Emulsions Oil in Water Claims Emulsifiers > Emulsifiers O/W (Oil in Water) Solubilizers Appearance Flakes Product Status COMMERCIAL Product information INGREDIENT IDENTIFICATION Name IMWITOR® 960 K Segment Personal care INCI name Glyceryl Stearate SE An oily kind of ingredient that can magically blend with water all by itself. This is called self-emulsifying and SE in its name stands for that. The difference between "normal" Glyceryl Stearate and this guy is that the SE grade contains a small amount of water-loving soap molecules, such as sodium stearate. This increases Glyceryl Stearate's affinity for water and gives it stronger emulsifying abilities. What Is It? Glyceryl Stearate and Glyceryl Stearate SE are esterification products of glycerin and stearic acid. Glyceryl Stearate is a white or cream-colored wax-like solid. IMWITOR 960 K is a "Self-Emulsifying" form of Glyceryl Stearate that also contains a small amount of sodium and or potassium stearate. In cosmetics and personal care products, Glyceryl Stearate is widely used and can be found in lotions, creams, powders, skin cleansing products, makeup bases and foundations, mascara, eye shadow, eyeliner, hair conditioners and rinses, and suntan and sunscreen products. Why is it used in cosmetics and personal care products? Glyceryl Stearate acts as a lubricant on the skin's surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance. It also slows the loss of water from the skin by forming a barrier on the skin's surface. Glyceryl Stearate, and Glyceryl Stearate SE help to form emulsions by reducing the surface tension of the substances to be emulsified. Scientific Facts: Glyceryl Stearate is made by reacting glycerin with stearic acid, a fatty acid obtained from animal and vegetable fats and oils. IMWITOR 960 K is produced by reacting an excess of stearic acid with glycerin. The excess stearic acid is then reacted with potassium and/or sodium hydroxide yielding a product that contains Glyceryl Stearate as well as potassium stearate and/or sodium stearate. Oil-Soluble, Self-Emulsifying Water-in-Oil Emulsifier IMWITOR 960 K is classified as : Emulsifying CAS Number 11099-07-3 EINECS/ELINCS No: 234-325-6 COSING REF No: 76256 Chem/IUPAC Name: Octadecanoic acid, reaction products with 1,2,3-propanetriol (1:1), neutralized WHAT IS GLYCERYL STEARATE? Glyceryl Stearate, also referred to as Glyceryl Monostearate, is a fatty acid derived from vegetable oil, Soy Oil, or Palm Kernel Oil; however, it is also naturally occurring in the human body. This wax-like substance appears white or cream in color and is produced when Glycerin and Stearic Acid undergo esterification. Traditionally, it is used in formulations for its emulsifying properties. Glyceryl Stearate SE also contains Sodium Stearate and/or Potassium Stearate. The “SE” of Glyceryl Stearate SE stands for “Self-Emulsifying,” as it is a self-emulsifying form of Glyceryl Stearate. HOW DOES GLYCERYL STEARATE WORK? When applied topically, its Glycerol constituent makes Glyceryl Stearate SE a fast-penetrating emollient that helps to create a protective barrier on the surface of the skin. This helps retain hydration and slow the loss of moisture. This reduced rate of water evaporation helps to lubricate, condition, soften, and smoothe the skin. Its protective properties extend to its antioxidant qualities, which help protect the skin against damage caused by free radicals. When added to natural formulations, Glyceryl Stearate and Glyceryl Stearate SE have stabilizing effects on the final product, which means it helps the other ingredients in the formulation to continue functioning effectively in order to go on exhibiting their beneficial properties. In this way, it helps to balance the product’s pH value and thereby prevents the product from becoming overly acidic or alkaline. Furthermore, it helps increase shelf life, prevents products from freezing or from developing crusts on their surfaces, and it helps lessen the greasy nature of some oils that may be added to cosmetics formulations. In formulations that are oil-based, the thickening properties of Glyceryl Stearate SE help to scale down the need for co-emulsifiers and, in emulsions with big water phases, Glyceryl Stearate SE can help develop liquid crystal phases as well as crystalline gel phases. As an opacifier, it makes transparent or translucent preparations opaque, thus protecting them from or increasing their resistance to being penetrated by visible light. This also helps to boost or balance the appearance of pigments and to improve the density of the final product for a luxuriously smooth and creamy texture. APPLICATIONS FOR GLYCERYL STEARATE SEIMWITOR 960 K must be added to formulations in their heated oil phases. The higher the concentration of Glyceryl Stearate SE, the thicker the end product will be.

Inositol is a vitamin-like substance.
Inositol is found in many plants and animals.

Inositol is also produced in the human body and can be made in a laboratory.
Inositol can be found in many forms (called isomers).

The most common forms are myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol.
Inositol is used to for metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Inositol's also used for many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support most of these uses.

Inositol might balance certain chemicals in the body to possibly help with mental conditions such as panic disorder, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Inositol might also help insulin work better.
This might help with conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome or diabetes during pregnancy.

Inositol is a substance found naturally in cantaloupe, citrus fruit, and many fiber-rich foods (such as beans, brown rice, corn, sesame seeds, and wheat bran).
Inositol is also sold in supplement form and used as a complementary therapy to treat a wide range of medical conditions, including metabolic and mood disorders.

Inositol is often referred to as vitamin B8, but Inositol is not actually a vitamin.
Inositol's a type of sugar that influences the insulin response and several hormones associated with mood and cognition.
Inositol also has antioxidant properties that fight the damaging effects of free radicals in the brain, circulatory system, and other body tissues.

D-chiro-inositol, inositol hexaphosphate (often referred to as "IP6") and the compound myo-inositol are the most widely used inositol supplements.
They are generally considered safe if taken appropriately.

Inositol is a word that collectively refers to molecules with a similar structure, a collection of nine stereoisomers.
While the term 'inositol' is used commonly with dietary supplements, Inositol usually refers to a specific stereoisomer called myo-inositol.

Inositols are pseudovitamin compounds that are falsely said to belong to the B-complex family, and are found in most foods but in highest levels in whole grains and citrus fruits.
Myo-inositol shows the most promise as a dietary supplement for promoting female fertility, restoring insulin sensitivity in instances of resistance (type II diabetes and polycystic ovarian syndrome being the most well investigated), and for reducing anxiety as well.

Due to the mixed benefits to insulin resistance and fertility, myo-inositol is considered a good treatment for PCOS in women.
Inositol also holds some promise as an anti-depressant (although not as impressive as Inositols anxiolytic and anti-panic effects) and against some other conditions associated with anxiety such as panic disorders and binge eating.

Inositol is relatively ineffective for schizophrenia and autism, and has failed in treating PTSD despite Inositols anti-panic effects.
In part because of Inositols benefits to fertility and PCOS, as well as the anxiolytic effects potentially helping symptoms of PMS (dysphoria and anxiety mostly), myo-inositol is sometimes referred to as a general female health supplement.

At times, the anti-depressant effects associated with this supplement seem to only work in females with males having no benefit.
Inositol is a very safe supplement to ingest, and all side-effects associated with myo-inositol are merely mild gastrointestinal distress from high doses.
High doses (usually in the 12-18g range) are required for any neurological effects while lower doses (2-4g) are sufficient for fertility and insulin sensitizing effects.

Inositol is a type of sugar molecule, similar to glucose, but with several substantially different biological functions.
Inositol is produced by the body and is found naturally in foods.

Inositol has been studied extensively for use as a dietary supplement due to Inositols many potential health benefits.
Fertility specialists worldwide are keenly interested in inositol because research indicates Inositol can encourage PCOS patients to ovulate regularly and improve their chances of achieving pregnancy.

Inositol is also a component of phospholipids and, similar to choline, results in a fatty liver, if insufficient in supply.
Inositol is synthesized from glucose-6-phosphate after cyclization.

In some animals, particularly gerbils and hamsters, there is a nutritional need for inositol when they are given diets containing coconut oil.
Myoinositol is plentiful in foodstuffs.

The estimated daily intake for large animals can be as high as 1 or 2 g per day.
Inositol is particularly important in cellular signal transduction and phospholipid assembly.

Plasma levels of inositol are increased during renal disease and nephrectomy.
The presence of myoinositol hexabisphosphate (InsP6) in biological fluids (blood, urine, saliva, interstitial fluid) of animals has been clearly demonstrated.

The existence of intracellular InsP6 in mammalian cells has also been established.
A relationship between InsP6 ingestion and the InsP6 distribution in various tissues exists.
Whereas intracellular inositol depends on endogenous synthesis, depletion of extracellular InsP6 occurs at high rates when InsP6-poor diets are consumed.

Consequently, there are probably health benefits that are linked to dietary inositol and InsP6 intake.
The suggestion that inositol is important in young animals came from studies carried out throughout the 1970s and 1980s.

In particular, Inositol was noted that female gerbils fed a diet containing high coconut oil (relatively saturated) develop an intestinal lipodystrophy that is not seen in animals fed a diet containing 20% safflower oil (relatively unsaturated) or a diet of 20% coconut oil supplemented with 0.1% inositol.
The level of inositol in the intestinal tissue of animals fed the coconut oil diet not supplemented with inositol has been shown to decrease.
Clearance of lipid (i.e., resolution of the lipodystrophy) was dependent on inositol.

Inositol is a natural molecule found in the phospholipids of cell membranes, in the lipoproteins of the plasma and, in the form of phosphate, in the cell nucleus.
When we talk about inositol, we actually refer to a group of nine different stereoisomers, so Inositol would be more correct to use the plural “Inositols”.
Among these, however, the term inositol is generally used to refer to the most bioavailable type, myo-inositol.

Inositol may also be effective as a supplemental treatment for the below conditions:
Schizophrenia
Alzheimer’s Disease
Autism
Depression
Diabetic Nerve Pain
Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Cancer
Hair Growth
High Cholesterol
Insomnia
Fat Metabolization
Sources of Inositol

As previously mentioned, inositol is found in naturally in certain foods but in fairly low levels.
The highest levels of inositol are usually found in whole grains and citrus fruits.

Common Food Sources:
Oranges
Grapefruit
Dried prunes
Great northern beans
Navy beans
Stone ground wheat
Bran flakes

Inositol is sometimes marketed as vitamin B8 – however, so is a substance called AMP (adenosine monophosphate).
Be sure to look for supplements specifically labeled inositol or myo-inositol.

Applications of Inositol:
Inositol should not be routinely implemented for the management of preterm babies who have or are at a risk of infant respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
Noteworthily, myo-inositol helps prevent neural tube defects with particular efficacy in combination with folic acid.

Inositol is considered a safe and effective treatment for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Inositol works by increasing insulin sensitivity, which helps to improve ovarian function and reduce hyperandrogenism.

Inositol is also shown to reduce the risk of metabolic disease in people with PCOS.
In addition, thanks to Inositols role as FSH second messenger, myo-inositol is effective in restoring FSH/LH ratio and menstrual cycle regularization.

myo-Inositol's role as FSH second messenger leads to a correct ovarian follicle maturation and consequently to a higher oocyte quality.
Improving the oocyte quality in both women with or without PCOS, myo-inositol can be considered as a possible approach for increasing the chance of success in assisted reproductive technologies.

In contrast, D-chiro-inositol can impair oocyte quality in a dose-dependent manner.
The high level of DCI seems to be related to elevated insulin levels retrieved in about 70% of PCOS women.
In this regard, insulin stimulates the irreversible conversion of myo-inositol to D-chiro-inositol causing a drastic reduction of myo-inositol.

Myo-Inositol is a growth factor for animals and microorganisms.
Inositol is the most abundant form of polyols that serves as a structural element of secondary messengers in eukaryotic cells.

Inositol is used as an adulterant in many illegal drugs like cocaine and methamphetamine.
Further, Inositol is used as a stand-in for cocaine on television and film.

Health Benefits of Inositol:

Alternative health providers recommend inositol supplements for a wide range of health conditions, including:
Anxiety
Depression
Diabetes
High cholesterol
Metabolic syndrome
Panic disorder
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

Inositol, or more precisely myo-inositol, is a carbocyclic sugar that is abundant in the brain and other mammalian tissues.
Inositol mediates cell signal transduction in response to a variety of hormones, neurotransmitters, and growth factors and participates in osmoregulation.

Inositol is a sugar alcohol with half the sweetness of sucrose (table sugar).
Inositol is made naturally in humans from glucose.

A human kidney makes about two grams per day.
Other tissues synthesize Inositol too, and the highest concentration is in the brain, where Inositol plays an important role by making other neurotransmitters and some steroid hormones bind to their receptors.

Inositol is promoted as a dietary supplement in the management of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
However, there is only evidence of very low quality for Inositols efficacy in increasing fertility in women with PCOS.

In addition, inositol is believed by some to slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease and prevent certain cancers.
Some people also use inositol to promote hair growth or overcome insomnia.

Research, however, is lacking.
According to the latest research, inositol may be beneficial for some disorders, including mental health issues, PCOS, and metabolic disorders.

Mood and Anxiety Disorders:
Inositol is believed to improve depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders by stimulating the production of the "feel-good" hormones serotonin and dopamine.
The hypothesis is largely supported by research in which myo-inositol concentrations in blood is suggested a reliable marker for clinical depression.

The benefits have mostly been seen in people with panic disorder (PD) in whom depression is common.
A small study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology investigated the effect of myo-inositol on 20 people with PD.

After being provided a daily 18-gram dose of myo-inositol for four weeks, the participants were given a daily 150-mg dose of Luvox (fluvoxamine)—a commonly prescribed psychiatric drug—for the four weeks.
When compared to a matched set of individuals not given myo-inositol, those who did had an average of 2.4 fewer panic attacks per week.

A number of other studies have investigated the use of inositol with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) used to treat a variety of depressive and anxiety disorders.
The results have thus far been inconclusive.

While an earlier double-blind study found that a daily 12-gram dose of inositol improved depression scores compared to people provided a placebo, the results have not been replicated elsewhere.
In addition to panic disorder, inositol may be useful in treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) given Inositol effect on serotonin and dopamine levels.

Metabolic Disorders:
There is evidence to suggest inositol can correct may metabolic disorders that contribute to the development of high blood pressure, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.
A 2016 pilot study published in the International Journal of Endocrinology reported that people with type 2 diabetes given myo-inositol and d-chiro-inositol daily along with their anti-diabetes drugs had a significant drop in their fasting blood glucose (192.6 mg/dL down to 160.9 mg/dL) and A1C (8.6 percent down to 7.7 percent) after three months.

Another small study published in the journal Menopause suggested that myo-inositol may aid in the treatment of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women.
According to the research, women assigned to six months of myo-inositol supplements experienced significantly greater improvements in blood pressure and cholesterol levels than women provided a placebo.

When treated with myo-inositol, women with metabolic syndrome experienced an 11 percent drop in diastolic blood pressure, a 20 percent drop in triglycerides, and a 22 percent increase in "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
All of these values translate to an improvement of metabolic syndrome as well as a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS):
D-chiro-inositol may help manage PCOS, according to a small study published in Endocrine Practice.
For this study, 20 women with PCOS were given either a placebo or 6 grams of D-chiro-inositol once daily for six to eight weeks.

The results revealed that D-chiro-inositol helped treat several abnormalities associated with PCOS, including high blood pressure and elevated levels of blood fats.
In addition, elevated testosterone levels (consistent with PCOS-related hormone imbalances) decreased by 73 percent compared to 0 percent for those given a placebo.
Generally speaking, a normalization of hormonal balances translates to an improvement of PCOS symptoms.

Other Benefits of Inositol:
Inositol has also been found to reduce psoriasis symptoms in people taking lithium, a drug commonly prescribed to treat bipolar disorder, depression, schizophrenia, and eating disorders.
Depending on the usage, lithium-induced psoriasis can affect anywhere from 3 percent to 45 percent of users.

Inositols and PCOS:
While the research is promising, Inositol's important to understand the basics of inositol as Inositol applies to PCOS.
Here’s what to know, but remember to speak to your doctor before taking any supplements.

Inositols such as myo- and d-chiro inositol (DCI) are considered members of the B-vitamin group, but are in fact carbohydrates (sugars) that also possess antioxidant properties.
Inositol is found in healthier foods such as fruits, beans, grains, and nuts, though Inositol is also made by the body.

Myo and DCI work as secondary messengers relaying signals involved in insulin regulation.
Inositol is believed that women with PCOS may have a defect in the body’s ability to convert myo into DCI, which contributes to insulin resistance and infertility.
Supplementing with inositol is well tolerated (no gastrointestinal side effects like those associated with metformin) and has been shown to improve insulin levels and reduce intense cravings.

Inositol hexaphosphate may be useful in reducing side effects from chemotherapy.
Inositol hexaphosphate (IP6) is a carbohydrate found naturally in many plants and mammalian cells, where Inositol performs important messenger roles and affects numerous cellular processes.

Inositol was shown to have anticancer and anti-angiogenic effects.
Small studies of breast cancer patients showed that IP6 may reduce chemotherapy-induced side effects.

Myo-inositol may also have chemopreventive effects in some patients with chronic lung disease.
Large-scale studies are needed to confirm these effects.

Commonly Known As:
inositol
D-chiro-inositol
inositol hexaphosphate (or "IP6")
myo-inositol

Overview:
myo-Inositol plays an important role as the structural basis for a number of secondary messengers in eukaryotic cells, the various inositol phosphates.
In addition, inositol serves as an important component of the structural lipids phosphatidylinositol (PI) and Inositols various phosphates, the phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) lipids.

