		Acetic Acid Acetic acid, CH₃COOH, also known as ethanoic acid, is an organic acid which gives vinegar its sour taste and pungent smell. Pure, water-free acetic acid (glacial acetic acid) is a colourless liquid that absorbs water from the environment (hygroscopy), and freezes at 16.7 °C (62 °F) to a colourless crystalline solid. It is a weak acid, in that it is only partially dissociated acid in aqueous solution.




		Acetone Acetone is the organic compound with the formula OC(CH₃)₂. This colorless, mobile, flammable liquid is the simplest example of the ketones.




		Activated Carbon Activated carbon, also called activated charcoal or activated coal, is a form of carbon that has been processed to make it extremely porous and thus to have a very large surface area available for adsorption or chemical reactions.




		Ammonium Sulfate (Tech and Agri Grade) Ammonium persulfate (NH₄)₂S₂O₈ is a strong oxidizing agent. It is very soluble in cold water, a large fall of temperature accompanying solution. It is a radical initiator. It is used to etch copper on printed circuit boards as an alternative to ferric chloride solution.^[1] It is also used along with tetramethylethylenediamine to catalyze the polymerization of acrylamide in making a polyacrylamide gel.




		Boric Acid Boric acid, also called boracic acid or orthoboric acid or Acidum Boricum, is a weak acid often used as an antiseptic, insecticide, flame retardant, in nuclear power plants to control the fission rate of uranium, and as a precursor of other chemical compounds. It exists in the form of colorless crystals or a white powder and dissolves in water. It has the chemical formula H₃BO₃, sometimes written B(OH)₃. When occurring as a mineral, it is called sassolite.




		Calcium Carbonate Calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the chemical formula CaCO₃. It is a common substance found in rock in all parts of the world, and is the main component of shells of marine organisms, snails, pearls, and eggshells.




		Calcium Chloride Calcium chloride, CaCl₂, is a common salt. It behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is solid at room temperature. It has several common applications such as brine for refrigeration plants, ice and dust control on roads, and in concrete. The anhydrous salt is also widely used as a desiccant, where it will absorb so much water that it will eventually dissolve in its own crystal lattice water. It can be produced directly from limestone, but large amounts are also produced as a by-product of the Solvay process. Because of its hygroscopic nature, the anhydrous form must be kept in tightly-sealed containers. It is used to turn kelp into a solid.




		Caustic Soda Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), also known as lye and caustic soda, is a caustic metallic base. Sodium hydroxide forms a strong alkaline solution when dissolved in a solvent such as water. However, only the hydroxide ion is basic. It is used in many industries, mostly as a strong chemical base in the manufacture of pulp and paper, textiles, drinking water, soaps and detergents and as a drain cleaner. Worldwide production in 1998 was around 45 million tonnes. Sodium hydroxide is a common base in chemical laboratories




		Citric Acid Citric acid is a weak organic acid, and it is a natural preservative and is also used to add an acidic, or sour, taste to foods and soft drinks. In biochemistry, it is important as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle and therefore occurs in the metabolism of virtually all living things. It can also be used as an environmentally benign cleaning agent.




		Formic Acid Formic acid (systematically called methanoic acid) is the simplest carboxylic acid. Its formula is HCOOH or CH₂O₂. It is an important intermediate in chemical synthesis and occurs naturally, most notably in the venom of bee and ant stings.




		High Density Polyethylene HDPE High-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polyethylene high-density (PEHD) is a polyethylene thermoplastic made from petroleum. It takes 1.75 kilograms of petroleum (in terms of energy and raw materials) to make one kilogram of HDPE. HDPE is commonly recycled, and has the number "2" as its recycling symbol. In 2007, the global HDPE market reached a volume of more than 30 million tons.^[1]




		Hydrochloric Acid (HCL) Hydrochloric acid is the solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl) in water. It is a highly corrosive, strong mineral acid and has major industrial uses. It is found naturally in gastric acid.




		Hydrogen Peroxide




		Nitric Acid Nitric acid (HNO₃), also known as *aqua fortis* and spirit of nitre, is a highly corrosive and toxic strong acid that can cause severe burns.




		Oxalic Acid Oxalic acid is the chemical compound with the formula H₂C₂O₄. This dicarboxylic acid is better described with the formula HOOCCOOH. It is a relatively strong organic acid, being about 3000 times as strong as acetic acid.




		Phosphoric Acid (3) Phosphoric acid, also known as orthophosphoric acid or phosphoric(V) acid, is a mineral (inorganic) acid having the chemical formula H₃PO₄.




		Phosphoric Acid 85%




		Poly Phosphoric Acid




		Potassium Chloride The chemical compound potassium chloride (KCl) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. In its pure state it is odorless. It has a white or colorless vitreous crystal, with a crystal structure that cleaves easily in three directions. Potassium chloride crystals are face-centered cubic. Potassium chloride is occasionally known as "muriate of potash," particularly when used as a fertilizer.




		Potassium Chloride - Drilling Grade




		Propylene Glycol Propylene glycol, known also by the systematic name propane-1,2-diol, is an organic compound (a diol alcohol), usually a faintly sweet, and colorless, nearly odorless, clear, viscous liquid that is hygroscopic and miscible with water, acetone, and chloroform.




		Propylene Glycol - Industrial Grade




		Propylene Glycol - USP




		Propylene Glycol (USP/ Kosher)




		Sodium Hydroxide Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), also known as lye and caustic soda, is a caustic metallic base. Sodium hydroxide forms a strong alkaline solution when dissolved in a solvent such as water. However, only the hydroxide ion is basic.




		Sodium Hydroxide - Liquid




		Sodium Hydroxide - USP, FCC, Tech grade




		Titanium Dioxide Titanium dioxide, also known as titanium(IV) oxide or titania, is the naturally occurring oxide of titanium, chemical formula TiO₂. When used as a pigment, it is called titanium white, Pigment White 6, or CI 77891.
