Boric acid is a white, odorless, weak monobasic acid usually available as a powder. It is also known as boracic acid, hydrogen borate or orthoboracic acid. Boric acid has a crystalline structure and is soluble in water.

Neopentyl Glycol (NPG) is a clear colorless organic compound with a mild minty odor. It is miscible with organic solvents and insoluble in water. It is manufactured synthetically in the industry through a two step process. First step involves an aldol reaction of formaldehyde with isobutyraldehyde which yields an intermediate chemical called hydroxypivaldehyde. The intermediate chemical hydroxypivaldehyde is then subjected to catalytic dehydrogenation to convert an aldehyde group to alcohol group to obtain neopentyl glycol (NPG). Neopentyl glycol (NPG) can be irritating and harmful if inhaled or comes in contact with skin or eyes. Neopentyl glycol (NPG) ingestion is known to cause severe burning in mouth and the digestive tract accompanied with pain. It is a possible carcinogen with a flash point around 200 degrees Celcius and may form explosive peroxides. Commercially, Neopentyl Glycol (NPG) is shipped in the form of flakes, slurry or molten state.

Commodity plastics are a class of plastic materials that are used in large volumes in a variety of applications including packaging, films, tapes, clothing, containers and a wide range of household products. These types of plastics are utilized in applications where mechanical properties and product service environments are less critical. This class of plastics is usually available at low costs and are not used for high performance specialized applications. The end use products include plates, cups, trays, containers, printed materials, signs and displays among other disposable products. Commodity plastics include a wide array of polymer chemistries such as polyethylene, polystyrene, polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate and many others.

Mercaptoacetic acid consists of thiol or mercaptan and carboxylic acid. It was first identified by David R. Goddard in the early 1930's as a reagent for reducing the disulfide bonds in proteins such as keratin, a major component in hair, nails, etc.

Diethyl phthalate (DEP), also known as phthalol or solvanol in the industry, is a diethyl ester of phthalic acid. It is a colorless, oily liquid with slight odor. It is soluble in most common solvents such as acetone and alcohols and partly soluble in cold water. It is not flammable at room temperature, however, releases a mixture of toxic smoke when combusted. It is acutely toxic to humans and can cause damage to the liver and Central Nervous System (CNS). Diethyl phthalate (DEP) is biodegradable but breaks down into toxic chemicals and potentially harmful for the microorganisms in the soil. Phthalic anhydride is manufactured commercially, through the oxo process and/or the ald-ox process involving ethanol and the oxidation of naphthalene or o-xylene. This phthalic anhydride is then utilized for the production of diethyl phthalate (DEP) by reacting it with ethanol in the presence of catalyzing amount of concentrated sulfuric acid. The diethyl phthalate (DEP) produced has a purity higher than 99.7%.

Menthol is employed as an antispasmodic and relaxant for smooth muscles in medical procedure such as endoscopy.

Based on Technavio research on the IT markets in Latin America, availability of cost-effective, advanced technologies, and favorable business conditions positioned Latin America as one of the most favourable destinations for foreign investments. This is attributed to a positive impact on political stability in the environment. Therefore, populous countries and rapidly expanding economies such as India and China are likely to add significant revenue advantages to several industries across the US and European countries.

Fumaric acid is a white crystalline trans-butenedioic acid widely available in nature. It is more economical than other food acids (on a cost per unit weight basis); hence, it has potential to replace other acidulants such as citric and malic acids. In addition, its anti-microbial properties coupled with non-hygroscopic character makes an ideal choice for dry mix products and gives flavor stability to food products.

Retort pouches are heat-resistant bags that are laminated inside with multiple layers of flexible plastic and metal foils, which can withstand high temperature and pressure. The multiple layers consist of aluminum foil, nylon, and PET that are made up of materials such as polypropylene, aluminum, and silica oxide, which act as oxygen and water vapor barrier. Retort pouches are used to package heat-treated food. Nowadays, they are being used as an alternative for cans in the food packaging industry because they provide longer shelf life to the product packaged. These pouches undergo a detailed conversion process, including printing, lamination, coating, and extrusion to develop different types of packaging products with various features such as spouts and fitments, zippers, pour spouts, slider closures, and release valves. Packaging protects a product from spoilage and also improves the overall aesthetic appeal of the product.

Security of data and assets has been a key concern for enterprises, banks, government organizations, telecommunications, hospitals, as well as individuals. Keys, identity badges, and numeric keypads were previously being used to prevent unauthorised access. Technological advancements resulted in the introduction of two-factor authentication, wherein individuals could gain access to secure premises after being authenticated using two different components, such as hardware devices and numeric codes. However, hackers also could easily gain access to hardware devices and obtain numeric codes.