Inositol or Inositols phosphates and associated lipids are found in many foods, in particular fruit, especially cantaloupe and oranges.
In plants, the hexaphosphate of inositol, phytic acid or Inositols salts, the phytates, serve as phosphate stores in seed, for example in nuts and beans.

Phytic acid also occurs in cereals with high bran content.
Phytate is, however, not directly bioavailable to humans in the diet, since Inositol is not digestible.

Some food preparation techniques partly break down phytates to change this.
However, inositol in the form of glycerophospholipids, as found in certain plant-derived substances such as lecithins, is well absorbed and relatively bioavailable.

myo-Inositol (free of phosphate) was once considered a member of the vitamin B complex, called Vitamin B8 in this context.
However, because Inositol is produced by the human body from glucose, Inositol is not an essential nutrient.

Isomers and structure of Inositol:
The isomer myo-inositol is a meso compound, and hence optically inactive, because Inositol has a plane of symmetry.
For this reason, meso-inositol is an obsolete name for this compound.

Besides myo-inositol, the other naturally occurring stereoisomers are scyllo-, muco-, D-chiro-, and neo-inositol, although they occur in minimal quantities in nature.
The other possible isomers are L-chiro-, allo-, epi-, and cis-inositol.
As their names denote, L- and D-chiro inositol are the only pair of inositol enantiomers, but they are enantiomers of each other, not of myo-inositol.

Biosynthesis of Inositol:
myo-Inositol is synthesized from glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) in two steps.
First, G6P is isomerised by an inositol-3-phosphate synthase enzyme (for example, ISYNA1) to myo-inositol 1-phosphate, which is then dephosphorylated by an inositol monophosphatase enzyme (for example, IMPA1) to give free myo-inositol.

In humans, most inositol is synthesized in the kidneys, followed by testicles, typically in amounts of a few grams per day.
At the peripheral level, myo-inositol is converted to D-chiro-inositol by a specific epimerase.

The activity of this epimerase is insulin dependent.
Worthy of note, only a small quantity of myo-inositol is converted into D-chiro-inositol and the conversion is irreversible.

Inositol, phosphatidylinositol and some of their mono- and polyphosphates function as secondary messengers in a number of intracellular signal transduction pathways.

They are involved in a number of biological processes, including:
Insulin signal transduction
Cytoskeleton assembly
Nerve guidance (epsin)
Intracellular calcium (Ca2+) concentration control
Cell membrane potential maintenance
Breakdown of fats
Gene expression

In one important family of pathways, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is stored in cellular membranes until Inositol is released by any of a number of signalling proteins and transformed into various secondary messengers, for example diacylglycerol and inositol triphosphate.
Phytic acid in plants
2D-structure of phytic acid
Inositol hexaphosphate, also called phytic acid or IP6, is the principal storage form of phosphorus in many plant tissues, especially bran and seed.

Nutritional sources of Inositol:
myo-Inositol is naturally present in a variety of foods, although tables of food composition do not always distinguish between lecithin, the relatively bioavailable lipid form and the biounavailable phytate/phosphate form.
Foods containing the highest concentrations of myo-inositol and Inositols compounds include fruits, beans, grains, and nuts.

Fruits in particular, especially oranges and cantaloupe, contain the highest amounts of myo-inositol.
Inositol is also present in beans, nuts, and grains, however, these contain large amounts of myo-inositol in the phytate form, which is not bioavailable without transformation by phytase enzymes.

Bacillus subtilis, the microorganism which produces the fermented food natto, produces phytase enzymes that may convert phytic acid to a more bioavailable form of inositol polyphosphate in the gut.
Additionally, Bacteroides species in the gut secrete vesicles containing an active enzyme which converts the phytate molecule into bioavailable phosphorus and inositol polyphosphate, which is an important signaling molecule in the human body.

myo-Inositol can also be found as an ingredient in energy drinks, either in conjunction with or as a substitute for glucose, ostensibly to increase serotonin levels and alertness.
In humans, myo-inositol is naturally made from glucose-6-phosphate through enzymatic dephosphorylation.

Intumescent paint is a passive fire protection system.
While Intumescent Paints may appear to be a regular paint, it’s not— it’s actually a complex of chemicals held inert in a binder.
When exposed to the heat of a fire, that binder melts, and the chemicals quickly begin to react.


What was previously a thin coating of paint is rapidly transformed into a thick, flame-resistant foam, often up to 25-50 thicker than it previously was.
As that foam is further exposed to fire, it hardens into a highly insulative char, which offers excellent heat protection to the material it’s been applied to.


This char can prevent structural steel from warping or buckling, even after long exposure to high temperature fire.
If you want your structure to have the best fire resistance possible, you’ll want to give intumescent paints serious consideration. Intumescent paints are easy to apply, nice to look at, and can stop a fire in its tracks.


Let’s talk about how Intumescent Paints work and some of the industry ratings you’ll need to know if you’re thinking of using intumescent paints on your structure.
Intumescent Paints have quickly become the industry standard because it’s so easy to apply, and aesthetically pleasing.


But you can’t just slap on a coat and call it a day; when it comes to fire-retardant paint, you have to meet a strict set of standards.
Intumescent paints are considered the lightest form of passive fire protection.
An intumescent is a coating that, when exposed to heat, is rapidly transformed through sublimation, and expands many times its original thickness (up to 100 times), to form a stable, carbonaceous char.


One type of functional coating is a fire-retardant variety (also known as an Intumescent Paints) to insulate steel substrates exposed to fire.
Intumescent Paints is project-dependent but generally understood to mean a coating can withstand temperatures in the range of 200°C to 600°C for a period of time.


The demand for Intumescent Paints is closely tied to construction spending.
The split between U.S. residential and nonresidential construction is 60/40.
Nonresidential construction spending continues to increase (4.1% in 2016).


Construction markets showing double-digit, year-over-year growth include lodging, office, and commercial structures.
Public construction, in areas such as water supply, sewage treatment, and public safety, was down slightly in 2016, but the short-term outlook is positive, depending on U.S. infrastructure spending.


Overall, the average growth in total construction spending has been a robust 8.1% over the last five years.
Intumescent Paints is used cost and time-effective fireproofing solutions for various construction assemblies.
Easy and quick to apply to a wide range of substrate materials, these intumescent and fire-retardant solutions minimize flame spread, smoke production, and structural damage.


Intumescent Paints are more cost-effective than other solutions without sacrificing protection (as low as $0.75 per square foot). Water-based and non-toxic, this fire-retardant, fire-resistant coating is applied just like standard paints (by rolling, brushing, or spraying) and can create a fire-rated wall for your structure in as little as two coats.



USES and APPLICATIONS of INTUMESCENT PAINTS:
Additionally, Intumescent Paints are also widely used as a passive heat protection system in the steel fabrications, construction, marine, and aerospace industries.
Intumescent Paints are typically available in two forms: spray-applied and brush-applied.


While both forms offer effective fire protection, spray-applied Intumescent Paints leaves a thicker layer that often needs to be polished to hide and protect the underlying steel element.
The resultant char reduces the conduction of heat from the fire to the substrate, delaying the time it takes to reach structural failure.


This carbonaceous char must have the ability to remain in situ during any movement of the steel, such as expansion or deflection, until the required protection criteria is achieved.
Intumescent paints are typically applied using airless spray paint equipment for speed and quality of finish, whilst some brands might require large plural spray equipment, although brush and roller applications may also be used.


Depending on the project specification, usually up to 120 minutes, the vast majority of the intumescent materials in the market would need several coatings to be applied in order to reach the required dry film thickness to protect the structure from failure.
Intumescent paints and coatings, sometimes referred to as fireproof, fire resistant paint, flame/fire retardent, firestop or fire rated paints, are used in buildings as a passive fire protection measure to protect structural steel.


Intumescent Paints are usually specified in a fire risk assessment to comply with safety legislation and fire regulations and the level of fire protection or fire resistance is given in minutes which could be 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes.
The key feature of Jotun thin-film Intumescent Paints is that they look much like a normal paint when applied but swell in the event of a fire insulating the structural steel members from high temperatures.


Intumescent Paints work by undergoing a chemical reaction when heated to form an expanded, thermally insulating layer that can help protect against heat loss.
This expansion creates a thick, spongy layer that acts as insulation, protecting the underlying material from fire.


This type of paint, Intumescent Paints, are most commonly used in architecture to create an attractive surface on exposed structural steel elements.
Intumescent Paints is most commonly used in architecture to create an attractive surface on exposed structural steel elements.
The typical fireproofing spray provides a thick and spongy surface that requires a finished surround to conceal and protect the steel members.


Intumescent Paints provide the same level of protection in the form of a thin layer of paint.
Paint is applied to the steel in layers to achieve the thickness required to meet the building code's requirements for protection.
A final coating of Intumescent Paints is applied to the steel.


This paint is tinted with pigment to provide the desired colour.
Intumescent Paints can also be applied to the wooden structural members.
The protection of wood is more about preventing the spread of flames and smoke than Intumescent Paints are about preventing the transmission of heat.


Intumescent Paints can be put to the wood member to offer a rating, but only if the painted appearance is acceptable.
Intumescent Paints can be applied using brushes, rollers or sprays.
Intumescent Paints, often referred to as intumescent paint, is one of the easiest and most efficient ways to protect load-bearing elements of buildings against fire.


Intumescent Paints delays the collapse of the structure through insulating the structural elements (columns, beams, floors and roofs) that support the building, thus helping achieve fire resistance levels specified in terms of time.
Therefore, Intumescent Paints fulfill the highest priority of passive fire protection: preventing the collapse of the building, allowing the time for safe evacuation of people from it and making it safer for the emergency services and rescue team.


Intumescent Paints is an increasingly used way of providing passive fire protection to the load-bearing structures, especially structural steel, which is becoming more and more popular in modern architectural design of both industrial and commercial buildings.
As a means of fire protection, Intumescent Paints present several advantages.


Intumescent Paints do not modify the intrinsic properties of materials, for example, the mechanical properties.
Intumescent Paints are easily processed, and
Different kinds of Intumescent Paints can be used on a variety of materials, such as steel, timbers, composite elements and concrete.


There is demand for Intumescent Paints in specialty coatings sub-segments, such as marine, transportation, onshore/offshore oil and gas production, and new industrial and commercial construction.
The increased use of lightweight materials for transportation, modular homes, and insulation applications is a key driver.


Intumescent Paints are increasingly used to protect spherical structures containing natural gas, peroxides, and other chemicals.
Of special importance in new construction of commercial buildings, Intumescent Paints incorporate flame-retardant chemicals to achieve two distinct industry efficacy ratings.


The first measures flame spread, or how effectively the coating limits flammability (according to ASTM E84).
The second rating demonstrates coating efficacy for delaying and resisting the effects of fire
Intumescent Paints are fire-resistant coatings crucial for safeguarding structural materials (i.e. steel, wood) in construction, transportation, and aerospace.


Comprising ammonium polyphosphate (APP), a carbon source, and a blowing agent, these coatings react chemically to high temperatures.
When exposed to heat, APP decomposes to release phosphoric acid, reacting with the carbon source to create a char layer.
Coated ammonium polyphosphate (APP) has received significant attention due to its superior performance.


Two common coatings for APP are silane and melamine formaldehyde.
Silane coatings improve adhesion between the flame retardant and the polymer matrix, while melamine formaldehyde enhances thermal stability.
Coating APP offers environmental stability, protecting it from moisture and UV radiation for consistent fire protection.


Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) also improves dispersion, adhesion, compatibility with other components, and controlled release of phosphorus during exposure to heat or fire.
This enhances the overall effectiveness, durability, and environmental sustainability of intumescent coatings, making them a focus for their superior performance in fire resistance even in harsh environments.


-Intumescent Paints can be easily applied to:
• Sheetrock
• Oriented strand board (OSB)
• Sheet metal
• PVC
• Steel
• Interior woods
• Exterior woods

WHAT IS DRY FILM THICHNESS (DFT) OF INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
The dry film thickness and quantity of material required for a certain fire resistance time (R 30, 60, 90, 120 minutes or more) depends upon various factors.
Dry film thickness of intumescent products for structural steel is determined by the following factors:

Mass factor (called also massivity, section factor or Hp /A or Ap /V), a ratio between the area of the steel exposed to the fire and the volume of the steel section.

The higher the mass factor, the faster the steel section heats up, and the greater the thickness of fire protection material required.
Exposure or number of faces exposed to fire.

Is the structural steel a column or a beam, a composite element, a hollow section or something else?
Critical temperature, the limiting temperature as a function of the degree of utilization.

The lower the critical temperature, the faster the steel section will reach it, and the greater the thickness of fire protection material required.
Duration or fire rating or the level of protection required (R 60, R 120, etc.).

Test Standards and Approvals.
There are various such Test Standards and Approvals giving different thicknesses for the same protection.



HOW TO CORRECTLY APPLY INTUMESCENT PAINTS TO STEEL MATERIALS - PREPARATION TIPS:
Intumescent Paints are always part of a system.
For steelworks, the system includes an anticorrosive primer and (eventually) a topcoat.

For the former, the purpose is assuring adhesion to the substrate in the cold state, anticorrosion protection and stickability of intumescent char formed during fire exposure, while for the latter, the purpose is serving an aesthetic function and, in case of specific atmospheric aggression, a sealer function to prevent early degradation and inactivation of the intumescent layer and to promote weathering resistance in end-use conditions.

Before being coated with a compatible primer, steelwork must be prepared according to the SA 2.5 Swedish Standard.
If that is already the case, it must be cleaned and free from grease, oil, rust, dirt or any other contaminant that may inhibit the bonding.



HOW EFFECTIVE IS INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
Most recently, Australian Fire Control’s work in Raine Square included spraying intumescent paint into a steel framing system to provide a level of protection and encasing the framing in aluminium to provide further protection from its surroundings.
Intumescent Paints is an integral part of an effective passive fire protection system.

When exposed to extreme temperatures, Intumescent Paints rapidly expand to protect the surface that it's applied.
This prevents, minimizes, or delays fire damage to building structures, ultimately providing time for occupants to evacuate safely.

Intumescent Paints is specially formulated to delay the onset of fire and provide a barrier between the heat of the fire and the surface that which it's applied to.
Intumescent Paints work by charring when exposed to heat, creating an insulating layer that protects the surface from further damage.

In order to be effective, Intumescent Paints must be applied correctly and regularly maintained.
When used correctly, Intumescent Paints can provide an essential line of defence against fire damage.

Intumescent Paints are optimized for 30 to 120 minutes fire protection.
As surface protection Intumescent Paints reache Euroclass Bs1, d0 on a wooden based surface.
In the event of a fire, Intumescent Paints are transformed into a thick, porous foam layer that delays the flow of heat to the treated structure.



WHAT ARE INTUMESCENT PAINTS AND HOW DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS WORK?
Intumescent paints are an important element of passive fire protection, as they can be applied to a variety of combustible building materials in order to bring them into compliance with fire regulations.
Intumescent Paints react when its temperature attains or exceeds 120°C, and the process results in a soft charring effect at its surface (which insulates and reduces transmission of heat into the substrate) and the release of water vapour (which helps to cool the substrate).



HOW DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS WORK?
Intumescent Paints are a reactive coating which swells as a result of heat exposure, thus increasing in volume and decreasing in density.
Specifically, Intumescent Paints are a coating that reacts to heat by swelling in a controlled manner to many times its original thickness, producing a carbonaceous char formed by a large number of small bubbles that act as an insulating layer to protect the substrate.

The purpose of Intumescent Paints is the prevention of the structural collapse of the building, which can occur if load- bearing steel elements reach a critical state.

For steel, this is linked to the critical temperature, defined as the temperature at which the load-bearing capacity becomes equal to the effect of the applied loads (so the steel element is very close to collapse).
Critical temperature of steel can vary from 350 °C to 750 °C, depending mainly on the loading scheme, but in most of the cases between 500 °C and 620 °C.

For concrete, critical state is linked to the critical temperature of the reinforcing bars (normally from 350 °C to 500 °C) and to reaching a temperature of 500 °C inside the concrete element.



HOW LONG DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS LAST?
The performance of Intumescent Paints products can vary depending on the specific type of coating, with some providing 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, or even 120 minutes of protection.
These solutions are especially effective in situations or applications that require a high level of fire protection.



CAN I USE INTUMESCENT PAINTS TO PROTECT CONCRETE OR TIMBER CONSTRUCTIONS?
Intumescent paints can also be used for protecting concrete, in which case the thickness necessary for the given fire resistance time is calculated with regard to the critical temperature of both the steel reinforced bars (between 350 °C and 500 °C) and the concrete cover (the least distance between the surface of embedded reinforcement and the outer surface of the concrete).
Intumescent Paints, especially if transparent, can also be used for protection of timber, reducing the fire reaction and improving the fire rating.



HOW DO I CHOOSE THE BEST TYPE OF INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
The topcoat should be specified based upon the intended use of the system and the environmental conditions.
The following use categories are defined for fire protective products according to ETAG 018:

Type X: Reactive coating system intended for all conditions (internal, semi-exposed and exposed).
Type Y: Reactive coating system intended for internal and semi-exposed conditions.
The latter includes temperatures below zero, but no exposure to rain and limited exposure to UV (ultraviolet) (which is not assessed).

Type Z1: Reactive coating system intended for internal conditions (excluding temperatures below zero) with high humidity.
Type Z2: Reactive coating system intended for internal conditions (excluding temperatures below zero) with humidity classes other than Z1
If protected with a specific topcoat (depending on the weather condition), intumescent paints can also be applied in high-humidity, semi-exposed or exposed conditions.

