Fluff pulps are used as a raw material in the absorbent core of personal care products such as diapers, feminine hygiene products, air-laid absorbent towelling, as such, or with superabsorbents and/or synthetic fibres. More than 80% of the pulps are used in baby diapers.
Considering specific density of 1.1 ton/m 3 confirmed reserves in Armenia amount to 165 million tons. Other reported reserves are: Greece - 120 million tonnes, Turkey, USA and Hungary - about 49-57 million tonnes. [6] [7] Perlite world production, led by China, Turkey, Greece, USA, Armenia and Hungary, summed up to 4.6 million tonnes in 2018 ...
Mineral wool is any fibrous material formed by spinning or drawing molten mineral or rock materials such as slag and ceramics. [1] Applications of mineral wool include thermal insulation (as both structural insulation and pipe insulation), filtration, soundproofing, and hydroponic growth medium.
Compared with normal wet-laid paper and tissue, air-laid paper is very bulky, porous and soft.It has good water absorption properties and is much stronger compared with normal tissue.
[15] [16] As a result, Eagle-Picher Corp. subsequently changed its name to EP Management. [ 15 ] [ 17 ] In December EP Management then sold Wolverine Advanced Materials to Wynnchurch Capital. [ 15 ] [ 18 ] In 2011, EPMC Holdings Corp. sold both EP Management and EP Minerals (formerly Eagle-Picher Minerals) to Gate Capital Corp. of San Francisco .
EPM has a large number of uses due to the many ways in which the polymer can be designed, for example; it is used in automotive weather-stripping and seals, self-amalgamating tape, glass run channels, radiators, garden and appliance hoses, tubing, belts, roofing membranes, expansion joints, rubber mechanical goods, plastic impact modification, thermoplastic vulcanisates and motor oil additive ...
A mineral with exactly the same composition as that of huntite has been known for more than 200 years; in 1812 for example, John [46] and Stromeyer [47] described it as having a chemical composition of CaCO 3:MgCO 3 = 1:3. In those days the mineral was known as conite (in German: Konit); a name given to it by Retzius (1798). [48]
Superabsorbent polymer: Polymer that can absorb and retain extremely large amounts of a liquid relative to its own mass. [5] Notes: The liquid absorbed can be water or an organic liquid. The swelling ratio of a superabsorbent polymer can reach the order of 1000:1. Superabsorbent polymers for water are frequently polyelectrolytes.
