  2. Glycerol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol

    Triglyceride 3 NaOH / H 2 O Δ 3 × soap 3 × glycerol Triglycerides can be saponified with sodium hydroxide to give glycerol and fatty sodium salt or soap. Typical plant sources include soybeans or palm. Animal-derived tallow is another source. Approximately 950,000 tons per year are produced in the United States and Europe; 350,000 tons of glycerol were produced per year in the U.S. alone ...

  3. List of esters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_esters

    An ester of carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).

  4. Propanethiol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propanethiol

    Propanethiol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C 3 H 8 S. It belongs to the group of thiols. It is a colorless liquid with a strong, offensive odor. It is moderately toxic and is less dense than water and slightly soluble in water. It is used as a feedstock for insecticides. [5]

    3 (CH 3 CO) 2 O + 1 C 3 H 5 (OH) 3 → 1 C 3 H 5 (OCOCH 3) 3 + 3 CH 3 CO 2 H. This synthesis has been conducted with catalytic sodium hydroxide and microwave irradiation to give a 99% yield of triacetin. [14] It has also been conducted with a cobalt(II) Salen complex catalyst supported by silicon dioxide and heated to 50 °C for 55 minutes to ...

  6. Polyglycerol polyricinoleate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyglycerol_polyricinoleate

    In chocolate, compound chocolate and similar coatings, PGPR is mainly used with another substance like lecithin [2] to reduce viscosity. It is used at low levels (below 0.5%), [ 3 ] [ 4 ] and works by decreasing the friction between the solid particles (e.g. cacao , sugar , milk ) in molten chocolate, reducing the yield stress so that it flows ...

    [23] 0.23 ppm of the earth's mass is water and 97.39% of the global water volume of 1.38 × 10 9 km 3 is found in the oceans. [ 84 ] Water is far more prevalent in the outer Solar System, beyond a point called the frost line , where the Sun's radiation is too weak to vaporize solid and liquid water (as well as other elements and chemical ...