The main chemical families of topcoats used for environmental protection are:
*two-component polyurethane top coat
*two-component acrylic polyurethane
*copolymer acrylic
*polyurethane
*acrylic PU
*epoxy
*urethane alkyd

WHAT TYPES OF SUBSTRATE CAN BE PROTECTED WITH INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
Structural Steel and Cast iron
Intumescent-paint-for-steel

In the event of fire, structural steel elements can have their load-bearing capability seriously impaired.
The structure may then rapidly collapse, thus impeding evacuation and fire-fighting and endangering personnel.

The duration of protection during a fire often differs between manufacturers and individual products, but it is often between 60 and 120 minutes.
During this period, the load-bearing capabilities of steel should not be impaired.
Many architects specify this type of fire protection, as it allows the incorporation of steel structures as an architectural design feature.



DO I NEED TO APPLY TOPCOATING ON INTUMESCENT PAINTS FOR STEEL PROTECTION?
Intumescent Paints for normal interior application can be used without any additional decorative top layer.
Adding a topcoat is necessary for exterior semi-exposed or high ambient- humidity applications.
The nature of the environment to which the coatings will be exposed may affect their durability or their performance in a fire situation.
If necessary, a topcoat must be applied to the surface of the Intumescent Paints, either as a protection against environmental degradation or for decorative purposes.



COMMON TYPES OF INTUMESCENT PAINTS
1. Water-based Intumescent Paints
Water-based Intumescent Paints are a generally more eco-friendly, and less-chemically smelling option.
Intumescent Paints are the least expensive and produce less odour, however, these coatings are less tolerant to humidity and low temperatures and therefore may take longer to completely cure in such environments.


2. Solvent-based Intumescent Paints
Solvent-based coatings usually used in semi-exposed environments and are tested against weather and temperature variations.
Solvent-based coatings tend to be more resistant to weather conditions as well as temperature changes and humidity.
Intumescent Paints also dry faster and have a smoother finish.


3. Epoxy-based Intumescent
Epoxy-based intumescent is typically used in harsher environments such as the offshore marine industries or the chemical industry because these coatings provide excellent hydrocarbon fire protection.
Epoxy-based intumescent comes in two-parts which when combined, forms a very thick and durable film that insulates the steel member and is highly resistant to corrosion.



HOW DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS WORK?
Intumescent Paints is a type of reactive paint that expands when exposed to heat, forming a char barrier that helps to insulate the underlying material and slow the spread of fire.

Intumescent Paints are often used as a passive fire protection measure in commercial and industrial buildings, as it can provide an extra layer of protection against the spread of fire.
Intumescent Paints can effectively help protect your property from fire damage, and it is important to choose the right formulation for your needs.




8 COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT INTUMESCENT PAINTS:

HAVE YOU HEARD OF INTUMESCENT PAINTS FOR FIREPROOFING?
Fire protection is crucial for the safety and longevity of your buildings, and protective coatings such as Intumescent Paints can help.
Keep reading to learn more about these formulations and find the answers to eight common questions about intumescent paints.


WHAT ARE INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
Intumescent paints are protective coatings that shield building materials from damage during a fire.
Professional contractors apply intumescent paints to a construction material’s surface, and the paint offers passive fire protection until a fire occurs.

Passive and active fire protection are key elements to preventing damage and injuries during fire emergencies.
Intumescent Paints help protect buildings across a wide range of industries, including everything from industrial and commercial facilities to residential buildings and homes.


HOW DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS WORK?
Because they are passive fire protection materials, intumescent paints do not activate until a fire occurs.
The elevated heat from the flames causes a reaction that activates the protective coating.

This elevated temperature needed to activate Intumescent Paints usually exceeds 200 degrees Celsius.
The chemical reaction causes the coating to swell and char to many times its original thickness.
This swelled, charred layer insulates the building materials underneath and protects them from the flames, providing structural protection.

By minimizing the spread of flames, intumescent coatings help minimize damage during a fire and provide occupants with more time to evacuate the premises and contact emergency services.


WHERE SHOULD YOU USE INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
Building designers, contractors, and planners can use Intumescent Paints on interior and exterior surfaces.
In fact, there are even specialty formulas that help mitigate damage from wildfires.

The main places where fireproofing coatings are useful are a building’s structural materials.
If the building’s beams, frame, and support structure experience fire damage, it can compromise the structural integrity of the whole building.
On the exterior of the building, these paints can protect similar structural materials as well as a building’s siding, foundation, and roofing.


DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS WORK OUTDOORS?
Humidity and strong weather are a challenge when choosing paints and coatings for a home or commercial building.
However, as you now know, manufacturers create intumescent paints for both interior and exterior use.

With specialty formulations, certain paints can hold up to outdoor conditions.
If you live or work in an area with increased risks for wildfires or elevated fire danger, you may want to invest in exterior fire paint.
These paints can be especially useful on worksites with increased fire risks, such as welding or construction sites.


WHAT MATERIALS CAN YOU APPLY INTUMESCENT PAINTS TO?
Now that you know where you can apply fireproof paints, you might be wondering what materials they are compatible with.
There is a wide range of Intumescent Paints formulations that support an even wider variety of building materials.

Intumescent Paints can cover and protect everything from wood to steel beams, depending on the formulation.
Intumescent Paints are always important to examine the type of paint you purchase for your professional painting and contracting jobs.
Make sure you have the right variety of paint for the building you are coating.


WHAT DO YOU DO AFTER INTUMESCENT PAINTS ACTIVATE?
Intumescent paints are good for one use.
They provide passive fire protection from the moment you apply them until they char and expand during a fire event.
After a fire occurs, address the condition of your building’s intumescent-protected materials with safety professionals.

You will need to schedule any repairs to your building, and once complete, you can schedule an application for a new coat of fireproof paint.
Always hire a professional painter for your intumescent coating applications to ensure the paint can set properly and provide optimal passive fire protection.

CAN YOU PAINT OVER INTUMESCENT PAINTS?
Many new Intumescent Paints clients wonder if these coatings will impact the aesthetic appearance of their homes or commercial buildings.
However, most coatings have minimal aesthetic impact.
In fact, you can even seal and paint over many types of fire-retardant coatings.

Painting over the coatings can help them blend in with the surroundings of the room or building overall.
For example, if you wanted to apply a protective coating around the exterior of your building, you could match a paint to your siding colors.
Tips and tricks such as this help preserve your building’s curb appeal while also providing crucial fire protection.


HOW LONG DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS LAST?
Once your house has a professional fire-resistant paint application, the coating provides protection until a fire event or until it expires. However, intumescent paints last prolonged periods before they require reapplication.

After sitting for long periods, intumescent paints can deteriorate and lose their effectiveness, which is why reapplication is crucial.
The average lifespan of a fireproof coating ranges anywhere from 5 to 50 years, depending on the formulation and application.
Always ask the manufacturer and professional painter for a more exact estimate of when you will need another coat.

However, in the unfortunate case that your paints do become active during a fire, Intumescent Paints have a protection time of anywhere from 30 minutes to 120 minutes.
These specialty 2-hour-rated intumescent paints are ideal for businesses with high fire risks and large numbers of occupants to evacuate.
Intumescent Paints provide increased protection and safety to comply with building codes.



HOW DO INTUMESCENT PAINTS WORK?
Intumescent Paints work when they are subjected to heat.
At temperatures of around 200-250°C, a complex chemical reaction provides insulation from intense heat.
Intumescent Paints undergoes rapid sublimation and extends several times its initial thickness up to 100 times to create a stable, carbonaceous char.

When the paint is applied correctly, Intumescent Paints can keep a building's steel structure from collapsing for up to 120 minutes, ensuring that the required fire rating levels (FRLs) are met.
This amount of time also helps firefighters to bring the situation under control and for buildings to be evacuated.

Without encasing structural steel components in concrete, vermiculite, or fire-rated boards, intumescent coatings can achieve the required FRLs.
This permits structural steel components to become an architectural feature of a building's design and potential cost savings.

Intumescent Paints also protect the substrate from structural deterioration and collapse since steel deteriorates at temperatures above 300°C, resulting in structural collapse and jeopardizing firefighters' lives.
At temperatures around 200°C, Intumescent Paints reacts, protecting the substrate from severe heat.

Intumiscent coatings are considered the lightest form of passive fire protection.
An intumescent is a coating that, when exposed to heat, is rapidly transformed through sublimation, and expands many times its original thickness (up to 100 times), to form a stable, carbonaceous char.
The resultant char reduces the conduction of heat from the fire to the substrate, delaying the time Intumiscent coatings takes to reach structural failure.
This carbonaceous char must have the ability to remain in situ during any movement of the steel, such as expansion or deflection, until the required protection criteria is achieved.

Intumiscent coatings may be used as a diluent for the preparation of polysulfone membranes by heat induced phase separation.
Intumiscent coatings finds potential applications in water treatment and food processing.
Intumiscent coatings may also be used as a plasticizer with poly(vinyl) chloride (PVC) for the fabrication of diamond coated PVC.
Intumiscent coatings is a widely used plasticizer that has ether linkages linked with two benzoate groups.

Intumiscent coatings are typically applied using airless spray paint equipment for speed and quality of finish, whilst some brands might require large plural spray equipment, although brush and roller applications may also be used.
Depending on the project specification, usually up to 120 minutes, the vast majority of the intumescent materials in the market would need several coatings to be applied in order to reach the required dry film thickness to protect the structure from failure.

Intumescent coatings may be designed for protection of metals from fire, such as structural steel.
Reviews of the technology are available.
They may be based on a number of resin binders including epoxy, and silicone.
Melamine-formaldehyde resin systems have been used using layered double-hydroxide modified phosphate esters that improved the intumescent properties.

An intumescent is a substance that swells as a result of heat exposure, leading to an increase in volume and decrease in density.
Intumescence refers to the process of swelling.
Intumescent materials are typically used in passive fire protection and require listing, approval, and compliance in their installed configurations in order to comply with the national building codes and laws.

The details for individual building parts are specified in technical standards which are compiled and published by national or international standardization bodies like the British Standards Institute (BSI), the German Institute for Standardization (DIN), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

Intumescent coatings for steel constructions must be approved in standardized fire tests.
An intumescent is a substance that swells as a result of heat exposure, thus increasing in volume and decreasing in density.
Intumescent materials used in fire protection will increase their volume significantly under the influence of heat (approximately at 200°C).

Inuline is a group of naturally occurring polysaccharides produced by many types of plants, industrially most often extracted from chicory.
Inuline is also fermentable fiber, meaning bacteria metabolize it in your large intestine.
Inuline is a soluble dietary fiber with positive effects on the gut microbiome.

Inuline is a prebiotic, a compound that encourages the healthy growth of gut bacteria.
Beneficial gut bacteria support gut health and immunity and reduce disease risk.
Inuline is also fermentable fiber, meaning bacteria metabolize it in your large intestine.


Inuline is also a type of oligosaccharide called a fructan.
Fructans are a chain of fructose (sugar) molecules strung together.
Inuline is found naturally in the roots of many foods, such as whole wheat, onions, garlic, and Jerusalem artichokes.


Inuline’s commonly extracted from chicory root and added to foods.
One of the ingredients whose consumption has become widespread due to its health benefits is Inuline.
In case you are wondering, Inuline is a type of prebiotic that cannot be digested or absorbed.


Since Inuline reaches the intestine without being digested, it supports the formation of beneficial bacteria, that is, it acts as a prebiotic.
Inuline is a fructooligosaccharide and is a starchy dietary fiber found in the cell walls of plants.
These soluble dietary fibers, which consist of frucant, a carbohydrate molecule chain, can be taken into the body naturally through food or with Inuline supplements obtained by heating chicory roots.


Apart from its health benefits, Inuline can also be added to processed foods by manufacturers to change the consistency under the name fructooligosaccharide in the content information.
Inuline is a soluble dietary fiber with positive effects on the gut microbiome.


Inuline is thought to help with regulating fat metabolism and blood sugar, as well as easing constipation and depression, for example.
Plants naturally produce Inuline and use it as an energy source, and it’s found in 36,000 different plant species.
Inuline’s considered a prebiotic and is often added to more and more food products because of its benefits and adaptability.


Inuline is a type of prebiotic.
Inuline's not digested or absorbed in the stomach.
Inuline stays in the bowel and helps certain beneficial bacteria to grow.


Inuline is a starchy substance found in a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs, including wheat, onions, bananas, leeks, artichokes, and asparagus.
The Inuline that is used in supplements most commonly comes from soaking chicory roots in hot water.
Inuline is a soluble plant fiber that’s present in high amounts in the chicory root plant, along with an estimated 36,000 other plants!


Some foods that contain Inuline include whole wheat, onions, bananas, garlic, asparagus and Jerusalem artichokes — plants that are sometimes called prebiotic foods.
Technically Inuline is a type of fructan, oligofructose carbohydrate.


Inuline’s present inside the roots and stems of plants as a means of storing energy and regulating the plant’s internal temperature.
Inuline contains about one-fourth of the calories of white sugar per gram and has minimal effects on blood glucose levels, making it helpful for diabetics.
Inuline also has osmotically active properties (a benefit to plants because this helps them resist cold temperatures and survive) and a high molecular weight.


This gives Inuline the ability to absorb liquid and to have a natural resistance to digestive enzymes produced by humans.
Inuline is a group of naturally occurring polysaccharides produced by many types of plants, industrially most often extracted from chicory.
Inuline belongs to a class of dietary fibers known as fructans.


Inuline is used by some plants as a means of storing energy and is typically found in roots or rhizomes.
Most plants that synthesize and store Inuline do not store other forms of carbohydrate such as starch.
Inuline is a type of fiber that's found in certain plant foods.


Chicory root is the main source of Inuline in supplement form.
Chicory was originally found in Europe and Asia.
Egyptians grew it thousands of years ago as a medicine.


It's now grown in the U.S.
Your small intestine does not absorb Inuline.
When Inuline reaches your large intestine (colon), bacteria ferment it.


“What is Inuline?”
The question is being investigated with more and more scientific studies every day and the health benefits of Inuline are examined.
Intestinal health, which is maintained through a regular and balanced diet, can be restored to a healthy state with Inuline supplements when it is damaged in some cases.

The intestines always contain many beneficial and harmful bacteria.
Inuline is necessary to support intestinal health throughout life to prevent the decline of beneficial bacteria and ensure that they prevail over harmful bacteria.
The supplements used must be selected under the supervision of an expert and used in appropriate doses.



USES and APPLICATIONS of INULINE:
In the United States in 2018, the Food and Drug Administration approved Inuline as a dietary fiber ingredient used to improve the nutritional value of manufactured food products.

Using Inuline to measure kidney function is the "gold standard" for comparison with other means of estimating glomerular filtration rate.
Dietary fibers like Inuline have been used for hundreds of years to improve bowel functions and gut health, curb appetite, and help maintain heart health, all completely naturally.

People commonly use Inuline by mouth for weight loss, constipation, and diabetes.
Inuline's also used for high blood fats, including cholesterol and triglycerides, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support most of these uses.


-Research demonstrates there are many uses of Inuline-type prebiotics, including:
*gastrointestinal health
*colon cancer prevention
*better blood sugar control and protection against type 2 diabetes
*support for infant nutrition and growth and development in kids
*healthier cholesterol levels and improved lipid metabolism
*improved bone mineralization
*protection from fatty liver disease
*protection from obesity
*enhanced immunity due to probiotic growth


-Uses of Inuline:
Supplement use should be individualized and vetted by a healthcare professional, such as a registered dietitian nutritionist (RD or RDN), pharmacist, or healthcare provider.

No supplement is intended to treat, cure, or prevent disease.
Inuline is considered a functional food, which means it has a potential benefit on health.

Some people incorporate Inuline-containing foods and supplements into their diet to support gut health, manage blood sugar, control weight, and reduce cancer risk.
Some of these uses of Inuline have more evidence than others.


-Inuline may Improve Gut Health
Inuline fosters the growth of good bacteria, like Bifidobacterium, in your gut.
This potentially improves your gut microbiome by reducing harmful bacteria.

A 2020 systematic review noted increases in Bifidobacterium and other health-promoting bacteria, such as Anaerostipes, Faecalibacterium, and Lactobacillus, with Inuline supplements.
On the other hand, "bad" bacteria like Bacteroides decreased.


-Inuline may Help Blood Sugar Control
Research has explored Inuline's potential impact on insulin resistance (when your body doesn't respond to insulin as it should), a concern in type 2 diabetes and obesity.


-Inuline may Help Manage Weight and Appetite
Fiber, the non-digestible part of carbohydrates, helps regulate appetite by slowing down how quickly your stomach empties.


-Inuline may Improve Heart Health
Inuline-type fructans (ITF) may benefit heart health.
According to a systematic review, ITFs have reduced low-density lipoprotein, triglycerides, and body weight.


-Inuline may Help Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
Inuline may benefit people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
A review of preclinical and clinical data suggested prebiotics may positively impact the gut microbiome and mucosal barrier of people with IBD.

It may also decrease intestinal inflammation.
This may help with IBD symptoms.
Another study concluded that Inuline intake positively affected bowel function for people with chronic constipation.


-Additional Uses of Inuline:
Some people also use Inuline for the following:
*Colorectal cancer prevention
*Calcium absorption
There is little evidence to support Inuline for these uses, but research is ongoing.


-Processed foods uses of Inuline:
Inuline received no-objection status as generally recognized as safe (GRAS) from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), including long-chain Inuline as GRAS.
In the early 21st century, the use of Inuline in processed foods was due in part to its adaptable characteristics for manufacturing.

