  2. Propionic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propionic_acid

    Propionic acid inhibits the growth of mold and some bacteria at levels between 0.1 and 1% by weight. As a result, some propionic acid produced is consumed as a preservative for both animal feed and food for human consumption. For animal feed, it is used either directly or as its ammonium salt. This application accounts for about half of the ...

  3. List of water-miscible solvents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_water-miscible...

    The following compounds are liquid at room temperature and are completely miscible with water; ... formic acid: 64-18-6 C 5 H 6 O 2: furfuryl alcohol: 98-00-0 C 3 H 8 ...

  4. Propionate fermentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propionate_fermentation

    Pyruvate is then converted into propionic acid through multiple reduction steps in the Wood-Werkman cycle. The resulting products besides propionate include acetic acid, carbon dioxide, and succinic acid. In Prevotella, the redox reaction is supported with RNF oxidoreductase to metabolize carbohydrates into glucose, succinate, and finally ...

  5. Propionic anhydride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propionic_anhydride

    Propionic anhydride is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3 CH 2 CO) 2 O. This simple acid anhydride is a colourless liquid. It is a widely used reagent in organic synthesis as well as for producing specialty derivatives of cellulose.

  6. Miscibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscibility

    Diesel fuel is immiscible in water. The bright rainbow pattern is the result of thin-film interference. Miscibility (/ ˌ m ɪ s ɪ ˈ b ɪ l ɪ t i /) is the property of two substances to mix in all proportions (that is, to fully dissolve in each other at any concentration), forming a homogeneous mixture (a solution).

  7. Vinyl propionate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_propionate

    Since vinyl alcohol is not available, vinyl propionate is produced by the addition of propionic acid to acetylene. The reaction is catalyzed by carbon and zinc salts. The reaction is catalyzed by carbon and zinc salts.

  8. Azeotrope tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azeotrope_tables

    This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.

  9. Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_dissociation_constant

    A broader definition of acid dissociation includes hydrolysis, in which protons are produced by the splitting of water molecules. For example, boric acid (B(OH) 3) produces H 3 O + as if it were a proton donor, [11] but it has been confirmed by Raman spectroscopy that this is due to the hydrolysis equilibrium: [12]
