Hydrated water gel, or water beads. Water crystal gel or water beads or gel beads is any gel which absorbs and contains a large amount of water.Water gel is usually in spherical form and composed of a water-absorbing superabsorbent polymer (SAP, also known as slush powder in dry form) such as a polyacrylamide (frequently sodium polyacrylate).
Superabsorbent polymers are now commonly made from the polymerization of acrylic acid blended with sodium hydroxide in the presence of an initiator to form a poly-acrylic acid sodium salt (sometimes referred to as sodium polyacrylate). This polymer is the most common type of SAP made in the world today.
Nata de coco was invented in 1949 by Teódula Kalaw África, a Filipino chemist working for the National Coconut Corporation (now the Philippine Coconut Authority).It was originally conceived as an alternative to nata de piña, another gel-like Filipino dessert produced since the 18th century.
Potassium polyacrylate is a potassium salt of polyacrylic acid with the chemical formula [−CH 2 −CH(CO 2 K)−] n. As a type of superabsorbent polymer, it can absorb hundreds of times its original weight in purified water.
CMC powder is widely used in the ice cream industry, to make ice creams without churning or extremely low temperatures, thereby eliminating the need for conventional churners or salt ice mixes. [23] CMC is used in baking breads and cakes. The use of CMC gives the loaf an improved quality at a reduced cost by reducing the need for fat.
Coconut jelly may refer to: Young coconut meat Nata de coco , or "coconut gel", a chewy, translucent, jelly-like food product produced by the bacterial fermentation of coconut water
Tovex is a 50/50 aqueous solution of ammonium nitrate and methylammonium nitrate (sometimes also called monomethylamine nitrate, or PR-M), sensitized fuels, and other ingredients including sodium nitrate prills, finely divided (paint-grade) aluminum, finely divided coal, proprietary materials to make some grades cap sensitive, and thickening agents to enhance water resistance and to act as ...
Sodium cocoate is a mixture of fatty acid salts of coconut oil that is used in some soaps. [1] Sodium cocoate is produced by hydrolysis of the ester linkages in coconut oil with sodium hydroxide, a strong base. The CAS number for sodium cocoate is 61789-31-9.