It is approved by the FDA as an ingredient to enhance the dietary fiber value of manufactured foods.
Inuline's flavor ranges from bland to subtly sweet (about 10% of the sweetness of sugar/sucrose).
Inuline can be used to replace sugar, fat, and flour.

This is advantageous because Inuline contains 25–35% of the food energy of carbohydrates (starch, sugar).
In addition to being a versatile ingredient, Inuline provides nutritional advantages by increasing calcium absorption and possibly magnesium absorption, while promoting the growth of intestinal bacteria.

Chicory Inuline is reported to increase absorption of calcium in young women with lower calcium absorption and in young men.
In terms of nutrition, Inuline is considered a form of soluble fiber and is sometimes categorized as a prebiotic.
Conversely, Inuline is also considered a FODMAP, a class of carbohydrates which are rapidly fermented in the colon producing gas.

Although FODMAPs can cause certain digestive discomfort in some people, they produce potentially favorable alterations in the intestinal flora that contribute to maintaining health of the colon.

Due to the body's limited ability to process fructans, Inuline has minimal increasing impact on blood sugar, and may potentially have use in managing blood sugar-related illnesses, such as metabolic syndrome.


-Medical uses of Inuline:
Inuline and its analog sinistrin are used to help measure kidney function by determining the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which is the volume of fluid filtered from the renal (kidney) glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule per unit time

While Inuline is the gold standard for measuring the GFR, it is rarely used in practice due to the expense and difficulty in conducting the test; it requires intravenous (IV) access for the infusion of Inuline as well as up to twelve blood samples taken from the patient over the course of four hours.

To determine the glomerular filtration rate in humans, a large initial dose of Inuline is injected, which is followed by a constant infusion of Inuline at a rate that compensates for its loss in the urine, thus maintaining a reasonably constant level in the plasma.
In the United States, creatinine clearance is more widely used to estimate GFR.


-Harvesting and extraction use of Inuline:
Chicory root is the main source of extraction for commercial production of Inuline.
The extraction process for Inuline is similar to obtaining sugar from sugar beets.

After harvest, the chicory roots are sliced and washed, then soaked in a solvent (hot water or ethanol); the Inuline is then isolated, purified, and spray dried.
Inuline may also be synthesized from sucrose.


-Industrial use of Inuline:
Nonhydrolyzed Inuline can also be directly converted to ethanol in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process, which may have potential for converting crops high in Inuline into ethanol for fuel.


-Biochemistry uses of Inuline:
Inuline is polymers composed mainly of fructose units (fructans) and typically have a terminal glucose.
The fructose units in Inuline is joined by a β(2→1) glycosidic bond.

The molecule is almost exclusively linear, with only a few percent branching.
In general, plant Inuline contain between 2 and 70 fructose units or sometimes as high as 200, but molecules with less than 10 units are called fructo-oligosaccharides, the simplest being 1-kestose, which has two fructose units and one glucose unit.

Bacterial Inuline is more highly branched (more than 15% branching) and contains on the order of tens or hundreds of subunits.
Inuline is named in the following manner, where n is the number of fructose residues and py is the abbreviation for pyranosyl:
Inuline with terminal glucose is known as alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-[beta-D-fructofuranosyl](n-1)-D-fructofuranosides, abbreviated as GpyFn.

Inuline without glucose are beta-D-fructopyranosyl-[D-fructofuranosyl](n-1)-D-fructofuranosides, abbreviated as FpyFn.
Hydrolysis of Inuline may yield fructo-oligosaccharides, which are oligomers with a degree of polymerization (DP) of 10 or less.



WHAT IS INULINE GOOD FOR IN TERMS OF SUPPORTING HUMAN HEALTH?
Studies show Inuline’s especially valuable because it has important “prebiotic effects.”
Inuline allows healthy probiotics that make up the human microbiome to thrive, repopulate and survive.
Inuline also clings to cholesterol in the GI tract, which can protect against metabolic syndrome.



BENEFITS OF INULINE:
Inuline has various health benefits including alleviating constipation, supporting immune function and aiding weight loss.


*Inuline Can Support Gut Health
Without enough good bacteria in the gut, we can’t digest food properly, especially fibre.
If ‘bad’ bacteria thrives and the microbiome is unbalanced, we can experience an upset stomach, bloating and more.
Inuline helps to increase the volume of good bacteria in the gut, which in turn promotes healthy digestion, blood sugar control and pathogen protection.


*Inuline May Relieve Constipation
Studies show that Inuline helps to increase the frequency of bowel movements, whilst slowing overall digestion.
This allows the body to absorb nutrients from food better.


*Inuline May Be Helpful For Managing Blood Pressure
Whilst more research is needed on Inuline and heart health, it’s thought that this fibre can help to lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.


*Inuline Can Help To Improve Sleep Quality
Took prebiotics including Inuline for five days, and significant improvement in sleep duration and sleep quality.
Inuline is because good bacteria in the microbiome aids stress resilience and allows more time in REM sleep.

Data also indicates that poor sleep, mood disorders and immune function issues are linked to poor microbiome diversity.
In fact, 60 minutes of waking during the night has been linked to a 26% reduction in gut microbe diversity.



TOP FOODS OF INULINE:
Inuline is found plant foods that are referred to as prebiotic foods.
While supplements are available, the best way to get Inuline is through your diet. Some of the best Inuline foods include:

*ground chicory root fiber (the most common source of Inuline due to its extremely high concentration)
*dandelion root
*asparagus
*leeks and onions
*bananas and plantains (especially when they’re slightly green)
*sprouted wheat (such as the kind used in Ezekiel bread)
*garlic
*Jerusalem artichokes
*fresh herbs
*yams
*burdock root
*camas root
*coneflower, also called echinacea
*jicama
*yacon root

Good bacteria basically live off of fibers within the diet, which is why high-fiber foods like fruit, leafy greens and beans/legumes are said to be good for gut health.



CAN YOU TASTE INULINE OR TELL IF INULINE'S IN SOMETHING YOU ARE EATING?
Normally you can’t.
Inuline’s almost totally colorless and odorless, although it does have a slightly sweet taste that some people can pick up on.

Because Inuline doesn’t add much to the taste or smell of your foods, it’s easy to use in recipes, mixed into smoothies, or just on its own stirred into water or juice.
You can use Inuline as a fiber supplement or look for foods that already contain it.

Because of its lubricating, water-absorbing, enzyme-resistant qualities, Inuline is used in food manufacturing very often to give products a uniform texture and add chewiness and bulk. Inuline’s added to more and more packaged foods because it has adaptable, unique characteristics in terms of its ability to blend with any taste well, improve the food’s “mouth feel,” and even to replace other ingredients like sugar, fat and flour.

As a popular prebiotic, Inuline is not digested in the intestines.
Instead, Inuline stays in the colon where it feeds gut microbes and helps them to grow.



ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF INULINE
Inuline is a natural storage carbohydrate present in more than 36,000 species of plants, including agave, wheat, onion, bananas, garlic, asparagus, Jerusalem artichoke, and chicory.
For these plants, Inuline is used as an energy reserve and for regulating cold resistance.

Because Inuline is soluble in water, it is osmotically active.
Certain plants can change the osmotic potential of their cells by changing the degree of polymerization of Inuline molecules by hydrolysis.
By changing osmotic potential without changing the total amount of carbohydrate, plants can withstand cold and drought during winter periods.

Inuline was discovered in 1804 by German scientist Valentin Rose.
He found "a peculiar substance" from Inula helenium roots by boiling-water extraction.

In the 1920s, J. Irvine used chemical methods such as methylation to study the molecular structure of Inuline, and he designed the isolation method for this new anhydrofructose.

During studies of renal tubules in the 1930s, researchers searched for a substance that could serve as a biomarker that is not reabsorbed or secreted after introduction into tubules.

A. N. Richards introduced Inuline because of its high molecular weight and its resistance to enzymes.
Inuline is used to determine glomerular filtration rate of the kidneys.



CHEMICAL STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF INULINE:
Inuline is a heterogeneous collection of fructose polymers.
Inuline consists of chain-terminating glucosyl moieties and a repetitive fructosyl moiety, which are linked by β(2,1) bonds.

The degree of polymerization (DP) of standard Inuline ranges from 2 to 60.
After removing the fractions with DP lower than 10 during manufacturing process, the remaining product is high-performance Inuline.
Some articles considered the fractions with DP lower than 10 as short-chained fructo-oligosaccharides, and only called the longer-chained molecules Inuline.

Because of the β(2,1) linkages, Inuline is not digested by enzymes in the human alimentary system, contributing to its functional properties: reduced calorie value, dietary fiber, and prebiotic effects.
Without color and odor, Inuline has little impact on sensory characteristics of food products.

Oligofructose has 35% of the sweetness of sucrose, and its sweetening profile is similar to sugar.
Standard Inuline is slightly sweet, while high-performance Inuline is not.
Inuline's solubility is higher than the classical fibers.

When thoroughly mixed with liquid, Inuline forms a gel and a white creamy structure, which is similar to fat.
Its three-dimensional gel network, consisting of insoluble submicron crystalline Inuline particles, immobilizes a large amount of water, assuring its physical stability.
Inuline can also improve the stability of foams and emulsions.



WHAT IS INULINE USED FOR?
After answering the question, Inuline is necessary to talk about its benefits.
The benefits of Inuline come from the fact that it is a soluble prebiotic fiber.

*Positively Affects Intestinal Health
The intestines form their microbiota with many good and bad bacteria.
Inuline can provide benefits to the body such as boosting the body's immune system, maintaining the health of the intestines, and increasing nutrient absorption.

Wheat bran fiber contributes to increasing stool volume and accelerating intestinal transit.
Since Inuline also supports the formation of probiotic bacteria, it can help prevent or heal digestive system disorders such as constipation by increasing intestinal movements.



SOURCES OF INULINE:
Inuline can be found naturally in foods such as:
*Jerusalem artichoke
*chicory root
*onion
*garlic
*barley
*dahlia

With its creamy consistency, Inuline can work as a fat substitute in margarine and salad dressings.
Inuline’s also used to replace some of the flour in baked goods and is often sourced from chicory root and Jerusalem artichoke in particular.



BENEFITS OF INULINE:
*Inuline is high in fiber and low in calories.
*Inuline also has other health benefits.
*Inuline keeps you full (of fiber)
Fiber is any type of carbohydrate the body can’t digest.
*Inuline moves through the intestines intact and continues into the colon to serve as food for the bacteria there.
Fiber has low caloric value, but it’s essential to good health.

The fiber in Inuline is soluble, which means it dissolves in water.
Inuline dissolves in the stomach and then forms a gelatinous substance that:
*Inuline slows digestion
*Inuline increases fullness
*Inuline reduces cholesterol absorption as it passes through the digestive tract
*Inuline promotes digestive health

Your gut contains 15,000-36,000 species of bacteria.
Only a small portion of the bacteria in the body has the potential to be harmful.

Good bacteria provide many health benefits.
Inuline stimulates some of these bacteria to grow.
Inuline aids digestion by increasing the number of good bacteria in the gut, particularly Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli.

These bacteria help:
*fend off unwanted pathogens (bad bacteria)
*prevent infection
*stimulate your immune system

Inuline also adds bulk to your stool and increases the frequency of your bowel movements.
You may have more bowel movements, but Inuline slows overall digestion.

This enables your body to better absorb nutrients from the food you eat.
Research suggests Inuline can also enable the body to better absorb calcium.
Calcium creates a stronger skeletal system.


*Inuline controls blood sugar
Inuline slows digestion, including the digestion of carbohydrates.
This allows sugar to be released slowly without spiking, which promotes healthy blood sugar levels.

A 2019 study found that Inuline supplements can improve insulin resistance in people with type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Inuline can act as a potential blood sugar stabilizer when present in your diet over a long period of time.
That said, more research is needed to understand this effect in people living with obesity.
Research suggests these properties make Inuline a good weight management aid.

Inuline and oligofructose, also called fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), belong to the class of fructan carbohydrates.
Other synonyms for these healthy food ingredients are chicory root fiber and chicory root extract.
Here the word Inuline refers to all types of Inulines, including oligofructose and chicory root fiber.



OTHER POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF INULINE:
There is some evidence that Inuline supplements may help other conditions, although the evidence is not as strong.
This includes benefits for heart health, mineral absorption, colon cancer, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).


*Inuline may support heart health:
Inuline may improve several markers for heart health.
In one study, females who received 10 g of HP Inuline for 8 weeks had significant decreases in both triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol.
However, other studies have reported smaller reductions in triglycerides, and no improvements in other markers.


*Inuline may help prevent colon cancer:
Some researchers think that Inuline could help protect the cells in the colon.
This is because of how Inuline ferments into butyrate. For this reason, several studies have looked into its effects on colon health.


An older study on humans found that Inuline caused the colon environment to be less favorable for cancer development, which is promising.
This may lead to a reduced risk of colon cancer, but more research is needed.


*Inuline may help treat IBD
Research suggests that Inuline, as a prebiotic, can have benefits for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by improving gut flora and decreasing inflammation in the gut.

A few small human studies have also found reduced symptoms of ulcerative colitis, and a reduction in inflammatory markers in Crohn’s disease.
Nevertheless, researchers are not yet ready to recommend the use of Inuline in treating IBD.



WHAT IS INULINE USED FOR?
*Helps Control Blood Sugar
Eating low-fiber diets can be considered a risk factor for diabetes.
Inuline, on the other hand, can have a preventive effect on blood sugar fluctuations thanks to its fiber structure.


*Supports Weight Loss
Soluble fibers are substances that provide satiety for a long time when consumed.
Thanks to Inuline's low calories and long-lasting satiety, sudden cravings for food are prevented and may help weight loss over time.


*May Increase Calcium and Magnesium Absorption
Since Inuline fiber can reach the intestines, it helps increase the absorption of certain minerals in the intestines.
While Inuline can prevent increased calcium and magnesium absorption deficiencies, it helps to benefit from the benefits of these minerals to the maximum extent.


*May Help Regulate Blood Fats
Inuline consumption may play a role in preventing the rise of cholesterol and triglycerides.
Inuline may also have positive effects on cardiovascular health by increasing HDL (good cholesterol) levels.


*Possible Benefits in Preventing Colon Cancer
Inuline increases the synthesis of beneficial bifidobacteria in the intestines.
Inuline is increased bifidobacteria help prevent the formation of procarcinogenic substances.
Inuline helps to excrete substances that may pose a risk of cancer if their formation is not prevented, through the feces.



METABOLISM IN VIVO, INULINE:
Inuline is indigestible by the human enzymes ptyalin and amylase, which are adapted to digest starch.
As a result, Inuline passes through much of the digestive system intact.

Only in the colon do bacteria metabolise Inuline, with the release of significant quantities of carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and/or methane.
Inuline-containing foods can be rather gassy, in particular for those unaccustomed to Inuline, and these foods should be consumed in moderation at first.

Inuline is a soluble fiber, one of three types of dietary fiber including soluble, insoluble, and resistant starch.
Inuline is soluble fiber dissolves in water to form a gelatinous material.
Some soluble fibers may help lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels.

Because normal digestion does not break Inuline down into monosaccharides, it does not elevate blood sugar levels and may, therefore, be helpful in the management of diabetes.
Inuline also stimulates the growth of bacteria in the gut.

Inuline passes through the stomach and duodenum undigested and is highly available to the gut bacterial flora.
This makes Inuline similar to resistant starches and other fermentable carbohydrates.

Some traditional diets contain over 20 g per day of Inuline or fructo-oligosaccharides.
The diet of the prehistoric hunter-forager in the Chihuahuan Desert has been estimated to include 135 g per day of Inuline-type fructans.

Many foods naturally high in Inuline or fructo-oligosaccharides, such as chicory, garlic, and leek, have been seen as "stimulants of good health" for centuries.
As of 2013, no regulatory authority had permitted health claims in the marketing of prebiotics as a class.

Inuline's health effects had been studied in small clinical trials, which showed that it causes gastrointestinal adverse effects such as bloating and flatulence, does not affect triglyceride levels or development of fatty liver, may help prevent travelers' diarrhea, and may help increase calcium absorption in adolescents.



NATURAL SOURCES OF INULINE:
Plants that contain high concentrations of Inuline include:
*Agave (Agave spp.)
*Banana and plantain (Musaceae)
*Burdock (Arctium lappa)
*Camas (Camassia spp.)
*Chicory (Cichorium intybus)
*Coneflower (Echinacea spp.)
*Costus (Saussurea lappa)
*Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale)
*Elecampane (Inula helenium)
*Garlic (Allium sativum)
*Globe artichoke (Cynara scolymus, Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus)
*Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus)
*Jicama (Pachyrhizus erosus)
*Leopard's bane (Arnica montana)
*Mugwort root (Artemisia vulgaris)
*Onion (Allium cepa)
*Wild yam (Dioscorea spp.)
*Yacón (Smallanthus sonchifolius)



WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE INULINE?
People often use Inuline to try to treat or prevent digestive problems.

Inuline may:
*Decrease constipation.
In one study, older people with constipation who took 20 to 40 grams of Inuline daily for a month had less trouble with constipation.

*Increase helpful bacteria in the colon.
Because it has this effect, Inuline is called a prebiotic.
Prebiotics may have numerous health benefits.

They may:
*Help increase the amount of calcium and other minerals you absorb from food
*Support a healthy immune system
*Relieve intestinal problems
*Inuline may also lower levels of triglycerides, a type of blood fat.

Suggested dosages vary by supplement maker.
Optimal doses of Inuline have not been set for any condition.
Quality and active ingredients in supplements may vary widely from maker to maker.
This makes Inuline hard to set a standard dose.



