KESSCOIPM ISOPROPYL MYRISTATE Liquid IPM has a dry, velvety, non-oily feel due to Its ready absorption Into skin. Generally used in premium formulations for velvety emolliency. 

Premium formulation for fungicide, miticide, and nutritional use on numerous crops... 

Com oil s flavor, color, stabiHty, retained clarity at refrigerator temperatures, polyunsaturated fatty acid composition, and vitamin E content make it a premium vegetable oil. The major uses are frying or salad appHcations (50%) and margarine formulations (35%). 

Antiwear premium hydrauHc fluids represent the largest volume of hydrauHc fluids used. Shortly after their introduction in 1960, a second product group was formulated, characterized by the same antiwear characteristics but having lower pour points and higher viscosity indexes. These were formulated for use in mobile and marine appHcations subject to temperature extremes. 

The fluid is formulated from a premium mineral od-base stock that is blended with the required additive to provide antiwear, mst and corrosion resistance, oxidation stabdity, and resistance to bacteria or fungus. The formulated base stock is then emulsified with ca 40% water by volume to the desired viscosity. Unlike od-in-water emulsions the viscosity of this type of fluid is dependent on both the water content, the viscosity of the od, and the type of emulsifier utilized. If the water content of the invert emulsion decreases as a result of evaporation, the viscosity decreases likewise, an increase in water content causes an increase in the apparent viscosity of the invert emulsion at water contents near 50% by volume the fluid may become a viscous gel. A hydrauHc system using a water-in-od emulsion should be kept above the freezing point of water if the water phase does not contain an antifreeze. Even if freezing does not occur at low temperatures, the emulsion may thicken, or break apart with subsequent dysfunction of the hydrauHc system. 

Except for fire-resistant fluids, synthetic lubricants have not captured a significant portion of the general lubricant or hydrauhc markets, primarily because the cost is two to four times that of other premium lubricants. However, development of satisfactorily formulated products continues. 

Although the black inks are predominantly based on mineral oil, colors are almost entirely formulated with a soya bean oil vehicle. The superior printabHity of colors and economics of blacks guide the selection of product types by the market. Recently developed low mb blacks offer smudge-resistant print. Their share of the market is growing rapidly. The low mb characteristics of these inks are produced through the use of low stmcture carbon black. The addition of resin further enhances the smudge resistance but imposes a premium price. 

A premium antiscalent product in this group is Belros 435 from Great Lakes Chemical Corporation (originally the brand was owned by Ciba-Geigy, then FMC). Belros 435 is a 35% w/w, phos-phinoacrylic acid-based product, similar in chemistry to the Belclene 161 (also from Great Lakes) used as a high-stability dispersant in BW internal treatment formulations. 

Under utilities should be included the costs for items that enter the plant but do not enter directly into the material formulation of the products or by-products. This includes coal, oil, gas, electricity, water, air, and inert gases. The amounts of cooling, process, and potable water should each be specified. Potable water is water that can be used for drinking and food preparation. It is usually purchased from a nearby municipality. The average electrical power required, peak power required, and demand power need to be calculated. Demand power is the number of kilowatts of energy that the utility company agrees to supply on an uninterrupted basis. A premium price is charged for this power. 

Wash performance is crucial for the consumer. Stain removal, anti-graying, and color stability with no dye transfer are all important, as these are visible parameters that inform the next purchase choice. Less visible is scale inhibition to protect the machine. The laundry market is highly competitive, so that although chelants are only a small part of the formulation, purchasers want to keep the cost of this part of a package to a minimum. As a result, they are generally only willing to pay a small premium for biodegradability of alternative chelants... 

Polyester resins possess premium performance properties such as exterior durability, gloss, flexibility hardness, color stability, and versatility of cure. Polyesters are used in product finishes for household appliances, food and beverage containers, aircraft and equipment, automotive primers and bake coats, metal furniture, and fixtures. For example, water-soluble saturated polyesters are used in industrial baking paints, and in combination with melamine resin. Polyesters can be formulated in high solids and waterborne formulations to meet the requirements for the low VOC coatings being mandated by the EPA. 

Powder-grade PVDF is the key ingredient in the formulation of premium architectural coatings. The primary components of a PVDF-based coating system are 1) PVDF resin (typically 15-30%) 2) acrylic resin (typically 6-15%) 3) pigment (typically 10-20%i) 4) organic solvent (typically 40-65%i) and 5) other additives (typically 2-5%i), such as UV absorbers, antisettling additives, surfactants, etc. ... 

Particle size of the polymer is another important factor. The finer the particle size, the faster the rate of hydration of the polymer and hence better the control of drng release [53]. Coarser polymer particles used in a direct compression formulation have been reported to resnlt in faster drug release than finer particles [54]. The coarser the particle size, the slower the hydration rate and gel layer formation. The way to circnmvent this problem is the use of fine particle size grades of the polymer. For example, Methocel K Premium CR grades have more than 90% of particles below 149 [tm or 100 mesh. 

During the discovery phase, when availability of compound is at a premium, the formulation of a simple injectable product for use in animal studies can be problematical. If a drug candidate required for formulation as a parenteral product is non-ionizable, lipophihc or does not form a water-soluble salt with acceptable properties, solubilization by use of cosolvents should be considered as the next option. In cases...
