Baby Milk

Amphetamines (speed sulph, sulphate, uppers, wake-ups, billy whizz, whizz, whites, base) are synthetic stimulants which as medicines have been formed into a variety of tablets. Their current medical use is very limited and in fact only dexamphetamine sulphate, Dexedrine, is now available for use solely in the treatment of narcolepsy. The only other amphetamine available for medical use is methylphenidate (Ritalin) for the treatment of attention deficit syndrome in children. As a street drug, amphetamine usually comes as a white, grey, yellowish or pinky powder. The purity rate of street powders is less than 10%, the rest being made up of milder stimulants such as caffeine, other drugs such as paracetamol or substances like glucose, dried baby milk, flour or talcum powder.

Uses The electrical and electronics industries are the largest users. It is used also in blender housings, kitchen utensils and babies milk bottles. The physical properties are improved by stretching to form crystalline polymers like "Lexan". 

A German study in which 22 samples of baby milk, baby food, mothers milk and cows milk were analysed for their content of phthalates found a relatively narrow range of 50-210 mg/kg di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, with hardly any differences between the food items (Gruber et a/., 1998).

PENT-8 Reusable Baby Milk Bottle. Although polycarbonate (PC) has traditionally been the preferred alternative to glass in reusable baby milk bottles, health concerns with PC usage have been raised in some countries about possible presence of residual bisphenol A. The use of a high PEN-containing copolymer, PENT-8, has been demonstrated to provide a bisphenol A free substitute for PC. In Korea, Kolon has found that PENT-8 has adequate Tg (123"C) to withstand required sterilization in boiling water (20). At the same time, the lower melting point of PENT-8 (250°C) relative to PEN (268°C) makes it processable at PET melt conditions.

Polyisoprene is a thermoset elastomer and has high tensile properties and its main advantage over natural rubber is that it is generally easier to process. It is used for the manufacture of rubber bands, baby milk bottle teats, sporting goods and engine mounts.
