used in many food, pharmaceutical, and personal care applications. Additional applications include use as an antifreeze or a chemical intermediate. Glycerin can be derived from natural, renewable sources, as a byproduct of biodiesel, or it can be synthetically created.
Maleic Anhydride
Maleic Anhydride is a chemical intermediate used in the production of alkyd resins for paints and coatings and unsaturated polyester resins used for fiberglass. It is also used in the production of agricultural chemicals, lubricant additives, copolymers, and plasticizers. The chemical reactivity of maleic anhydride make it a versatile intermediate in a whole range of other applications ranging from food additives to epoxy curing.
Ascorbic Acid - USP/FCC/Kosher
Ascorbic Acid is used in plastic manufacturing to synthesize molecular chains without as much waste product being produced. Ascorbic Acid is commonly used as an antioxidant food additive. In food applications, ascorbic acid can also be used as a natural preservative. In addition, ascorbic acid is used to remove metal stains (iron) from fiberglass swimming pools.
Aspartame, FCC/USP
Aspartame is a food additive used as an artificial sweetener.
