Excipients which are inactive substance are generally used as a carrier for the active ingredients in medicines. In most of the cases, active substances may not be absorbed in the human body easily, in such a case the active ingredient is mixed or dissolved with an excipient. Excipients also allow convenient and accurate dosage by bulking up formulation that contains very potent active ingredients. Excipients used in medication may vary according to the route of administration - for rectal administration a different excipient is used which is then added with active ingredients to produce suppositories whereas excipients used in tablets and capsules for oral administration are different.

Cardiac disease is a group of disorders of blood vessels and heart. Congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease and heart rhythm problems are some of the major cardiac diseases. Most common cause of heart disease is narrowing or blockage of blood vessels and coronary artery i.e. ischemic heart disease. Cardiac disease is mainly caused due to high cholesterol, smoking and high blood pressure. In addition, several other diseases such as, diabetes and obesity, and lifestyle changes such as poor nutrition, excessive alcohol and physical inactivity causes higher risk of cardiac diseases. In the U.S. heart disease is the leading cause of death in men and women. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2010, in the U.S. approximately 600,000 people die due to heart disease. Prevention or control of heart disease is essential. Prevention from heart disease can be done by, controlling high blood pressure, lifestyle changes, lowering cholesterol, exercising and maintaining health weight. Heart disease treatment varies by condition. Cardiovascular implants have unique blood biocompatibility property, to ensure that the device is not rejected due to adverse thrombogenic or hemodynamic blood responses. There are various implantable cardiac devices such as cardiovascular stent, left ventricular assisted device, pacemakers, artificial hearts, defibrillators and vascular grafts. Pacemakers help in controlling the abnormal heart rhythm. Similarly, implantable defibrillator prevents cardiac arrest. Cardiac implant is composed of polymeric material such as hydrolytically degradable polyesters.

Cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) is an amorphous, transparent thermoplastic material with uses from trim for automobiles to tool handles, pens and blister packaging among others. It can be melted and remodeled into new shapes without altering its molecular structure. It is resistant to ultraviolet rays, has low moisture absorption and high impact strength. In addition it has high transparency, aesthetic appeal, high dielectric constant, excellent machinability, compatibility with human skin and ability to be offered in unlimited range of colors. It has soft and pliable nature and can be stretched up to 60% of its original length. It is expensive than its precursor cellulose acetate because of additional steps necessary in producing the compound. Since, cellulose acetate butyrate is resistant to ultraviolet, it can be used for applications where high surface gloss is needed such as production of lacquers for lenses and for various forms of plastic film.

Cellulose paints are plant based coatings which carry the advantage of being painted in layers as compared to conventional distemper paints. Cellulose paints have a mixture of pigments which exhibit their aesthetics due to the ability of the pigments to show light refraction. These paints are easy to remove during the coating of another paint as its temporary in nature. It is not high in opacity or hiding power. Large scale corporations such as AkzoNobel N.V. are significantly involved in the production of cellulose paints through their product Bermocoll. These paints contain a range of non-ionic cellulose ethers which are use as water retaining agent, stabilizers, and thickeners for water based paints for decorative applications. During the production of these paints, cellulose reacts with various substituents such as ethyl, methyl and hydroxyethyl or hydrophobic groups, which is called etherification that makes Bermocoll water soluble in nature. Cellulose paints are regarded as active agents with polymeric surface and exhibit the ability to contribute to disperse the pigments by enhancing the flow during grinding. Cellulose paints are manufactured in a broad range of viscosities which enable consumers to choose the specific viscosity required for the application of the paint. In order to avoid the lump formation during addition of water to cellulose paints, manufacturers treat all the paint grades with a controlled amount of glyoxal.

Cerium is a very soft and ductile metal which oxidizes very easily in the air. The metallic cerium is manufactured using metallothermic process which in turns gives cerium of higher purity. Cerium is used as catalysts and adhesives in numerous commercial applications. Cerium exhibits properties similar to that of calcium and accumulates in the bones in small amounts. Cerium can be found in small amounts in barley and tobacco plants.

Chloroacetyl chloride is a versatile reagent and has been extensively used in organic synthesis. Chloroacetyl chloride is a bifunctional compound that makes it a useful chemical building block. Chloroacetyl chloride is also known as chloroacetic chloride; chlorocetic acid chloride and monochloroacetyl chloride among others. Industrially, chloroacetyl chloride is produced by oxidation of vinylidene chloride, the carbonylation of methylene chloride or the addition of chlorine to ketene. Chloroacetyl chloride may be prepared from chloroacetic acid and phosphorus pentachloride, thionyl chloride, or phosgene. Chloroacetyl chloride occurs as a colorless to yellowish liquid and has a very pungent odor. Chloroacetyl chloride reacts rapidly with water and liberates toxic gas upon contact with water. Chloroacetyl chloride is incompatible with alcohols, strong oxidizing agents and bases (including amines). Chloroacetyl chloride may react vigorously or explosively if mixed with diisopropyl ether or other ethers in the presence of trace amounts of metal salts.

Chondrodite is a rare nesosilicate mineral which is usually encountered as the most frequent member of the humite group of minerals. It is formed from locally metamorphosed dolomite in hydrothermal deposits as well as associated with serpentinite and skarn. Chondrodite is found significantly in metamorphic contact zones between alkaline or acidic intrusions and carbonate rocks where the introduction of fluorine occurs by metasomatic processes. Chondrodite is produced by hydrating olivine ((Mg,Fe2+)2SiO4) and is stable over a range of pressures and temperatures which include those present in a portion of the uppermost mantle. Certain types of chondrodite such as titanian chondrodite have been found in olivine as inclusions in West Greenland. It is associated with magnetite, magnesite, olivine, clinohumite, and Ni-Co-Pb sulfides in a matrix of antigorite.

Chromium phosphate is a polyatomic ionic compound which either receives or donates electrons. The compound is also termed as orthophosphate of phosphoric acid or chromium salt which is insoluble in water.
