This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition has been designed to monitor the progress in develop ment over the past few years and to build on the information given in the first edition. It has been extensively revised and updated. My thanks go to all who have contributed to this work. D.F.W. May 1996 Preface to the first edition This book is the result of a group of development scientists feeling that there was an urgent need for a reference work that would assist chemists in understanding the science involved in the development of new products. The approach is to inform in a way that allows and encourages the reader to develop his or her own creativity in working with marketing colleagues on the introduction of new products. Organised on a product category basis, emphasis is placed on formulation, selection of raw materials, and the technology of producing the products discussed. Performance considerations, safety, product liability and all aspects of quality are covered. Regulations governing the production and sale of cosmetic products internationally are described, and sources for updated information provided. Throughout the book, reference is made to consumer pressure and environmental issues-concerns which the development scientist and his or her marketing counterpart ignore at their own, and their employer's peril. In recent years, many cosmetic fragrances and toiletry products have been converted from aerosols to mechanically press uri sed products or sprays, and these are described along with foam products such as hair conditioning mousses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural and Synthetic Waxes A compilation of all relevant information for the production and use of waxes in technical applications Waxes are among the oldest organic substances used by mankind. Before all others, beeswax is known to have played a role in human history for thousands of years. But over time, many other wax species have been detected and exploited, and prepared for different utilizations. Today, we possess knowledge of a great variety of different types of waxes. Unfortunately, there still is no broadly accepted definition of a wax: for the relatively few wax chemists, waxes are usually defined by their physico-chemical properties more than by their chemical constitution. Waxes are not uniform but oligomeric and polymeric substances, not simply describable with a chemical formula. The realm of waxes encompasses fully or partly natural, refined, partly or fully synthetic products, which can be extended by “wax-like” products which do not fulfil all definition criteria. Waxes are offered in different forms like pellets, granules, powders, or micropowders. Their number of technical applications runs into thousands. However, waxes in most cases are just adjuvants or additives, and with few exceptions like candles not known to a broader public. Only few publications over the last decades tried to present a more comprehensive overview of heir chemistry, chemical composition, their physical and analytical properties, their applications, and their sometimes astonishing history. Based on personal experience and expertise, the authors intend to present an overview on the main classes of waxes, their origin, history, future, and potential fate. Economical aspects like market size and development, ecological impacts and challenges, and regulatory issues are also addressed. Waxes are indispensable products in everyday life and in industry and technology, though mostly not even visible or distinguishable to experts. They deserve more than the role of a “poor cousin” in chemistry and technology.

Chattopadhyay and published by ASIA PACIFIC BUSINESS PRESS Inc.. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wax is a simple lipid that is formed by the esterification of a long-chain alcohol and a fatty acid. The alcohol might have anything from 12 to 32 carbon atoms. Waxes are found as coats on leaves and stems in nature. The wax helps to keep the plant from losing too much water. Waxes are utilized in a variety of applications around the world, including packaging, coatings, cosmetics, foods, adhesives, inks, castings, crayons, chewing gum, polishes, and candles. Waxing and polishing serve very distinct purposes in terms of process detailing. Waxing is a method of protecting the paint on the exterior of a vehicle. However, Polishing is what is done after a wax to ensure that the vehicle has that glossy shine. Wax does this by smoothing out the painted surface by filling swirls and scratches with a protective coating. The worldwide wax market is growing at a rate of 2.8 percent per year. Over the forecast period, rising demand for wax in various applications such as candles, packaging, rubber & plastic processing, cosmetics & toiletries, fire logs, adhesives, building boards, medicines, and home & automotive polishes is expected to drive market expansion. The market for furniture polish is growing at a rate of 5.0 percent per year. Furniture polish is in high demand due to rising need for harm-resistant business and residential settings, increased furniture exports, and increased furniture production. This will propel the global furniture polish market forward. Increased disposable income, as well as government investments in infrastructure development. The major contents of the book are Vegetable Waxes, Paraffin Wax Compounds, Synthetic Mineral Waxes, Other Mineral Waxes, Polish, Abrasives, Metal Cleaners, Polishes, Microcrystalline Waxes, Photographs of Machinery with Suppliers Contact Details and Plant Layout & Process Flow Chart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science, Technology and European Cultural Heritage is a collection of papers from the Proceedings of the European Symposium of the same title held in Bologna, Italy on June13-16, 1989. The papers discuss the critical issues related to the scientific and technical aspects of the protection and conservation of the cultural heritage of Europe. Participants of the symposium identify and describe the main research and development issues that are common to cultural heritage problems, and increase cooperation in these areas. Other papers examine the applicability of research and development through better matching with the real needs of conservators, restorers, policy makers, and the general public. The participants also discuss specific research and development directions for the future, including the provision of a scientific basis for European Community policies on environment and culture. One paper presents some of the scientific research done both in the field and laboratory of specific historical areas, monuments, indoor objects. As an example, archaeologists can use infrared thermal image analysis as an enhanced tool to detect buried archeological and historical sites. Another paper analyzes the chemical and physical properties of deteriorated stones in historical monuments in Castile-Leon. The collection can prove useful for archaeologists, historians, museum curators, and policy makers involved in national and cultural preservation.
