The Right Chemicals for Your Applications

Mineral oil CAS#8042-47-5

Mineral oil<br/>colorless, transparent liquid<br/><br/>Mineral oil, also called white oil, is a clear, nearly odorless liquid with low volatility and negligible water solubility. It is generally stable under ordinary conditions and dissolves in selected organic solvents. Applications include lubrication, heat transfer, electrical insulation and protective coatings for metal surfaces. Laboratory uses include culture-medium overlays and suspension media, while appropriately selected grades serve cosmetic formulation purposes.

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose CAS#9004-62-0

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose<br/>HEC<br/>white to off-white powder<br/><br/>Hydroxyethyl cellulose, commonly abbreviated HEC, is an odorless, white to off-white hygroscopic powder that dissolves in cold water. Its viscosity behavior supports use as a thickener and water-retention additive in aqueous systems. Typical applications include latex paints, construction formulations, ceramic glazing and toothpaste binding. It also serves in fracturing fluids, polymer dispersions and textile or paper processing formulations.

Benzisotriazole CAS#95-14-7

Benzisotriazole<br/>1H-benzotriazole<br/>BT<br/><br/>1H-Benzotriazole is a corrosion-inhibiting ingredient used in metalworking and surface-protection formulations. Its applications focus on nonferrous metals such as copper, silver and zinc, where protective-film formation is relevant to treatment design. Typical uses include circulating-water systems, antifreeze, anti-rust oils and coatings. It is also used in artwork restoration and as a component of aircraft deicing and anti-icing fluids.

Basic Red 51 CAS#12270-25-6

Basic Red 51<br/>red to purplish-red powder<br/><br/>Basic Red 51 is a cationic dye supplied as red to purplish-red powder with good water solubility. Its coloring characteristics support vivid red shades, particularly on acrylic fibers and cationic-dyeable modified polyester. Other applications include paper and leather dyeing and selected ink or coating formulations. Dyeing conditions and material compatibility determine its suitability for the intended substrate and color requirements.

Lead monoxide CAS#1317-36-8

Lead monoxide<br/>Lead(II) oxide<br/>litharge<br/>yellow crystalline solid<br/><br/>Lead monoxide, also called lead(II) oxide or litharge, is an odorless yellow crystalline solid with low volatility. It is insoluble in water but dissolves in acetic and nitric acids and has limited alkali solubility. Typical uses include glass and porcelain fluxes, ceramic glazes, pigments and oil-drying formulations. It also serves as an analytical reagent in gold and silver ore analysis.