CAN YOU GET INULINE NATURALLY FROM FOODS?
Many foods -- and plants that are less commonly eaten -- contain Inuline.
These include:
*Asparagus
*Bananas
*Burdock
*Chicory, which is used in salads
*Dandelion root
*Garlic
*Jerusalem artichokes
*Leeks
*Onions

Inuline is found in some processed foods as a replacement for fat, such as:
*Candy bars
*Yogurt
*Cheese
*Ice cream
When combined with water in a precise way, Inuline can mimic the texture of fat in these foods.

Inuline is a type of soluble fiber found in many plants.
Inuline is also fructan.
Like other fructans, Inuline is a prebiotic, meaning that it feeds the good bacteria in the gut.

Fructans are chains of fructose molecules.
The molecules link together in a way that the small intestine cannot break down.
Instead, they travel to the lower gut, where they feed beneficial gut bacteria.

The gut bacteria convert Inuline and other prebiotics into short-chain fatty acids, which nourish colon cells and provide various other health benefits.
Plants containing Inuline have been around for thousands of years, and some early humans consumed much more Inuline than we do today.

Manufacturers add Inuline to processed products to:
*boost the prebiotic content of foods
*replace fat in foods
*replace sugar in foods
*alter the texture of foods
*improve the health benefits of foods due to its benefits for gut health



WHERE DOES INULINE COME FROM?
Inuline naturally occurs in many plants, but manufacturers can also modify it for commercial use.



NATURAL SOURCES OF INULINE:
Inuline occurs in around 36,000 species of plants, and researchers say that chicory roots are the richest source.
Many plants contain only small amounts of Inuline, while others are excellent sources.

Here’s how much Inuline is in 3.5 ounces (oz), or 100 grams (g), of the following foods:
*chicory root, 35.7–47.6 g
*Jerusalem artichoke, 16–20 g
*garlic, 9–16 g
*raw asparagus, 2–3 g
*raw onion pulp, 1.1–7.5 g
*wheat, 1–3.8 g
*raw barley, 0.5–1 g

Manufactured sources:
Inuline is also available in supplement form or as an ingredient in:
*protein bars
*cereal bars
*yogurts and other milk products
*drinks
*baked goods
*desserts

Manufactured Inuline comes in several forms:
*Chicory Inuline: Extract from chicory root.
*High-performance (HP) Inuline:
Manufacturers create HP Inuline by removing the shorter molecules from it.
Fiber supplements that are closely related to Inuline are fructooligosaccharides, also known as oligofructose.



CALCULATION OF GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE OF INULINE:
Inuline is uniquely treated by nephrons in that it is completely filtered at the glomerulus but neither secreted nor reabsorbed by the tubules.
This property of Inuline allows the clearance of it to be used clinically as a highly accurate measure of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) — the rate of plasma from the afferent arteriole that is filtered into Bowman's capsule measured in ml/min.

It is informative to contrast the properties of Inuline with those of para-aminohippuric acid (PAH).
PAH is partially filtered from plasma at the glomerulus and not reabsorbed by the tubules, in a manner identical to Inuline.

PAH is different from Inuline in that the fraction of PAH that bypasses the glomerulus and enters the nephron's tubular cells (via the peritubular capillaries) is completely secreted.
Renal clearance of PAH is thus useful in calculation of renal plasma flow (RPF), which empirically is (1-hematocrit) times renal blood flow.

Of note, the clearance of PAH is reflective only of RPF to portions of the kidney that deal with urine formation, and, thus, underestimates the actual RPF by about 10%.

The measurement of GFR by Inuline or sinistrin is still considered the gold standard.
However, Inuline has now been largely replaced by other, simpler measures that are approximations of GFR.

These measures, which involve clearance of such substrates as EDTA, iohexol, cystatin C, 125I-iothalamate (sodium radioiothalamate), the chromium radioisotope 51Cr (chelated with EDTA), and creatinine, have had their utility confirmed in large cohorts of patients with chronic kidney disease.

For both Inuline and creatinine, the calculations involve concentrations in the urine and in the serum.
However, unlike creatinine, Inuline is not naturally present in the body.
This is an advantage of Inuline (because the amount infused will be known) and a disadvantage (because an infusion is necessary).



HEALTH BENEFITS OF INULINE:
People take Inuline for a variety of reasons.
Inuline may improve digestive health, relieve constipation, promote weight loss, and help control diabetes.


*Improves digestive health:
The gut microbiota is the population of bacteria and other microbes that live in the gut.

This community is highly complex and contains both good and bad bacteria.
Having the right balance of bacteria is essential for keeping the gut healthy and protect the body from disease.

Inuline can help promote this balance.
In fact, studies have shown that Inuline can help stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria.
Increasing the amounts of healthful bacteria can help improve digestion, immunity, and overall health.


*Relieves constipation
For many people, Inuline may also help relieve symptoms of constipation.
One analysis found that people taking Inuline experienced more frequent bowel movements and improved stool consistency.
In another 4-week study, older adults who consumed 15 g of Inuline per day reported less constipation and better digestion.


*Promotes weight loss:
Several studies indicate that Inuline can also help with weight loss.
In one weight loss study, people with prediabetes took Inuline or another fiber called cellulose for 18 weeks.

Those taking Inuline lost significantly more weight between 9 and 18 weeks.
However, some studies of children with overweight or obesity have not found that oligofructose or Inuline reduce calorie intake.


*Helps control diabetes:
Several studies suggest that Inuline may improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes and prediabetes.
However, this may depend on the type of Inuline.

The high-performance (HP) type may be especially beneficial.
For example, one study found that HP Inuline decreased fat in the livers of people with prediabetes.
This is significant, as some research says that reducing fat in the liver can help reduce insulin resistance and potentially reverse type 2 diabetes.

In another study, females with type 2 diabetes consumed 10 g of HP Inuline per day.
Their fasting blood sugar decreased by an average of 8.5%, while hemoglobin A1c — a marker for long-term blood sugar control — fell by an average of 10.4%.
However, although HP Inuline may benefit diabetes and prediabetes, results from older studies using some other types of Inuline are less consistent.


*Improved mineral absorption and bone health
According to a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review, scientific evidence supports the idea that Inuline-type fructans can benefit bone mineral density and how well the body absorbs calcium



HOW TO USE INULINE?
Inuline can be taken into the body with daily nutrition or can be used as a supplement under expert supervision when necessary.
Even foods with high Inuline content, such as bananas, onions and barley, have low Inuline contents.

Inuline, which can be found in powder, capsule and tablet forms, can be consumed in powder form by adding it to foods, smoothies and water.
Thanks to its starch structure, Inuline becomes sticky when wet, providing retention in foods and can be found in processed foods.
Inuline powders can be added to cooked foods as a sweetener and appear to provide an egg-like consistency.



IN WHICH FOODS IS INULINE FOUND?
Foods containing Inuline are found in many fruits and vegetables that contain a plant-derived fructooligosaccharide.
The leaves and roots of plants act as carbohydrate storage and also store Inuline.

Foods containing Inuline, which is taken into the body by frequently consuming the roots and leaves of plants, are as follows:
*Chicory root 41.6 g / 100 g
*Artichoke 4.4g / 100g
*Banana 0.5g / 100g
*Dried garlic 28.2 g / 100 g
*Leek 6.5g / 100g
*Wheat 2.5g / 100g
*Onion 4.3g / 100g
*Rye flour 0.7g / 100g



WHO SHOULD USE INULINE?
The increasing use of supplements among children and adults also applies to Inuline.
Inuline is a beneficial and soluble fiber that can be used by everyone.

Although its use in children and infants requires extra care and supervision, Inuline can be preferred by people who want to regulate their digestive system and have problems with their intestinal health.
Inuline can be recommended for use by people who have long-term constipation problems and mineral absorption problems.

Inuline, which is a supplement that can be preferred under expert supervision for all kinds of medications and diseases that negatively affect the intestinal flora, can be used to regulate intestinal health, especially after antibiotic use.
Thanks to its plant origin, Inuline can be easily consumed by vegans and vegetarians.



HOW MUCH INULINE SHOULD BE TAKEN?
Although there is no standard Inuline consumption amount determined for individuals, when taken as a supplement, it can start with 3-5 grams and increase to 10-30 grams depending on the person's needs.
Thanks to its high dietary fiber content, daily Inuline consumption is sufficient at low levels.

As consumption increases, the benefits do not increase.
Inuline should be used in a controlled manner as it may cause problems such as diarrhea and gas due to its thickening effect when consumed in excess.
In intestinal problems such as constipation, stool consistency can be increased by increasing short-term intake amounts.



BENEFITS OF INULINE:
1. Reduces Constipation
How does Inuline make you poop?
Due to its chemical composition, when Inuline is mixed with liquid it forms a creamy gel that’s ideal for relieving constipation.

When gelled, Inuline has a structure similar to lipids (fats) that also help lubricate the digestive system and lessen risk for things like hemorrhoids.
Not only do fructans work by increasing faecal biomass and water content of poop, but research shows they also improve bowel habits because of how they positively affect gastrointestinal functions and rapidly ferment in the colon to produce healthy bacteria.


2. Improves Gut Health by Acting Like a Prebiotic
As a non-digestible prebiotic, Inuline passes through the large intestines unabsorbed.
During this process, Inuline naturally ferments and feeds the healthy intestinal microflora (bacterial organisms, including bifidobacterium) that populate the gut.

Research has shown that oligofructose acts like a prebiotic that impacts the lining of the gut and colon, changing the profile of organisms present and modulating the endocrine and immune functions.

By stimulating healthy bacteria to grow, soluble fiber can decrease the number of potentially harmful yeast, parasites and bacterial species living in the body that trigger inflammation.

Studies suggest this is why Inuline-type fructans have been found to reduce the risk of colon carcinogenesis and improve management of inflammatory bowel diseases.


3. Helps Curb Appetite
Even though it’s low in absorbable calories (it provides about 1.5 calories per gram), this type of fiber can help to make you feel less hungry.

Dietitians recommend that people trying to learn how to lose weight work on increasing their fiber intake in order to feel more satisfied and to deal with fewer blood sugar fluctuations.

When combined with water, Inuline bulks up and forms a gel-like substance that expands in the digestive tract.
This may help decrease appetite and cravings — potentially helping with weight loss.
Inuline also slows the process of food emptying from the stomach and takes up more volume, both which contribute to satiety after eating.


4. Boosts Heart Health and Lowers Metabolic Syndrome Risk Factors
As it passes through the digestive system unabsorbed by digestive enzymes, Inuline takes with it toxins, waste, fat and cholesterol particles.
For this reason a high-fiber diet has been tied to heart health.

Research shows that increasing your fiber intake (especially the soluble type) helps lower blood cholesterol, reduces your risk for arteriosclerosis and can help you maintain healthy glucose levels.
There seems to be an inverse association between fiber intake and systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol levels, and triglycerides.

Soluble fibers in the diet can help lower LDL (“bad”) blood cholesterol by interfering with the absorption of dietary cholesterol.
Another benefit of Inuline, according to studies, is the fact that it doesn’t cause insulin to be secreted and won’t raise blood sugar since its carbohydrates/sugars cannot be broken down.


5. Can Replace Sugar and Flour in Recipes
Oligosaccharides are used in food manufacturing and home cooking to improve food’s taste, texture, moisture level and health benefits.
While Inuline has a very mild taste that makes it versatile in recipes, some people find that it tastes slightly sweet.

Compared to sugar (sucrose) it’s said to be about 10 times less sweet.
The chicory plant, the most common and concentrated source of Inuline, has chemical similarities to the sugar beet plant that’s often used to derive sugar.

If you follow a low-carb diet or the keto diet, Inuline can be used to improve the taste and texture of sugar-free or flour-free recipes.
Inuline contains about 25 percent to 35 percent sugar and starches that work similarly to grain-based flours to absorb water and thicken recipes.
Inuline’s also soluble in hot water, which means as long as you heat it it will absorb liquid and can be used in teas, drinks or baked goods.

Since Inuline’s non-digestible and forms a gel when mixed with liquid, it’s also able to be used in place of oil (the reason you’ll find it in some low-fat cheeses, sauces, soups and condiments).


6. Increases Calcium Absorption
Certain studies have found that increasing your fiber intake may help improve absorption of electrolytes, including calcium and possibly magnesium.
How so?
It comes down to the beneficial effects of prebiotic Inuline within the gut.

Clinical Use
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is a highly effective fungicide as well as a bactericide.
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) was first used in the 1970s as a film fungicide for paint and then as a wood preservative, where final use concentration up to 4% was permitted.
For paint and coatings usually no more than 0.5% Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is used.
For metalworking fluids, adhesives, textiles, and paper, concentrations between 0.1%and 0.2% are common.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel concluded that Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is safe as a cosmetic ingredient in concentrations less than or equal to 0.1%and that it should not be used in products intended to be aerosolized.
By 1996, Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) was used in 122 formulations reported to the United States Food and Drug Administration.
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is found in a wide variety of occupational and consumer products, including shampoos, lotions, powders, makeup, baby products, paints, coatings, metalworking fluids, household products, cooling water, building materials, and contact lenses.
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is an irritant, although at low concentrations few problems have been reported.

Reactivity Profile
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is a carbamate ester.
Carbamates are chemically similar to, but more reactive than amides.
Like amides they form polymers such as polyurethane resins.
Carbamates are incompatible with strong acids and bases, and especially incompatible with strong reducing agents such as hydrides.
Flammable gaseous hydrogen is produced by the combination of active metals or nitrides with carbamates.
Strongly oxidizing acids, peroxides, and hydroperoxides are incompatible with carbamates.

Contact allergens
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) has produced slight irritation in rabbits.
However, Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) was not found to be either a skin sensitizer or a photo sensitizer in guinea pigs.
Cosmetic formulations containing up to 0.125% of Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) produce no significant irritation or sensitization reactions in human repeated insult patch tests.
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) did not cause crosssensitization reactions in patients who had demonstrated sensitivity to related dithiocarbamate compounds.
In the European Union, Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is approved as a preservative up to 0.05% and is not to be used in oral hygiene or lip care products.
If the concentration exceeds 0.02% in leave-on products, a warning label must indicate that the product contains iodine.
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is a broad-spec- trum preservative used for years because of its wide field of application, in polymer emulsions and pigment dispersions such as water-based paints and adhesives, cements and inks, as a wood preservative, in metal- working fluids, household products, and cosmetics.
Allergic contact dermatitis to Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) was reported due to cosmetics, from sanitary wipes, and in metalworkers.

Toxicity
The study, "Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate", discusses the results of 32 studies between 1990 and 1994 in 3,582 subjects using skin application of IPBC at relevant concentrations.
All 32 studies showed no evidence of contact sensitization compared to placebo controls, with the report stating "With each test formulation, a few panelists had erythema, edema, and/or a papular response, but overall, the results were negative."
In addition, the study mentions two skin sensitivity studies on 183 children ages 3 – 12 yrs which showed no adverse effects as well as no significant irritation from Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC).
Since the early safety report, there have been a few reports of human skin sensitivity to Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) in individual patients – all of which showed complete recovery after discontinuance of use of any product containing the IPBC which was presumably an allergen for these patients.

Post-1996 tests of human sensitivity to Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) have all shown quite low sensitivity, having overall reported human skin testing (patch test) on 53,774 subjects with only 491 of those subjects showing any reaction (0.8%) to IPBC.
In every study, positive patch test reactions occurred in less than 1% of subjects tested in all but one study.
This is a very low reaction rate, but Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is not zero, and the industry reports this low rate of reaction even though in the largest study of 25,435 subjects over 69% of the reactions were either weak or doubtful.

In foodstuff IONOL CP decelerates the damaging effect in fats, carotenoids, vitamins as well as in further essential food constituents caused by oxidation with atmospheric oxygen.

Polyols:
Polyols are subject to oxidative damages by light and heat in the presence of oxygen due to radical reactions.
By using IONOL CP the reactive radicals are captured and transformed into non-reactive compounds.

The chain reaction is stopped and a further damage is avoided.
IONOL CP is used as a long-term stabiliser in order to protect the polyols during storage (e.g. before use in polyurethanes) against decomposition reactions.
Depending on application, the optimum dosage amounts to 0.1 - 1.0 %.

Further Applications of IONOL CP:

Polyurethanes:
IONOL CP is used for polyurethanes as a processing and long-term stabiliser.
Particularly in the production of polyurethane foams, IONOL CP is more efficient than many other antioxidants.

Due to the high temperatures which arise inside the block foams during production, partially strong scorching can occur.
IONOL CP is very efficient and mobile, and prevents scorchingeffects.

Hence, the production of undamaged and non-discolouring foams made possible.
Depending on the application, the optimum dosage amounts to 0.1- 1.0 php.
According to the BfR regulations chapter XXXIX BHT is recommended as an anti-ageing agent for finished articles produced from polyurethanes.

Printing inks:
The shelf life of printing inks can be shortened by oxidation.
Physical changes during processing may occur.

The use of IONOL CP has a positive effect on the stability, levelling resistance as well as on the brightening and hardening properties of printing inks.
In lithographic printing IONOL CP prevents skin formation and accelerates the drying process.
The average quantities to be employed amount to 0.5 – 1.0 %.

Uses of IONOL CP:
IONOL CP is an oil-soluble antioxidant widely used at home and abroad.
Although IONOL CP is toxic, IONOL CP has strong antioxidant ability, good heat resistance and stability, no specific odor, no color reaction of metal ions, and low price, only 1/8~1/5 of BHA.

Generally IONOL CP is used in conjunction with BHA, and citric acid or other organic acids as a synergist.
China's provisions can be used for edible oil, fried food, biscuits, instant noodles, nuts canned, dry fish products, the maximum use of 0. 2g/kg.
IONOL CP also has a certain antibacterial effect, but weaker than BHA.

