What is a Sodium silicate? Sodium silicate, also known as “Liquid glass” or “Water glass”, is a compound and usually a colorless transparent solid or white powder. It is soluble in water under prescribed limits. Factors, such as increasing demand for sodium silicate from applications such as precipitated silica, detergents, pulp & paper, construction, metal casting, water treatment, and food preservation. In addition, technological advancements, rising disposable income of people in emerging economies, increasing usage in the construction segment, shifting preferences regarding detergents and cleaning agents and growing demand are likely to drive the sodium silicate industry in forthcoming period. On the other hand, hazardous effects on human health due to exposure to high concentration of sodium silicate are anticipated to hinder sodium silicate market growth in future. However, increase in demand for environment-friendly binding agents in the construction manufacturing is lik...

  What is a Methyl-ethyl-ketone (MEK): Methyl-ethyl-ketone(MEK) is a colourless and a harsh smelling carbon-based compound. It is commonly identified as butanone. It is characterized by outstanding chemical properties including high viscosity, low boiling point, high solvency and high evaporation rate owing to which it is used as a solvent across several applications. This liquid has a sweet smell indicated the presence of acetone and butterscotch, hence is produced on a large scale in the industries. Photo-oxidation of air pollutants such as hydrocarbons and butane results in the form of MEK. It is widely used in industrial applications as it is easily soluble in water. The primary usage of MEK is as a solvent in processes involving gums cellulose acetate, resins and cellulose nitrate. Other end use applications where MEK is used include domestic products such as lacquer and varnishes, synthetic rubber, paraffin wax and glues as well as paint remover. What is the Methyl-e...

  What is a Graphene Nano platelets? Graphene Nanoplatelets are also termed as GNPs that comprise small stacks of graphene which can replace nano-clays, carbon fiber, carbon nanotubes, and others mainly in composite applications. The average thickness of platelets is 5 to 10 nanometers that can vary in size up to 50 microns. Due to their unique morphology and size, enhanced mechanical properties and advanced barrier properties can be achieved. The Graphene Nanoplatelets Market is estimated to grow at a significant CAGR of 37.6% over the future period as the scope and its applications are rising enormously across the globe. What is the future of Graphene Nano Platelets? Global GrapheneNanoplatelets Market is expected to reach USD 206.0 million by 2025. Rising demand from energy & power and aerospace verticals, high demand from consumers for eco-friendly, effective, strong, and lightweight products, and rising use as a filler in polymer matrices are documented as major fa...

  Why Paints And Coating:  Paints and coatings enable better products that are durable, much attractive, reliable, and highly saleable. Paints and coatings are looked upon as the materials that add value to the finished products. The paints and coatings serve three major objectives; enabling aesthetic appeal or decorative value to surfaces and products, enabling protection from damage from harsh environment, and tagging specific attributes to the product. Besides, paints and coatings constitute a specific material and design with significant texture variables. Future of Paint Industry: The global  Paintsand Coatings market  is expected to cross USD 227.70 billion by 2025. Paints and coatings industry is driven by factors such as rise in use of paint and coating in automotive, construction, and marine industries. In addition, rise in innovation in manufacturing processes and derivation of formulation technologies propel the market growth. The market witnesses remarkab...

Anti-fogAdditives was estimated to be USD 1.22 billion globally. The market is projected to grow considerably over the upcoming period due to its increasing demand from films of agricultural. Anti-fog products find it’s applications as polymer concentrates or coatings. Anti-fog additives by its physiological characteristics reduce the water droplets induced surface energy that forms on the surface of the polymer, owing to which the precipitations combine and forms a coat on transparent films, enhancing appearance and visibility. Anti-fog additives are being widely used by industries such as agriculture, optical glasses, automobiles and packaging as it improves visibility by reducing fog. Its low production cost combined with the robust growth in food packaging and processing industries in developing and emerging economies such as India, China, Thailand, and Vietnam are estimated to trigger industry growth during the period forecasted. Shifting consumer preference for packaged food d...

As per the report published by the experts the scope of the global CondensedWhey Market was expected at US$ 2.54 billion in 2018. It is expected to record a CAGR of 8.4% for the duration of the forecast and touch US$ 4.47 billion by the completion of 2025. The condensed whey is the dense fluid or else liquid. It is remained after milk has been strained and coagulated. It is concluded in the course of making the cheese or else casein and has a unique business use. Whey protein is a collection of curved proteins secluded from whey. At the present time, whey is one of the main existing storages of food protein. Whey proteins contain immunoglobulins, β-lacto globulin, serum albumin, proteose-peptones, and α-lactalbumin. It create it one of the major sources of protein. Whey is categorized on the base of its source into acid whey and sweet whey. Sweet whey is acquired from the treating of solid cheese, for example cheddar or else Swiss cheese. Conversely, acid whey is created from acid...
