Though the effect of using vaporizer on human body is not fully known, it is considered as less toxic that the conventional tobacco cigarette as it produces vapor instead of smoke. With the increasing demand of vaporizer, many technological advancement took place in order to protect the vaporizer for getting used by other users other than the owner.

A photomask is a solid plate with transparencies or holes that let light to pass from one side to the other in a predefined pattern. Exposure systems usually project an image on the wafer by using a photomask. The function of the photomask is to block the light in some specific areas. Maskless lithography procedures direct a precise beam of light directly onto the surface of the wafer without using a mask. However, it is seldom used for commercial processes. Exposure systems falls under the semiconductor production equipment. The capability to draw a flawless image of a small pattern onto the surface wafer is maintained by the wavelength of the light, and the capacity of the lens system to follow diffraction commands from the mask. Advanced tools use deep ultraviolet light from lasers with wavelengths between 193 and 248 nm.

Opaque polymers are pigments with hollow spheres. They are opaque. Opaque polymers are specially engineered for usage in paints and coatings in order to improve the latter's hiding properties and whiteness. Usage of opaque polymers in paints and coatings formulations help improve the optical properties of paint formulations. Opaque polymers consist of emulsions in the form of spherical styrene or acrylic beads. These are filled with water for usage in wet paints. When the paints get dry, water from these beads permanently diffuses, and is replaced by air. This results in a uniform dry paint film, with uniform distribution of voids. Opaque polymers help in filling up and hiding the gaps in paints and coatings. Addition of more titanium dioxide (TiO2) is generally encountered in the paints & coatings industry to compensate for gaps. However, it is an inefficient and costly measure with diminishing returns. It helps improve the light scattering properties of paints and coatings. Usage of opaque polymers in paints and coatings brings about an overall cost efficiency in formulations. Usage of opaque polymers also helps lower the usage of TiO2, while maintaining the opacity of paints and coatings. Furthermore, use of opaque polymers in the production of paints and coatings provides them with benefits such as improved resistance to dirt, tint retention, and film durability. Opaque polymers are being extensively employed in formulations of water based as well as solvent based paints and coatings. However, substitutes such as flash calcined kaolin are competing technologies for opaque polymers. They provide the users with several benefits over opaque polymers. At equal volume concentration in high PVC emulsion paints, flash calcined kaolin provides better opacity than opaque polymers. Furthermore, comparatively less volume of flash calcined kaolin is required to match the opacity of opaque polymers. Thus, substituting technologies such as calcined kaolin are anticipated to provide tough competition to the opaque polymers market during the forecast period.

Iso amyl acetate is an organic compound formed after the reaction between iso amyl alcohol and acetic acid. Iso amyl acetate is slightly soluble in water and very soluble in most organic solvents. Iso amyl alcohol is primarily used to confer banana flavor in foods. Pear oil commonly refers to a solution of iso amyl acetate in ethanol, which is used as an artificial flavor. This commercially important solvent is used as carrier for materials such as nitrocellulose. Iso amyl acetate occurs in nature as the alarm pheromone of the honey bee. It is used for the preparation of many synthetic flavors of apple, banana, and even coffee. Iso amyl acetate is employed in more than 40 flavors. It can be produced by yeast during fermentation. Iso amyl acetate has strong, pleasant, odor and low toxicity; thus, it can be used to test effectiveness of gas seals, which are used in respirators.
