Kaolin

Kaolin is used in ceramics, medicine, coated paper, as a food additive in toothpaste, as a light diffusing material in white incandescent light bulbs, and in cosmetics. It is generally the main component in porcelain. It is also used in paint to extend titanium dioxide and modify gloss levels; in rubber for semi-reinforcing properties; and in adhesives to modify rheology. The largest use is in the production of paper, including ensuring the gloss on some grades of paper.

STARCH

Starch is the most important carbohydrate in the human diet and is contained in such staple foods as potatoes, wheat, maize (corn), rice, and cassava.It is used in food and industries.

Starch

Starch is the most important carbohydrate in the human diet and is contained in such staple foods as potatoes, wheat, maize (corn), rice, and cassava.It is used in food and industries. As an additive for food processing, food starches are typically used as thickeners and stabilizers in foods such as puddings, custards, soups, sauces, gravies, pie fillings, and salad dressings, and to make noodles and pastas.

Sunett

Sunett is a zero calorie, toothfriendly sweetener.It is 200 times sweeter than sucrose.

TRISYL

TRISYL silicas are synthetic amorphous micronized silica used for refining and processing of edible oils and fats to help improve quality, stability, and reduce neutral oil losses.In refining edible oils and fats,TRISYL silicas remove naturally contained and process-induced contaminants like soaps, phospholipids, and trace metals to ensure food safety and help improve quality and stability.It is recommended for use in all refining of animal, vegetable oils, and fats,used as an adsorbent agent for removing colloidal nickel and nickel soaps generated during hydrogenation. TRISYL silicas also can reduce costs by simplifying the refining process and helping to minimize the environmental footprint of your edible oil refining process. Positive impacts on sustainability are achieved by reducing the water needed after primary centrifuges and minimizing the need for bleaching earth.

Akucell

Akucell is the trademark for AkzoNobel's food-grade cellulose gums, which is the most comprehensive range in the world. Cellulose gum is an additive that is approved for use in any kind of processed food formulations and has a wide range of applications. In food formulations, Akucell cellulose gum significantly enhances quality by acting as a thickener and stabilizer and by controlling crystallization, moisture retention and fat uptake. Selecting the right ingredients is crucial to get the optimal composition for your product.

BC 2527

BC 2527 consists of a silicone antifoam absorbed on an inert powder which then remains in a free-flowing powder form. This is readily compounded with other powdered formulations to give foam control when that material is dispersed in water.

Calcium

Calcium is a alkaline earth metal, and is the fifth most abundant element by mass in the Earth's crust. It is essential for living organisms, particularly in cell physiology, where movement of the calcium ion Ca²⁺ into and out of the cytoplasm functions as a signal for many cellular processes. As a major material used in mineralization of bones and shells, calcium is the most abundant metal by mass in many animals. It is uesd as a reducing agent in the extraction of other metals, such as uranium, zirconium, and thorium, as a deoxidizer, desulfurizer, or decarbonizer for various ferrous and nonferrous alloys, and as an alloying agent used in the production of aluminium, beryllium, copper, lead, and magnesium alloys. It is also used in the making of cements and mortars to be used in construction and in the making of cheese, where calcium ions influence the activity of rennin in bringing about the coagulation of milk.

Camphor

Carvone

Carvone is a member of a family of chemicals called terpenoids. It is found naturally in many essential oils, but is most abundant in the oils from seeds of caraway and dill. It is used in the food and flavor industry.
