  2. Methyl methacrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_methacrylate

    MMA is a raw material for the manufacture of other methacrylates. These derivatives include ethyl methacrylate (EMA), butyl methacrylate (BMA) and 2-ethyl hexyl methacrylate (2-EHMA). Methacrylic acid (MAA) is used as a chemical intermediate as well as in the manufacture of coating polymers, construction chemicals and textile applications.

  3. Neutral fat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_fat

    Triglycerides are formed from the esterification of 3 molecules of fatty acids with one molecule of trihydric alcohol, glycerol (glycerine or trihydroxy propane). In the process, 3 molecules of water are eliminated. The word "triglyceride" refers to the number of fatty acids esterified to one molecule of glycerol.

  4. Methacrylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methacrylic_acid

    Methacrylic acid, abbreviated MAA, is an organic compound with the formula CH 2 =C(CH 3)CO 2 H. This colorless, viscous liquid is a carboxylic acid with an acrid unpleasant odor.

  5. Concanavalin A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concanavalin_A

    Concanavalin A (ConA) is a lectin (carbohydrate-binding protein) originally extracted from the jack-bean (Canavalia ensiformis).It is a member of the legume lectin family. It binds specifically to certain structures found in various sugars, glycoproteins, and glycolipids, mainly internal and nonreducing terminal α-D-mannosyl and α-D-glucosyl groups.

  6. Proanthocyanidin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proanthocyanidin

    Condensed tannins may be characterised by a number of techniques including depolymerisation, asymmetric flow field flow fractionation or small-angle X-ray scattering.. DMACA is a dye that is particularly useful for localization of proanthocyanidin compounds in plant histology.

  7. Dry matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_matter

    The nutrient or mineral content of foods, animal feeds or plant tissues are often expressed on a dry matter basis, i.e. as a proportion of the total dry matter in the material. For example, a 138-gram apple contains 84% water (116 g water and 22 g dry matter per apple). [ 5 ]

  8. Superabsorbent polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superabsorbent_polymer

    Solution-based polymerization is commonly used today for SAP manufacture of co-polymers, particularly those with the toxic acrylamide monomer. This process is efficient and generally has a lower capital cost base. The solution process uses a water-based monomer solution to produce a mass of reactant polymerized gel.

  9. Unsaturated fat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsaturated_fat

    An unsaturated fat is a fat or fatty acid in which there is at least one double bond within the fatty acid chain. A fatty acid chain is monounsaturated if it contains one double bond, and polyunsaturated if it contains more than one double bond.