Characteristics of IONOL CP:
IONOL CP is a white, crystalline antioxidant and belongs to the group of non-staining, sterically hindered phenols.
IONOL CP is mainly used for the stabilisation of polymers which come into contact with foodstuffs and/or drinking water, polyols, polyurethanes, adhesives and hot melts for a possible contact with foodstuffs, odourous substances and/or perfumes, foodstuffs and printing inks.

There is BfR (formerly BGA, BgVV), FDA approval for IONOL CP and also product meets all the requirements established on Regulation 231/2012 regarding specifications for food additives, specifically criteria for E321.
Furthermore, IONOL CP conforms to the analytical requirements of the FCC (Food Chemical Codex) and Pharmacopoeias.

Nature of IONOL CP:
IONOL CP is a colorless crystal or white crystalline powder, odorless, tasteless.
IONOL CP is soluble in ethanol (25%,25 ° C), acetone (40%), benzene (40%), soybean oil, cottonseed oil, insoluble in water, glycerol, propylene glycol.
IONOL CP is light, thermal stability, heating can be volatilized with water vapor, the metal ion does not change color.

Preparation Method of IONOL CP:
p-cresol and tert-butyl alcohol are dissolved by heating, and phosphoric acid is used as catalyst to react at a certain temperature.
The reaction product is washed with sodium hydroxide solution to alkaline first, then washed with water to neutral, and finally distilled, recrystallization provides dibutyl hydroxytoluene.
Or isobutylene mixed with cresol and concentrated sulfuric acid, reaction at a certain temperature for a certain time, and the crude product is neutralized, and then the crude product is dissolved in ethanol, adding thiourea, hot filtration, spin drying, obtained by drying.

Differential Diagnosis of IONOL CP:
In the chromatogram recorded under the content determination item, the retention time of the main peak of the test solution should be consistent with the retention time of the main peak of the reference solution.
The infrared absorption spectrum of IONOL CP should be consistent with that of the reference product (General rule 0402).

Reaction Flow of IONOL CP:
Today’s ideas on the decomposition of organic compounds (e.g. polymers in plastics, synthetic or native oils in lubricants or unsaturated fatty acids in foodstuff) start from the fact that decomposition is initiated by the formation of hydrocarbon radicals R.

This reaction is caused by heat, light and/or mechanical energy:
R-H + initiator -----> R

In the chain propagation reaction the radical R reacts with atmospheric oxygen to the peroxide radical R-OO and the latter with a further hydrocarbon molecule to a radical R and a peroxide compound R-OOH.

R + O2 -----> R-OO
R-OO + R-H -----> R-OOH + R

The radical R formed in the second reaction step further reacts by chain reaction with oxygen according to the reaction equation detailed on previous page.
The peroxide R-OOH formed in the second reaction step may decompose to aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids and, depending on the type of the damaged organic compound, be responsible for discolourations, corrosion or unpleasant odour (e.g. rancid fats).

The chain reaction above can be stopped by a so-called recombination of the radicals.
The probability of such a chain reaction is very small so that the radical decomposition of organic compounds cannot come to a standstill without the addition of anti-ageing agents.
Anti-ageing agents on the basis of sterically hindered phenols act as radical scavengers, i.e. they directly intervene in the radical decomposition process by chemically bonding the radicals and preventing the chain propagation reaction.

Storage of IONOL CP:
IONOL CP has a 24 months shelf life when properly sealed and stored (in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area, at <50°C).

IPBC (Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate) Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate Iodopropynyl Butyl Carbamate (IPBC) is a water-soluble preservative used globally in the paints & coatings, wood preservatives, personal care, and cosmetics industries. IPBC is a member of the carbamate family of biocides.[1] IPBC was invented in the 1970s and has a long history of effective use as an antifungal technology. History IPBC was initially developed for use in the paint & coatings industry as a dry-film preservative to protect interior and exterior coatings from mold, mildew, and fungal growth, while also offering cost performance and sustainability benefits. IPBC exhibits efficacy against a broad spectrum of fungal species, typically at very low use levels. IPBC today is incorporated into a wide variety of interior and exterior paint formulations around the world. Use is restricted in some countries due to its toxicity, especially acute inhalation toxicity. IPBC is also becoming recognized as a contact allergen.[2] Uses IPBC is an effective fungicide at very low concentrations in cosmetic and other products, and has shown very low sensitivity in humans tested with this preservative. IPBC was approved in 1996 for use up to 0.1% concentrations in topical products and cosmetics. However, this preservative is mostly found in cosmetics at about one-eighth that level [Maier et al., 2009]. IPBC Toxicity and Safety Tests show it to be generally safe: When used properly in leave-on skin products, IPBC is extremely safe [Steinberg, 2002]. Previous to being approved for cosmetic use in 1996, extensive safety and toxicity tests were conducted on IPBC and their results were gathered along with earlier studies in a report of the Safety Assessment of IPBC by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review [CIR Final Report, Lanigan 1998]. This final report found IPBC to be a non-carcinogen with no genotoxicity and in reproductive and developmental toxicity studies using rats and mice, IPBC had no significant effect on fertility, reproductive performance, or on the incidence of fetal malformation [Lanigan, 1998]. Toxicity The study, "Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate", discusses the results of 32 studies between 1990 and 1994 in 3,582 subjects using skin application of IPBC at relevant concentrations. [3] All 32 studies showed no evidence of contact sensitization compared to placebo controls, with the report stating "With each test formulation, a few panelists had erythema, edema, and/or a papular response, but overall, the results were negative." In addition, the study mentions two skin sensitivity studies on 183 children ages 3 – 12 yrs which showed no adverse effects as well as no significant irritation from IPBC. Since the early safety report, there have been a few reports of human skin sensitivity to IPBC in individual patients – all of which showed complete recovery after discontinuance of use of any product containing the IPBC which was presumably an allergen for these patients [Toholka & Nixon, 2014; Pazzaglia & Tosti, 1999]. Post-1996 tests of human sensitivity to IPBC have all shown quite low sensitivity, having overall reported human skin testing (patch test) on 53,774 subjects with only 491 of those subjects showing any reaction (0.8%) to IPBC. In every study, positive patch test reactions occurred in less than 1% of subjects tested in all but one study. This is a very low reaction rate, but it is not zero, and the industry reports this low rate of reaction even though in the largest study of 25,435 subjects over 69% of the reactions were either weak or doubtful [Warshaw et al., 2013a]. These combined studies showing prevalence of reaction below 1% means that IPBC at this time does not have the reaction rates necessary to be included as an allergen in standard allergy series. But, it remains under close monitoring as it is a relatively new preservative for cosmetic products and will presumably increase in usage [Sasseville, 2004]. Most human patch tests performed before 2004 were with 0.1% IPBC solutions, i.e. 10 times the concentration used in many cosmetic products. Some used 0.5% IPBC. In 2004, it was suggested that a better concentration for tests of this substance would be 0.2% [Brasch et al., 2004] and this has contributed to the diagnosis of more sensitizations to this substance [Martin-Gorgojo & Johansen, 2013]. One study showed significantly increased sensitivity between 2005 and 2010 using 0.5% IPBC in patch tests [Warshaw et al., 2013b].

Its strong point is being effective against yeasts and molds, and as a nice bonus seems to be non-comedogenic as well. It is safe in concentrations of less than 0.1% but is acutely toxic when inhaled, so it's not the proper preservative choice for aerosol formulas like hairsprays. Used at 0.1%, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate has an extremely low rate of skin-irritation when applied directly for 24 hours (around 0.1% of 4,883 participants) and after 48 hours that figure was 0.5%, so it counts as mild and safe unless your skin is super-duper sensitive. iodopropynyl butylcarbamate Where is iodopropynyl butylcarbamate found? Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate is a preservative used in cosmetics, wet wipes (toilet paper), and other personal care products. It is also used as a biocide in paints, primers, and industrial coolants and cooling lubricants. How can you avoid contact with iodopropynyl butylcarbamate? Avoid products that list any of the following names in the ingredients: • Butyl-3-iodo-2-propynylcarbamate • Carbamic acid, butyl-3-iodo-2-propynyl ester • Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate • 3-Iodo-2-propynyl butylcarbamate • EPA Pesticide Chemical Code 107801 • BRN 2248232 • Caswell No. 501A • EINECS 259-627-5 • HSDB 7314 • 3-Iodo-2-propynyl butyl carbamate What are some products that may contain iodopropynyl butylcarbamate?

Initially used as a water-based paint and wood preservative and then in metalworking fluids, its role has expanded into the more recent uses in cosmetic products. The need for a potent, broad-spectrum, and safe preservative system in cosmetics allowed for the discovery of several combinations of IPBC effective against a wide variety of organisms. Although IPBC has claimed to be safe when used at concentrations less than 0.1%, the introduction of IPBC into cosmetics has led to several reports labeling IPBC as a potential new contact allergen. As the use of this seemingly safe preservative becomes vast, an increased number of cases of IPBC-induced contact allergy is likely.

