Compounding agents

Omission of the fluoro substituents at the 6 and 9 positions leads to the antiinflammatory compound agent budesonide (71). This compound is obtained by formation of the acetal of the 16,17 diol 70 with butyraldehyde. ... 

The increasing diversity of operations, new materials and processes and the constant demand for improved production efficiency can only be met by various additives and compounding agents being blended into the oil to enhance its performance. Additives tend to be expensive and the selection of enhanced cutting fluid is only justified by overall production economies. 

Recently, Lattimer et al. [22,95] advocated the use of mass spectrometry for direct analysis of nonvolatile compounding agents in polymer matrices as an alternative to extraction procedures. FAB-MS was thus applied as a means for surface desorption/ionisation of vulcanisates. FAB is often not as effective as other ionisation methods (El, Cl, FI, FD), and FAB-MS is not considered particularly useful for extracted rubber additives analysis compared to other methods that are available [36], The effectiveness of the FAB technique has been demonstrated for the analysis of a live-component additive mixture [96].

Agents may be solids, liquids, or gases. Many solid agents are actually salts of oily organic compounds. Agents may or may not have an odor.

Most other metals present in pharmaceuticals are present in sufficient concentrations that high sensitivity is not imperative and they may therefore be determined by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy. These products are extremely variable in composition but nonetheless yield easily to this type of analysis, which is generally unaffected by compounding agents such as binders or expanders. Thus, the elements Na, K, Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, Zn, and Mo are among those determinable by flame (51-53) and, recently, furnace (54) atomic absorption in multivitamin-mineral tablets. Chemical interactions between some metals dictate the use of an internal standard when several elements are present simultaneously. It should be noted here that a spark emission or ICP spectrometer equipped with an appropriate polychromator would have the advantage of simultaneous and therefore more rapid analysis in these multielemental products. These techniques have probably not been fully utilized in this regard. 

Combustible metals require the use of special dry compound agents for extinguishment and are applied manually with either hand scoops or handheld fire extinguishers. These agents are also sold under various proprietary names. Therefore, Table 7-7, which lists some selection parameters associated with these agents, also identifies these agents by their base component.

The timescale of the NR recrystallisation process strongly increases due to blending the NR with IR 305 and carbon black. This sensitivity of the NR recrystallisation for compounding agents offers the possibility to use this technique for mixing efficiency studies of NR based rubber compounds.

Both feed brine and depleted brine are subject to contamination by compounding agents and processing aids contained in plastic piping. In membrane-cell plant design, materials must be chosen with this in mind. Section 7.5.5.3 has already covered this subject in the comments on materials of construction and the possibility of recontamination. 

Recent approaches have centred on modification (by amine or amide, alkoxysilane, amine plus alkoxysilane, and epoxy) and compounding (assurance of reinforcement with polymer and compounding agents). 

Copolymerization of a polar monomer with SBR, chiefly in production of emulsion-polymerized SBR, is also being researched. In this approach the copolymer is combined with zinc white and fatty acid salts as compounding agents. This approach is claimed to prevent poor dispersion of the silica and to improve processability, and also to give a substantial improvement in heat emission, tensile strength and wear resistance. 

It is based primarily on the ability of aromatic C-nitroso compounds to attach themselves to diene polymers (Figure 11). When diisocyanates are also present, the pendant secondary aromatic amine is attacked with formation of a ureido bridge (Figure 12). Since isocyanates are both toxic and abortively reactive with moisture, it is convenient to prereact them with the o-nitrosophenol so that the compounding agent, which breaks up with heat, is actually a type of diurethane species (Figure 13).
