Nonfood Compounds Program: Food-Grade Lubricants (Report). NSF International. April 2024. Food-grade lubricants exported into or imported out of Brazil must be certified to ISO 21469. [5] A database of all ISO 21469 certified lubricants is maintained at the NSF's website. [6] It is noteworthy that ISO 21469 has not been updated since 2006.
The 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane is then dehydrochlorinated to give trichloroethylene. This can be accomplished either with an aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide: 2 Cl 2 CHCHCl 2 + Ca(OH) 2 → 2 ClCH=CCl 2 + CaCl 2 + 2 H 2 O. or in the vapor phase by heating it to 300–500 °C on a barium chloride or calcium chloride catalyst: Cl 2 CHCHCl 2 ...
Oil additives are chemical compounds that improve the lubricant performance of base oil (or oil "base stock"). The manufacturer of many oils can use the same base stock for each formulation and can choose different additives for each use. Additives comprise up to 5% by weight of some oils. [1]
Motor oil, a common lubricant. A lubricant (sometimes shortened to lube) is a substance that helps to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move. It may also have the function of transmitting forces, transporting foreign particles, or heating or cooling the surfaces.
Squalene is an organic compound. It is a triterpene with the formula C 30 H 50. It is a colourless oil, although impure samples appear yellow. It was originally obtained from shark liver oil (hence its name, as Squalus is a genus of sharks). An estimated 12% of bodily squalene in humans is found in sebum. [5]
A sample of synthetic motor oil. Synthetic oil is a lubricant consisting of chemical compounds that are artificially modified or synthesised. Synthetic oil is used as a substitute for petroleum-refined oils when operating in extreme temperature, in metal stamping to provide environmental and other benefits, and to lubricate pendulum clocks.
A lubricant, aka lube, is a liquid, made of silicone, water, or oil, used during sexual activity to reduce friction by making the genital skin feel smoother, either solo or with a partner, says ...
Nonoxynol-9 is a common ingredient of most vaginal and anal lubricants due to its spermicidal properties. A 2004 study found that over a six-month period, the typical-use failure rates for five nonoxynol-9 vaginal contraceptives (film, suppository, and gels at three different concentrations) ranged from 10% to 20%.