IPHA 15% Isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%) (IUPAC name propan-2-ol; commonly called isopropanol or 2-propanol) is a compound with the chemical formula CH3CHOHCH3.[8] It is a colorless, flammable chemical compound with a strong odor. As an isopropyl group linked to a hydroxyl group, it is the simplest example of a secondary alcohol, where the alcohol carbon atom is attached to two other carbon atoms. It is a structural isomer of 1-propanol and ethyl methyl ether. It is used in the manufacture of a wide variety of industrial and household chemicals, and is a common ingredient in chemicals such as antiseptics, disinfectants, and detergents. isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%) is also known as 2-propanol, sec-propyl alcohol, IPA, or isopropanol. IUPAC considers isopropanol an incorrect name as the hydrocarbon isopropane does not exist Recommended use: Monomer stabilizer. Polymerization chainstopper. Synthesis intermediate. Photochemical additive. For industrial use. Other names of isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%), colorless, flammable liquid are known. For example, in the lab it may be simply denoted by isopropanol, isopro, iso, isopropyl, or acronym IPA. It is also an inorganic compound sometimes called 2-propanol, possibly referred to as an isomer, also known as propanol. Of course, isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%) is most commonly known as simple spirit. isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%), also known as isopropanol; clear, mixture of ethanol and acetone has an odor; it is a flammable alcohol. It forms solutions in any proportion with water, ethanol, acetone, chloroform and benzene, can be subjected to all typical reactions of secondary alcohols, and gives strong reactions with strong oxidizing agents. isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%), which is used as a low cost solvent in many applications, is similar to ethyl alcohol in terms of solvent properties and evaporation rate. If it burns, it decomposes to form carbon monoxide, which is toxic. IPHA 15% is useful for use in lacquers, inks and thinners in terms of its high latent solvent power, moderate evaporation rate and many other solvents it forms for cellulose nitrate, cellulose acetate butyrate and cellulose acetate procyanate. The use of isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%) in the production of monoisoprolamine for herbicides is the fastest growing segment in terms of use, and its use as a solvent in coatings and inks remains either the same or increases slightly. IPHA 15% is usually used by diluting with water when necessary for cleaning and stain removal. IPHA 15% is also used to remove oxidation and residual resin residues in electronic circuit boards. As a solvent IPHA 15%; in extraction and purification of natural products such as vegetable and animal oils, gum resins, waxes, colorants, flavors, alkaloids, vitamins and alginates; as a carrier in the production of foodstuffs; in purification, crystallization and precipitation of organic chemicals; It finds application in synthetic polymers such as phenolic varnishes and nitrocellulose lacquers. Also as a solvent; Participates in formulations of cosmetics, hair tonics, perfumes, skin lotions, hair dye rinse, skin cleaners, deodorant, nail polish, shampoo, hair sprays, air fresheners. As coating and paint solvent; It finds application in the production of cement, primer, paint and ink and acts as a cleaning and drying agent in liquid soap and detergent. isopropyl alcohol (IPHA 15%) (IPA); It is also used in the production of acetone and its derivatives and other chemicals such as isopropyl acetate, isopropylamine, diisopropyl ether, isopropyl xanthate, fatty acid esters, herbicidal esters and aluminum isopropoxide. Other Area of ​​Usage; It can be considered as a cooling agent in beer production, dehydrating agent in polyvinyl fluoride production, polymerization modifier and as a flavoring agent in home tobacco and personal care products. About IPHA 15% IPHA 15% has not been registered under the REACH Regulation, therefore as yet ECHA has not received any data about IPHA 15% from registration dossiers. IPHA 15% is used by professional workers (widespread uses), in formulation or re-packing and at industrial sites. Widespread uses by professional workers IPHA 15% is used in the following products: washing & cleaning products and water treatment chemicals. ECHA has no public registered data on the types of manufacture using IPHA 15%. Other release to the environment of IPHA 15% is likely to occur from: indoor use as reactive substance. Uses at industrial sites IPHA 15% is used in the following products: pH regulators and water treatment products, water treatment chemicals, adhesives and sealants and polymers. IPHA 15% is used for the manufacture of: rubber products. Release to the environment of IPHA 15% can occur from industrial use: as processing aid and as processing aid. The pure N-Isopropylhydroxylamine (IPHA 15%) is a white crystalline flake; however, it is sold as a 15% solution in water [2]. The aqueous solution is colourless with a slight amine odour [2]. IPHA 15% is marketed as a free-radical scavenger and uses in acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber and styrene-butadiene rubber manufacturing under the trade name CHAINGUARDTMI-15 Hydroxylamine. It is also used as an oxygen scavenger and metal passivator to control corrosion in boilers and marketed with the trade name HYDROGUARDTM I-15 Hydroxylamine [2]. IPHA 15% may also be used in other applications, such as photographic processing, “popcorn” polymer inhibition, monomer stabilization, reducing agent, dye affinity aid; ORE recovery (chelator) and as a synthetic building block [1]. The estimated rate constant of oral absorption of IPHA 15% through human gastrointestinal tract (jejunum) is 0.014 min-1by ACD/ADME Suite version 5.0 (Advanced Chemistry development, Toronto, ON, Canada). This low rate of oral absorption is consistent with the pKa (6.16) of the basic (pH of 15% aqueous solution = 10.6) compound. Most of IPHA 15% will remain ionized in human jejunum which has a pH of 6.5, lowering oral absorption. Even with the slow rate of oral absorption, the overall amount of absorption is estimated to be 99% (ACD/ADME Suite). It has also been estimated to have a moderate volume of distribution of 1.1 L/kg in human, consistent with the low log Kow for this compound. Similarly, plasma protein binding of IPHA 15% is estimated to be ~52% in humans by ACD/ADME Suite. No toxicological information for IPHA 15% is found for comparison with the rate of absorption and acute toxicity. The steady-state dermal permeability coefficient of aqueous IPHA 15% through human epidermis has been estimated to be 7.42 x 10-4cm/h by Dermwin version 2.01 (EPI Suite version 4.0). On the basis of this data, negligible penetration of dermally applied IPHA 15% is expected. However, no dermal toxicity data are available for comparison. Distribution Due to its basic nature (pH = 10.6 of 15% aqueous solution [1]), non-lipophilicity (log Kow= 0.15) and moderate plasma protein binding (~52%), a moderate volume of distribution (1.1 L/kg) is estimated for IPHA 15% in humans by ACD/ADME Suite. Accumulation Due to moderate plasma protein binding and low volume of distribution, IPHA 15% is expected to have very low bioaccumulation potential. Metabolism No data on the metabolism of IPHA 15% in rat or other species has been reported. As shown in the chemical structure, IHPA contains the two moieties of isopropyl and hydroxyamine. Therefore, it’s metabolism will be predicted based on the metabolism of both isopropyl and hydroxyamine. The isopropyl group can be metabolized to by cytochrome P450 via hydroxylation, this will lead to the hydroxylated IPHA 15% metabolite. The hydroxyamine group is expected to be metabolically stable, and will not be further metabolized by cytochrome P450 or other Phase I or II enzymes,in vivoorin vitro. Based on these rationale, the potential metabolite of IPHA 15% will be hydroxylated isopropylhydroxyamine. Excretion Both IPHA 15% and the hydroxylated isopropylhydroxyamine metabolite are water-soluble; therefore, would be expected to excreted primarily in urine. Summary This analysis estimated a relative dermal absorption of 3.5% to 7.4% of the applied dose for an aqueous solution of N-isopropylhydroxylamine (IPHA 15%), CAS No. 5080-22-8. A literature search of several databases did not find experimental dermal absorption results for IPHA 15%. QSARs were used to estimate the skin permeability coefficient and which was then extrapolated to a relative dermal absorption. Although one analog of IPHA 15% was found, it did not have experimental dermal absorption results so read across could not be applied. Introduction An evaluation of the potential human dermal absorption was conducted for IPHA 15% in order to refine the DNEL derivation for the ANGUS Chemical registration of IPHA 15% for REACH. The previous DNEL analysis conservatively assumed 100% relative dermal absorption. 1. Physical state. The substance is in aqueous solution under the use conditions; liquids are taken up more readily than dry particulates. 2. Exposure. IPHA 15% is used in 15% aqueous solutions in HYDROGUARD and CHAINGUARD, these products are for industrial use in water-treatment operations and polymer reaction-control applications. It was suggested that transferring the chemical from a product container into a process tank would present the highest exposure potential; other tasks would expose the worker to more dilute solutions. 3. Physical and chemical properties. IPHA 15% has a molecular weight of 75. Molecular weight is an indicator of the molecule volume and the penetration rate of a molecule into the skin is inversely proportional to its volume. One would not expect the molecular weight of IPHA 15% to significantly limit is dermal penetration. 4. Octanol/water partition coefficient, Kow. The estimated log Kow for IPHA 15% is 0.15 and it is classified as lipophobic. The Kow, is the ratio of the chemical concentration in octanol to its concentration in water, with octanol acting as a model for the lipids (fats) in an organism. A log Kow value below 0 will limit penetration into the stratum corneum and limit dermal absorption. A high log Kow value corresponds to a highly lipophilic chemical which will tend to partition into the skin lipids rather than the aqueous matrix. 5. Vapor pressure. If a substance has a significant vapor pressure it may evaporate before it has time to penetrate the skin or the skin penetration may be significantly reduced. The vapor pressure for IPHA 15% was reported as 0.26 mm Hg at 20°C (15% aqueous IPHA 15% in CHAINGUARD™ ) and evaporation may reduce the dermal load and possibly limit the dermal penetration. 6. Lag time. This is the experimentally determined duration for the substance to penetrate the skin and be measured in the receptor fluid in the test cell. A long lag time may be due to the stratum corneum providing a barrier which prevents substance penetration. A long lag time may also be due to the substance penetrating slowly or formation of a skin residue. The calculations using the skin permeability coefficient assume the substance immediately penetrates the skin and do not consider the lag time in uptake. The USEPA DERMWIN v2.01 predicted tau as 0.281 hr, tau is lag time in update; it predicted t*as 0.674 hr, t* is time to steady state penetration. 7. Water solubility. This limits the substance concentration in an aqueous solution. Substances which are soluble tend to penetrate the skin well. Substances with a high water solubility may be too hydrophilic to cross the stratum corneum. IPHA 15% has a high predicted water solubility and it is hydrophilic. 8. Water dissociation. Substances which dissociate (ionize) in water do not tend to penetrate the skin well. IPHA 15% does not ionize. Therefore, using the REACH stepwise approach one would expect the low log Kow and the hydrophilic nature of IPHA 15% to limit its dermal penetration. Evaporation may reduce the dermal load and possibly limit the dermal penetration. IPHA 15% is an organic compound, an isomer of n-propanol, aliased dimethylmethanol, 2-propanol. IPHA 15% is a colorless, transparent liquid with a scent like a mixture of ethanol and acetone. Soluble in water, also soluble in most organic solvents such as alcohol, ether, benzene, chloroform, etc. IPHA 15% has a wide range of uses as an organic raw material and solvent. 1）As a chemical raw material, it can produce acetone, hydrogen peroxide, methyl isobutyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, isopropylamine, diisopropyl ether, isopropyl chloride, and fatty acid isopropyl ester and chloro fatty acid isopropyl ester. 2）In the fine chemical industry, it can be used to produce isopropyl nitrate, isopropyl xanthate, triisopropyl phosphite, aluminum isopropoxide, pharmaceuticals and pesticides, etc. It can also be used to produce diisopropanone, isopropyl acetate and Thymol and gasoline additives. 3）IPHA 15% Can be used to produce coatings, inks, extractants, aerosols, etc. 4) In the electronics industry, IPHA 15% can be used as a cleaning and degreasing agent. 5) In the oil and fat industry, the extractant of cottonseed oil can also be used for degreasing of animal-derived tissue membranes. IPHA 15% (IUPAC name propan-2-ol; commonly called isopropanol or 2-propanol) is a colorless, flammable chemical compound (chemical formula CH3CHOHCH3) with a strong odor.[8] As an isopropyl group linked to a hydroxyl group, it is the simplest example of a secondary alcohol, where the alcohol carbon atom is attached to two other carbon atoms. It is a structural isomer of 1-propanol and ethyl methyl ether. IPHA 15% is used in the manufacture of a wide variety of industrial and household chemicals and is a common ingredient in chemicals such as antiseptics, disinfectants, and detergents. Names of IPHA 15% IPHA 15% IPHA 15% is also known as 2-propanol, sec-propyl alcohol, IPA, or isopropanol. IUPAC considers isopropanol an incorrect name as the hydrocarbon isopropane does not exist. Properties of IPHA 15% IPHA 15% is miscible in water, ethanol, ether, and chloroform. It dissolves ethyl cellulose, polyvinyl butyral, many oils, alkaloids, gums and natural resins.[9] Unlike ethanol or methanol, IPHA 15% is not miscible with salt solutions and can be separated from aqueous solutions by adding a salt such as sodium chloride. The process is colloquially called salting out, and causes concentrated IPHA 15% to separate into a distinct layer. IPHA 15% forms an azeotrope with water, which gives a boiling point of 80.37 °C (176.67 °F) and a composition of 87.7 wt% (91 vol%) IPHA 15%. Water–IPHA 15% mixtures have depressed melting points.[10] It has a slightly bitter taste, and is not safe to drink. IPHA 15% becomes increasingly viscous with decreasing temperature and freezes at −89 °C (−128 °F). IPHA 15% has a maximal absorbance at 205 nm in an ultraviolet–visible spectrum. Reactions of IPHA 15% IPHA 15% can be oxidized to acetone, which is the corresponding ketone. This can be achieved using oxidizing agents such as chromic acid, or by dehydrogenation of IPHA 15% over a heated copper catalyst: (CH3)2CHOH → (CH3)2CO + H2 IPHA 15% is often used as both solvent and hydride source in the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction and other transfer hydrogenation reactions. IPHA 15% may be converted to 2-bromopropane using phosphorus tribromide, or dehydrated to propene by heating with sulfuric acid. Like most alcohols, IPHA 15% reacts with active metals such as potassium to form alkoxides that can be called isopropoxides. The reaction with aluminium (initiated by a trace of mercury) is used to prepare the catalyst aluminium isopropoxide.[14] History of IPHA 15% In 1920, Standard Oil first produced IPHA 15% by hydrating propene. Its major use at the time was not rubbing alcohol but for oxidation to acetone, whose first major use was in World War I for the preparation of cordite, a smokeless, low explosive propellant. Production of IPHA 15% In 1994, 1.5 million tonnes of IPHA 15% were produced in the United States, Europe, and Japan.[16] It is primarily produced by combining water and propene in a hydration reaction or by hydrogenating acetone. There are two routes for the hydration process and both processes require that the IPHA 15% be separated from water and other by-products by distillation. IPHA 15% and water form an azeotrope, and simple distillation gives a material that is 87.9% by weight IPHA 15% and 12.1% by weight water.[18] Pure (anhydrous) IPHA 15% is made by azeotropic distillation of the wet IPHA 15% using either diisopropyl ether or cyclohexane as azeotroping agents.[16] Biological of IPHA 15% Small amounts of IPHA 15% are produced in the body in diabetic ketoacidosis.[19] Indirect hydration of IPHA 15% Indirect hydration reacts propene with sulfuric acid to form a mixture of sulfate esters. This process can use low-quality propene, and is predominant in the USA. These processes give primarily IPHA 15% rather than 1-propanol, because adding water or sulfuric acid to propene follows Markovnikov's rule. Subsequent hydrolysis of these esters by steam produces IPHA 15%, by distillation. Diisopropyl ether is a significant by-product of this process; it is recycled back to the process and hydrolyzed to give the desired product. CH3CH=CH2 + H2O H2SO4⟶ (CH3)2CHOH Direct hydration of IPHA 15% See also: Heteropoly acid Direct hydration reacts propene and water, either in gas or liquid phase, at high pressures in the presence of solid or supported acidic catalysts. This type of process usually requires higher-purity propylene (> 90%).[16] Direct hydration is more commonly used in Europe. Hydrogenation of acetone IPHA 15% may be prepared via the hydrogenation of acetone, however this approach involves an extra step compared to the above methods, as acetone is itself normally prepared from propene via the cumene process.[16] It may remain economical depending on the value of the products. A known issue is the formation of MIBK and other self-condensation products. Raney nickel was one of the original industrial catalysts, modern catalysts are often supported bimetallic materials. This is an efficient process and easy Uses of IPHA 15% One of the small scale uses of isopropanol is in cloud chambers. Isopropanol has ideal physical and chemical properties to form a supersaturated layer of vapor which can be condensed by particles of radiation. In 1990, 45,000 metric tonnes of IPHA 15% were used in the United States, mostly as a solvent for coatings or for industrial processes. In that year, 5400 metric tonnes were used for household purposes and in personal care products. IPHA 15% is popular in particular for pharmaceutical applications,[16] due to its low toxicity. Some IPHA 15% is used as a chemical intermediate. IPHA 15% may be converted to acetone, but the cumene process is more significant. [16] Solvent of IPHA 15% IPHA 15% dissolves a wide range of non-polar compounds. It also evaporates quickly, leaves nearly zero oil traces, compared to ethanol, and is relatively non-toxic, compared to alternative solvents. Thus, it is used widely as a solvent and as a cleaning fluid, especially for dissolving oils. Together with ethanol, n-butanol, and methanol, it belongs to the group of alcohol solvents, about 6.4 million tonnes of which were used worldwide in 2011.[20] IPHA 15% is commonly used for cleaning eyeglasses, electrical contacts, audio or video tape heads, DVD and other optical disc lenses, removing thermal paste from heatsinks on CPUs and other IC packages, etc. Intermediate IPHA 15% is esterified to give isopropyl acetate, another solvent. It reacts with carbon disulfide and sodium hydroxide to give sodium isopropylxanthate, a herbicide and an ore flotation reagent.[21] IPHA 15% reacts with titanium tetrachloride and aluminium metal to give titanium and aluminium isopropoxides, respectively, the former a catalyst, and the latter a chemical reagent.[16] This compound may serve as a chemical reagent in itself, by acting as a dihydrogen donor in transfer hydrogenation. Medical of IPHA 15% Rubbing alcohol, hand sanitizer, and disinfecting pads typically contain a 60–70% solution of IPHA 15% or ethanol in water. Water is required to open up membrane pores of bacteria, which acts as a gateway for IPHA 15%. A 75% v/v solution in water may be used as a hand sanitizer.[22] IPHA 15% is used as a water-drying aid for the prevention of otitis externa, better known as swimmer's ear.[23] Early uses as an anesthetic Although IPHA 15% can be used for anesthesia, its many negative attributes or drawbacks prohibit this use. IPHA 15% can also be used similarly to ether as a solvent[24] or as an anesthetic by inhaling the fumes or orally. Early uses included using the solvent as general anesthetic for small mammals[25] and rodents by scientists and some veterinarians. However, it was soon discontinued, as many complications arose, including respiratory irritation, internal bleeding, and visual and hearing problems. In rare cases, respiratory failure leading to death in animals was observed. Automotive IPHA 15% is a major ingredient in "gas dryer" fuel additives. In significant quantities, water is a problem in fuel tanks, as it separates from gasoline and can freeze in the supply lines at low temperatures. Alcohol does not remove water from gasoline, but the alcohol solubilizes water in gasoline. Once soluble, water does not pose the same risk as insoluble water, as it no longer accumulates in the supply lines and freezes but is consumed with the fuel itself. IPHA 15% is often sold in aerosol cans as a windshield or door lock deicer. IPHA 15% is also used to remove brake fluid traces from hydraulic braking systems, so that the brake fluid (usually DOT 3, DOT 4, or mineral oil) does not contaminate the brake pads and cause poor braking. Mixtures of IPHA 15% and water are also commonly used in homemade windshield washer fluid. Laboratory As a biological specimen preservative, IPHA 15% provides a comparatively non-toxic alternative to formaldehyde and other synthetic preservatives. IPHA 15% solutions of 70–99% are used to preserve specimens. IPHA 15% is often used in DNA extraction. A lab worker adds it to a DNA solution to precipitate the DNA, which then forms a pellet after centrifugation. This is possible because DNA is insoluble in IPHA 15%. Safety of IPHA 15% IPHA 15% vapor is denser than air and is flammable, with a flammability range of between 2 and 12.7% in air. It should be kept away from heat and open flame.[26] Distillation of IPHA 15% over magnesium has been reported to form peroxides, which may explode upon concentration. IPHA 15% is a skin irritant. Wearing protective gloves is recommended. Toxicology of IPHA 15% IPHA 15% and its metabolite, acetone, act as central nervous system (CNS) depressants.[31] Poisoning can occur from ingestion, inhalation, or skin absorption. Symptoms of IPHA 15% poisoning include flushing, headache, dizziness, CNS depression, nausea, vomiting, anesthesia, hypothermia, low blood pressure, shock, respiratory depression, and coma.[31] Overdoses may cause a fruity odor on the breath as a result of its metabolism to acetone.[32] IPHA 15% does not cause an anion gap acidosis but it produces an osmolal gap between the calculated and measured osmolalities of serum, as do the other alcohols.[31] IPHA 15% is oxidized to form acetone by alcohol dehydrogenase in the liver,[31] and has a biological half-life in humans between 2.5 and 8.0 hours.[31] Unlike methanol or ethylene glycol poisoning, the metabolites of IPHA 15% are considerably less toxic, and treatment is largely supportive. Furthermore, there is no indication for the use of fomepizole, an alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor, unless co-ingestion with methanol or ethylene glycol is suspected. In forensic pathology, people who have died as a result of diabetic ketoacidosis usually have blood concentrations of IPHA 15% of tens of mg/dL, while those by fatal IPHA 15% ingestion usually have blood concentrations of hundreds of mg/dL.

In ceramics, black iron is used as a source of Fe (in preference to red iron) where its black raw color and its better distribution properties are needed.
For example, Alberta Slip is a recipe of raw clays and minerals intended to duplicate Albany Slip.
The recipe calls for a small amount of iron oxide because the clay blend does not fire to quite as dark of a color.
Since the original Albany Slip powder was a dark grey, black iron (rather than red) is employed in the Alberta Slip recipe to match this color better and provide the needed iron to the fired product.

The chemistry shown here is not the actual, synthetic black iron is almost pure Fe3O4.
This chemistry is intended to work with INSIGHT where it is normal to define only FeO and Fe2O3.

Synthetic black iron is fluffier and lighter than synthetic red iron oxide (a bag of black iron is much larger than a bag of red).
It is a very fine powder, 100% will easily wash through a 325 mesh screen.
Synthetic black iron does not agglomerate as badly as red iron, thus it disperses in glaze slurries better (thus avoiding fired speckle).
You can determine which form you have by washing a sample through a 325 mesh screen, if there is residue it is natural magnetite.

The exceedingly fine particle size of iron oxides makes them very messy to work with, they stain the skin in a manner that only soap can remove even though they do not dissolve in water.
High purity, low heavy metal content grades of black iron are available.
All forms should have 90% or more Fe3O4.
Black iron is also used as a colorant for a wide range of non-ceramic products.

Most synthetic magnetites are made by some type of chemical precipitation (0.2-1 micron particle size).
However, a high-temperature drying process can be used to convert synthetic hematite into synthetic magnetite (thus the greater cost).
The resultant product of this process has a slightly larger particle size (2-10 microns).
100% pure material would contain 72.3% Fe.

Black iron oxide is used as a source of Fe in ceramic applications, particularly in glazing where price and its black raw color are important.
Iron oxide provide the color in glaze after being fired at high temperatures.
High purity, low heavy metal content grades are available.
Magnetite 99% Fe3O4 (Black Iron Oxide)

Black iron powder is also used as a colorant for a wide range of non-ceramic products.
Some iron oxide pigments are widely used in the cosmetic field.
They are considered to be nontoxic, moisture resistant, and nonbleeding.
Iron oxides graded safe for cosmetic use are produced synthetically in order to avoid the inclusion of impurities normally found in naturally occurring iron oxides.

Black iron oxide or magnetite is also used for corrosion resistance purposes.
Black iron oxide is also used in anti-corrosion paints (used in many bridges, and Eiffel tower).
Iron oxides are used as contrast agent in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, to shorten proton relaxation times, (T1, T2 and T2).

The super paramagnetic contrast agents are composed of a water insoluble crystalline magnetic core, usually magnetite (Fe3O4).
The mean core diameter ranges from 4 to 10 nm.
This crystalline core is often surrounded by a layer of dextrin or starch derivatives.
The total size of the particle is expressed as the mean hydrated particle diameter.

ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Black oxide is a recent development in modern pigments and was unknown in artists' palettes before the nineteenth century.

SOURCE OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
The source of black oxide usually is from an iron ore called magnetite.
Magnetite, also known as lodestone, is a ferrous ferric oxide (ferrosic oxide) that is a heavy, black color and opaque.
Theoretically, black iron oxide contains slightly more iron metal than red oxide but not nearly as much as yellow oxide.
The native mineral may contain varying amounts of manganese, sulfur, clay and silica.

PERMANENCE AND COMPATIBILITY:
Black oxide is absolutely permanent colors for all uses on the artist's palette.
It is compatible with all other pigments, and can be used with good results in all mediums.

OIL ABSORPTION AND GRINDING:
Black oxide absorbs a moderately low amount of oil.
The oil absorption ratio is 10–15 parts by weight of linseed oil to 100 parts by weight of pigment.
If the measurement were grams, it would require 100 grams (by weight) of pigment to grind 10 to 15 grams (by weight) of linseed oil to form a stiff paste.
It makes an average drying oil paint, and forms a hard, fairly flexible film.

Iron Oxide Black, also known as Ferrous-Ferric Oxide, is a dark pigment derived from minerals.
Iron Oxide Black is found in nature in the mineral magnetite.
‘CI’ stands for Colour Index and is used under the INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) system to identify different colourants and pigments used in cosmetics and personal care products.

