Butyric acid is used in the preparation of various butyrate esters. It is used to produce cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB), which is used in a wide variety of tools, paints, and coatings, and is more resistant to degradation than cellulose acetate. [30] CAB can degrade with exposure to heat and moisture, releasing butyric acid. [31]
Sodium oxybate is the sodium salt of γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB). Its systematic chemical name is sodium 4-hydroxybutanoate, though synonyms like sodium γ-hydroxybutyrate are commonly used. Its condensed structural formula is HOCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CO 2 Na (molecular formula: C 4 H 7 NaO 3) and its molar mass is 126.09 g mol −1. It is highly ...
Plant nutrition is the study of the chemical elements and compounds necessary for plant growth and reproduction, plant metabolism and their external supply. In its absence the plant is unable to complete a normal life cycle, or that the element is part of some essential plant constituent or metabolite .
Silver thiosulfate (STS, chemical formula Ag 2 S 2 O 3) is an inorganic chemical that can promote early flower growth and promote flower duration in a variety of plants. [2] [3]An aqueous solution of silver thiosulfate can be prepared by mixing solutions of sodium thiosulfate and silver nitrate.
Metformin is a prescription medication used to treat high blood sugar in those with type 2 diabetes who are resistant to the effects of insulin. It’s in a class of drugs known as biguanides.
Ashing of the plants converts some of this sodium into sodium carbonate (or "soda", in one of the old uses of the term). [citation needed] In the medieval and early post-medieval centuries, various glasswort plants were collected at tidal marshes and other saline places in the Mediterranean region. The collected plants were burned.
