For functional ingredients used in personal care and home care formulations, structural characteristics are one of the key foundations that determine their application value: whether the ingredient carries a charge, whether it can form a film, whether it can modify rheological properties, and ...
Oxalate metabolism and degradation detection is used for urinary oxalate assessment, plant oxalate accumulation analysis, microbial oxalate-degrading strain screening, and activity studies of oxalate oxidase and oxalate decarboxylase. During detection, sample matrix, oxalate form, degradation ...
In the household and daily chemical industry, the term “sulfonic acid” usually refers to linear alkylbenzene sulfonic acid (LABSA). It is a basic surfactant raw material commonly used in laundry powder, liquid laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid, hard-surface cleaners, and certain ...
Polyamines are a class of nitrogen-containing organic compounds that contain multiple amine-type nitrogen atoms, or multiple amino and imino structural units within the molecule. They are widely involved in life sciences, organic synthesis, materials chemistry, environmental adsorption, and ...
Aromatic amino acid metabolism mainly centers on tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine. Key enzymes determine how these amino acids are directed toward neurotransmitters, melanin, catecholamines, kynurenine, phenylpyruvate, and energy metabolism intermediates. This article focuses on the major ...
Many problems in coating formulations may appear, on the surface, to be related to solvents, additives, pigments, application, or curing. In essence, however, they are often associated with the polarity matching of resins.
Coating lifting refers to a defect that occurs during multi-layer coating application or repainting of old paint films. Solvents, co-solvents, or thinners in the upper coating penetrate into the underlying coating film, causing the lower film to soften, become plasticized, swell, or partially ...
The same resin can be modified in different ways, and different resins can also achieve performance improvements through similar structural design strategies. For example, copolymerization can be used to adjust the glass transition temperature, Tg; grafting can improve the compatibility between ...
Cell wall polysaccharide-degrading enzymes are mainly used to lyse plant cell walls, fungal cell walls, bacterial peptidoglycan, and microbial extracellular polysaccharide matrices. Common enzyme types include cellulase, pectinase, xylanase, chitinase, β-glucanase, lysozyme, and various ...
