Today, looking back at 1953 home prices and apartment rents, hotel guides and restaurant menus, price lists for cars and for car repairs, we are inclined to smile wistfully. Until we remind ourselves of how much lower incomes were then, the era of the two dollar steak, the two hundred dollar city apartment rent, and the two thousand dollar car looks like a golden age indeed. Yet over the 40-year time span in which prices for most consumer goods and services have multiplied manifold, the raw material cost of an ounce of perfume and the cost of perfuming a kilo of detergent or any other personal or household product has remained essentially the same. 

Historically, several adhesives have been derived from natural carbohydrate polymers. In a few cases, such polymers have been utilized because of their own particular adhesive properties. However, natural carbohydrate polymers are usually used as modifiers for more costly synthetic resins, especially as thickeners, colloidal stabilizers, and flow controllers. Adhesive uses for natural gums include pressure-sensitive tape, denture adhesives, pharmaceutical tablet binders, household products, and label pastes [17]. 

Amino acid surfactants (AAS), both natural and synthetic types, have been the subject of many smdies, due mostly to their huge potential application in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, household, and food products. The AAS are derived from acidic, basic, or neutral amino acids. Amino acids such as glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, leucine, serine, proline, and protein hydrolysates have been used as starting materials to synthesize AAS commercially and experimentally. Methods of preparation include chemical, enzymatic, and chemoenzymic processes, although chemical processes have been prevalent due to their relatively low cost of production. In recent years, more research papers have focused on the use of enzymatic methods to synthesize AAS. It is our opinion that the enzymatic approach would be more attractive to manufacturers in the near future. 

Pure a-terpineol has a delicate sweet floral, lilac-type odor (though only present at very low levels, if at all, in lilac). Its odor qualities are greatly affected by impurities, and many fragrance houses buy cheap grades and redistill it to their perfumery quality. The monoterpenoid hydrocarbons tend to give a pine character, the other alcohols and the phenols give a medicinal quality. Low-cost, ready availability and stability to air, soap and household products make it a very useful ingredient. 

Although new materials such as plastics and composites have replaced metals in many industrial and household products, metals will continue to be used if their unique combination of properties such as high strength and high temperature resistance are coupled with low cost. 

The term f is used to describe a mixture of single synthetic chemicals, - essential oils, absolutes, - resinoids and other extraction products finm natural sources. Such mixtures are then incorporated in all kinds of cosmetic and household products, such as - soaps, - detergents, air fresheners, toiletries and shampoos, or they are diluted with alcohol and water to become ->perfumes. What raw materials are combined in which proportion depends on the base in which f are going to be useti the desired odor, persistence and the cost of the finished product. Originally entirely composed of natural raw materials, f. today are always mixtures of synthetic and natural raw materials. Apart from economic reasons, such as constant and generally lower prices, constant quality, almost imlimited supplies and more predictable stability, synthetic raw materials allow the creation of novel notes and provide, if they are captive/patented developments, a competitive advantage for a particular f - supplier. 

Alkylbeazeaesulfoaates are effective surfactants, which respond well to builders and foam boosters ia detergeat formulatioas. These properties, together with low cost, availabiUty, and consistent quaUty, account for their dominant position ia household lauadry products (62,63). 

So when someone warns that there is antifreeze in your toothpaste, ask which antifreeze. Some are illegal adulterants added by criminal cost-cutters, and their products are quickly recalled. Others (like glycerin, propylene glycol, or salt) are generally recognized as safe and are reasonable household ingredients. 

Indirect household costs summarize all lost opportunities. During the time of illness, a patient and a caring relative cannot work. Therefore, wage-earners lose salaries as well as the economy production force. Sick parents do not have time to take care of their children so that their education will suffer. Therefore, morbidity leads to indirect costs. The term socio-economic costs is used for the total of direct and indirect costs as both have to be shouldered by the society. 

Two distinct and simple business strategies for manufacturing household furniture may be described as the provision of either low-cost, short lifespan, or expensive, long lifespan products. The decision on which strategy to take is made at the conception stage of the business and may depend upon existing supply chain links, market opportunities or available workforce skill set for example. It is unlikely that such a strategic decision would ever be made... 

Whether filtering material through a cotton-filter or a coffee filter it helps if the thinner parts of the solution are filtered first, followed by the mushy and more bulky components (which may clog the pores of your filters as you strain.) The better your filtration, the more rapid and efficient your emulsions, also resulting in a cleaner product. Cotton must be specifically used. Other fibers have the potential to react with our solvents. A tea strainer (wire strain) can be a simple way to separate bulk ruffage. Another way to improve this method is to use a vacuum filter. There are several varieties, the most affordable being a water vacuum filter that attaches to a household faucet. These cost about 30.00 and are very quick, useful and effective. 

There is only limited scope for growth in the European household appliance industry, as could be shown for large appliances. While quality has been improved -e.g. improved energy efficiency - average real prices of the appliances have continued to drop over the past years. As a consequence, pressure to cut costs has been building up and led to the transfer of production facilities to countries with lower labor costs [3],... 

Several factors contribute to the total production costs of household appliances ...