This ingredient is in a group of colourants known as Iron Oxides, which are compounds of iron and oxygen.
Iron oxides include CI 77491 (red), CI 77492 (yellow) and CI 77499 (black) as the base colours, which are produced through different applications of heat in processes known as thermal decomposition, precipitation and calcination.
Although these iron oxides can be found in nature, they can contain impurities such as manganese or other organic material, which is why the synthetically-produced versions are considered safer for use in personal care products.
These compounds have a long history of use as colourants in cosmetics, and are considered safe for use by the FDA.

Black iron oxide is a fine powdered pigment.
Iron oxides are graded safe for cosmetic use and are produced synthetically in order to avoid the inclusion of impurities normally found in naturally occurring iron oxides including ferrous or ferric oxides, arsenic, lead and other poisonous substances.

APPLICATIONS OF BLACK IRON OXIDE:
Plastics: Low temperature processing polymers and non-oxidizing process conditions
Coatings: Liquid architectural and industrial coatings
Industrial: Cement and concrete
Iron oxide black is highly resistant to fading, to weather conditions and to alkaline substances.
Iron oxide black possesses good dyeing properties and fine hiding powers.
Iron oxide black Can be mixed with all pigments and can be used in combination with oil paint, glue paint, casein paint, lime paint and silicate paint.

CI 77499 is a black iron oxide containing iron and oxygen and is used in cosmetics as a coloring agent.
Iron oxide black is naturally available from the mineral magnetite however, for use in cosmetics, Iron oxide black is synthetically made to filter out any impurities.
In general, iron oxides are long-lasting, once they are applied, they usually don’t need to be reapplied.

CI 77499 is used as a colorant in various cosmetics such as eye shadows, blushes, lipsticks, mineral makeup, etc.
Iron oxide black is one of the main pigment for matching skin tones in foundations, concealers, and other face makeup.

DESCRIPTION:
Iron(II,III) oxide, or black iron oxide, is the chemical compound with formula Fe3O4.
Iron oxide black occurs in nature as the mineral magnetite.
Iron oxide black is one of a number of iron oxides, the others being iron(II) oxide (FeO), which is rare, and iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) which also occurs naturally as the mineral hematite.


CAS Number: 1317-61-9
European Community (EC) Number: 235-442-5
IUPAC Name: oxoiron;oxo(oxoferriooxy)iron
Molecular Formula: Fe3O4


Iron oxide black contains both Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions and is sometimes formulated as FeO ∙ Fe2O3.
This iron oxide is encountered in the laboratory as a black powder.
Iron oxide black exhibits permanent magnetism and is ferrimagnetic, but is sometimes incorrectly described as ferromagnetic.

Its most extensive use is as a black pigment (see: Mars Black).
For this purpose, Iron oxide black is synthesized rather than being extracted from the naturally occurring mineral as the particle size and shape can be varied by the method of production.

Iron oxide black containing iron and oxygen and is used in cosmetics as a coloring agent.
Iron oxide black is naturally available from the mineral magnetite however, for use in cosmetics, Iron oxide black is synthetically made to filter out any impurities.
In general, iron oxides are long-lasting, once they are applied, they usually don’t need to be reapplied.

Iron Oxide Black is an inorganic, high-purity pigment.
Particle size range of Iron Oxide Black is 0.3-5.0 micrometer.
Mean particle size of Iron Oxide Black is 2.27 micrometer.

Iron Oxide Black Provides superior color purity & saturation.
Iron Oxide Black has Outstanding dispersibility, no aggregate formation.










PREPARATION OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Heated iron metal interacts with steam to form iron oxide and hydrogen gas.
3Fe+4H2O⟶Fe3O4+4H2
Under anaerobic conditions, ferrous hydroxide (Fe(OH)2) can be oxidized by water to form magnetite and molecular hydrogen.
This process is described by the Schikorr reaction:
3Fe(OH)2ferrous hydroxide⟶Fe3O4magnetite+H2hydrogen+2H2Owater
This works because crystalline magnetite (Fe3O4) is thermodynamically more stable than amorphous ferrous hydroxide (Fe(OH)2 ).

The Massart method of preparation of magnetite as a ferrofluid, is convenient in the laboratory: mix iron(II) chloride and iron(III) chloride in the presence of sodium hydroxide.
A more efficient method of preparing magnetite without troublesome residues of sodium, is to use ammonia to promote chemical co-precipitation from the iron chlorides: first mix solutions of 0.1 M FeCl3•6H2O and FeCl2•4H2O with vigorous stirring at about 2000 rpm.

The molar ratio of the FeCl3:FeCl2 should be about 2:1. Heat the mix to 70 °C, then raise the speed of stirring to about 7500 rpm and quickly add a solution of NH4OH (10 volume %).
A dark precipitate of nanoparticles of magnetite forms immediately.
In both methods, the precipitation reaction relies on rapid transformation of acidic iron ions into the spinel iron oxide structure at pH 10 or higher.

Controlling the formation of magnetite nanoparticles presents challenges: the reactions and phase transformations necessary for the creation of the magnetite spinel structure are complex.
The subject is of practical importance because magnetite particles are of interest in bioscience applications such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), in which iron oxide magnetite nanoparticles potentially present a non-toxic alternative to the gadolinium-based contrast agents currently in use.
However, difficulties in controlling the formation of the particles, still frustrate the preparation of superparamagnetic magnetite particles, that is to say: magnetite nanoparticles with a coercivity of 0 A/m, meaning that they completely lose their permanent magnetisation in the absence of an external magnetic field.

The smallest values currently reported for nanosized magnetite particles is Hc = 8.5 A m−1, whereas the largest reported magnetization value is 87 Am2 kg−1 for synthetic magnetite.
Pigment quality Fe3O4, so called synthetic magnetite, can be prepared using processes that use industrial wastes, scrap iron or solutions containing iron salts (e.g. those produced as by-products in industrial processes such as the acid vat treatment (pickling) of steel):
Oxidation of Fe metal in the Laux process where nitrobenzene is treated with iron metal using FeCl2 as a catalyst to produce aniline:
C6H5NO2 + 3 Fe + 2 H2O → C6H5NH2 + Fe3O4
Oxidation of FeII compounds, e.g. the precipitation of iron(II) salts as hydroxides followed by oxidation by aeration where careful control of the pH determines the oxide produced.
Reduction of Fe2O3 with hydrogen:
3Fe2O3 + H2 → 2Fe3O4 +H2O
Reduction of Fe2O3 with CO:

3Fe2O3 + CO → 2Fe3O4 + CO2
Production of nano-particles can be performed chemically by taking for example mixtures of FeII and FeIII salts and mixing them with alkali to precipitate colloidal Fe3O4.
The reaction conditions are critical to the process and determine the particle size.

Iron(II) carbonate can also be thermally decomposed into Iron(II,III):
3FeCO3 → Fe3O4 + 2CO2 + CO


REACTIONS OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Reduction of magnetite ore by CO in a blast furnace is used to produce iron as part of steel production process:
Fe3O4+4CO⟶3Fe+4CO2

Controlled oxidation of Fe3O4 is used to produce brown pigment quality γ-Fe2O3 (maghemite):
2Fe3O4⏟magnetite+12O2⟶ 3( −Fe2O3)⏟maghemite
More vigorous calcining (roasting in air) gives red pigment quality α-Fe2O3 (hematite):
2Fe3O4⏟magnetite+12O2⟶ 3( −Fe2O3)⏟hematite

STRUCTURE OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Fe3O4 has a cubic inverse spinel group structure which consists of a cubic close packed array of oxide ions where all of the Fe2+ ions occupy half of the octahedral sites and the Fe3+ are split evenly across the remaining octahedral sites and the tetrahedral sites.

Both FeO and γ-Fe2O3 have a similar cubic close packed array of oxide ions and this accounts for the ready interchangeability between the three compounds on oxidation and reduction as these reactions entail a relatively small change to the overall structure.
Fe3O4 samples can be non-stoichiometric.

The ferrimagnetism of Fe3O4 arises because the electron spins of the FeII and FeIII ions in the octahedral sites are coupled and the spins of the FeIII ions in the tetrahedral sites are coupled but anti-parallel to the former.
The net effect is that the magnetic contributions of both sets are not balanced and there is a permanent magnetism.

In the molten state, experimentally constrained models show that the iron ions are coordinated to 5 oxygen ions on average.
There is a distribution of coordination sites in the liquid state, with the majority of both FeII and FeIII being 5-coordinated to oxygen and minority populations of both 4- and 6-fold coordinated iron.


Fe3O4 is ferrimagnetic with a Curie temperature of 858 K (585 °C).
There is a phase transition at 120 K (−153 °C), called Verwey transition where there is a discontinuity in the structure, conductivity and magnetic properties.
This effect has been extensively investigated and whilst various explanations have been proposed, it does not appear to be fully understood.

While it has much higher electrical resistivity than iron metal (96.1 nΩ m), Fe3O4's electrical resistivity (0.3 mΩ m) is significantly lower than that of Fe2O3 (approx kΩ m).
This is ascribed to electron exchange between the FeII and FeIII centres in Fe3O4

Fe3O4 is used as a black pigment and is known as C.I pigment black 11 (C.I. No.77499) or Mars Black.



Iron oxide black is used as a source of Fe in ceramic applications, particularly in glazing where price and its black raw color are important.
Iron oxide provide the color in glaze after being fired at high temperatures.
High purity, low heavy metal content grades are available.
Our black iron powder products have 98% or more Fe3O4.

Iron oxide black powder is also used as a colorant for a wide range of non-ceramic products.

Some iron oxide pigments are widely used in the cosmetic field.
They are considered to be nontoxic, moisture resistant, and nonbleeding.
Iron oxides graded safe for cosmetic use are produced synthetically in order to avoid the inclusion of impurities normally found in naturally occurring iron oxides.

Iron oxide black or magnetite is also used for corrosion resistance purposes.
Iron oxide black is also used in anti-corrosion paints (used in many bridges, and Eiffel tower).

Iron oxides are used as contrast agent in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, to shorten proton relaxation times, (T1, T2 and T2).
The super paramagnetic contrast agents are composed of a water insoluble crystalline magnetic core, usually magnetite (Fe3O4).

The mean core diameter ranges from 4 to 10 nm.
This crystalline core is often surrounded by a layer of dextrin or starch derivatives.
The total size of the particle is expressed as the mean hydrated particle diameter


USES OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Fe3O4 is used as a catalyst in the Haber process and in the water-gas shift reaction.
The latter uses an HTS (high temperature shift catalyst) of iron oxide stabilised by chromium oxide.
This iron–chrome catalyst is reduced at reactor start up to generate Fe3O4 from α-Fe2O3 and Cr2O3 to CrO3.

Bluing is a passivation process that produces a layer of Fe3O4 on the surface of steel to protect it from rust. Along with sulfur and aluminium, it is an ingredient in steel-cutting thermite.

Medical uses:
Nano particles of Fe3O4 are used as contrast agents in MRI scanning.

Ferumoxytol, sold under the brand names Feraheme and Rienso, is an intravenous Fe3O4 preparation for treatment of anemia resulting from chronic kidney disease.
Ferumoxytol is manufactured and globally distributed by AMAG Pharmaceuticals.

Biological occurrence:
Magnetite has been found as nano-crystals in magnetotactic bacteria (42–45 nm) and in the beak tissue of homing pigeons.


APPLICATIONS OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Iron Oxide Black is widely used in industry as pigments, processing aids, raw material component.
Iron Oxide Black is used in the following products: coating products, fillers, putties, plasters, modeling clay, non-metal surface treatment products, metal surface treatment products, inks and toners.
Iron Oxide Black is used in machine washing liquids/detergents, automotive care products, paints, coatings, adhesives, fragrances and air fresheners, cooling liquids in refrigerators, oil-based electric heaters.

Iron Oxide Black provide cosmetics with a specific colour, and it can range from pink to black.
Iron Oxide Black can be used by itself in bodycare applications or to deepen the tone of other colours in various applications.
Iron Oxide Black can be used for tinting cosmetics such as foundations, blushes, eyeshadows, eye liners as well as to colour soaps.

Iron Oxide Black has been proven to be stable in soaps and will not change shape or colour in cold process or melt and pour soaps.
Here are other black oxide powder uses that you might want to create:
• Concealer
• Exfoliator
• Eyeliner
• Eyeshadow
• Foundation
• Lashes liner
• Loose powder
• Peel-off Mask



HOW TO USE IRON OXIDE BLACK?
For melt and pour soap, the black oxide powder pigment should first ideally be mixed thoroughly with glycerine to get rid of speckling and can then simply be added to the melt and pour soap.
Also, you should shake all products containing this powder properly to ensure the colour is well-mixed.
One of the drawbacks though is that it tends to clump and you will need to be especially careful to de-clump first before adding to your recipe.

To de-clump beforehand, use a hand mixer to pre-mix your pigment in with a deodorised fixed oil, such as sweet almond oil or olive oil, before adding to your soap.
This will help disperse and break up any clumps.
The coloured oil can then be added to the soap batter at trace when making cold process soap.


CHARACTERISTIC OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
• High opacity
• Strong tinting strength
• Easy dispersibility
• Excellent light fastness
• Perfect weather resistance







BENEFITS OF IRON OXIDE BLACK:
Aside from its colour, black oxide powder provides excellent protection against harmful UV radiation that even conventional sunscreens may not have.
When applied to skincare, they offer a beautiful hue that can make the product more aesthetically attractive and soften the appearance of blemishes on the skin.
Black oxide powder also reduces the white cast that many mineral formulae can leave behind.

Synthetic iron oxide, brown, specially suited for colouring of cement, concrete, asphalt, screed, bricks, mortar and plaster, and for the production of abrasives.


CONCRETE PIGMENTATION:
Iron oxides are water-insoluble pigments with a good alkali fastness and excellent light fastness. Considering these characteristics and their low price, they are considered the best pigments for concrete pigmentation.
The quantity of pigment used varies usually from 3 % to 5 % of the weight of the cement since inerts do not take part in the pigmentation.
A maximum limit of 7 % can be reached if a more intense colour is required without affecting the mechanical resistance of the finished product.
In order to obtain the best final colouring it is preferable to mix the components in the following sequence: first of all inerts, then pigments and finally cement and water.

VARIATION OF COLOUR SHADE IN TIME:
When preparing coloured concrete it is extremely important to pay attention to the water/cement ratio of the mixture, ratio that affects the shade of colour.
A brighter coloured finished product is obtained increasing the quantity of water but at the same time the mechanical resistaince and weather fastness is reduced.
However in time the superficial layer of the finished products is subject to wear down which enhances the colour of the inert, consequently there is a change in the shade of colour independently from the pigments used.

EFFLORESCENCE:
It is a physical-chemical phenomenon produced by the calcium hydrate which is in the cement and is water-soluble.
It can occur during the drying process but also later when humidity occurs.
In fact the calcium hydrate tends to migrate towards the surface of the finished product and, reacting with the carbon dioxide in the air, forms white patches of calcium carbonate which are more visible in darker colours.

Iron oxides are insoluble in water and do not affect the above mentioned phenomenon, which can be reduced with the use of specific additives.
The quality of the pigment, the right dosage of the components, the valid production technology and the use of additives are the basis of the best result in time of a coloured concrete finished product.

Chemically produced pure iron oxide pigments are excellently lightfast, opaque and stable in any medium.
Iron oxide pigments are especially recommended for outside applications, in cement and lime.
Color range is equivalent to earth colors, from yellow to dark violet-brown.

Most of our products such as the oxides are produced to be natural identical in a laboratory.
The reason for this is that a natural oxide would not fit the FDA requirement for the minimium in heavy metal contents.
Soils naturally contain heavy metals so any oxide must be purified for cosmetic use.
Iron oxides in nature (dirt) are often loaded with toxic metals like lead, arsenic, mercury, antimony and selenium.

The FDA stepped in to regulate cosmetic colorants so the level of toxic metal present are present in such low concentrations that they are considered “safe.”
In fact, only synthetically prepared iron oxides are approved for use in cosmetics in this country. Since 1970 Oxides and Ultramarines have been manufactured in labs so assure purity.
The lab manufactured pigments have the same molecular structure as their natural identical.


The colour pigments used in cosmetics are often matt.
Since the colour spectrum of iron oxides is varied and these tones can be mixed individually, a multitude of colour nuances are created.
Iron oxides are also the main constituents in mineral powders and foundations.

Of course we have data sheets for all pigments available.
They are filled in environmentally friendly screwed glass.
Iron oxide pigments are the most often used colour pigments in the world.
They are available in the primary colours yellow (FeOOH), black (Fe3O4) and red (Fe2O3), but also as a mixture in orange, beige and brown shades.

Iron oxide pigments produce vibrant, durable colors in concrete and other cementitious materials. Iron oxide pigments are tested and certified by the American Society for the Testing of Materials to be light-fast, insoluble, and alkali resistant (ASTM C-979).
This means iron oxide pigments will not deteriorate over time and will be readily visible in the concrete.
Due to their small size, ten times smaller than cement particles, iron oxide pigments disperse in the mix, embed in the cement matrix, and give the appearance of uniform coloration.

Iron oxide pigments will not affect the strength or workability of concrete when used in standard doses.
They offer a host of benefits to the concrete contractor, architect, ready mix concrete producer, and manufactured concrete product producer.
Iron oxide pigments can drastically improve the value of concrete.
By adding color, concrete is more attractive and provides color-related properties such as solar reflectiveness.

Solomon Colors uses only the highest quality synthetic iron oxide to blend dry, liquid, and granular pigment for concrete and mortar colors.
Solomon Colors is proud to blend and process all dry, liquid, and granular pigments in Springfield, IL and Rialto, CA.
Solomon Colors provides industry leading iron oxide pigments, automated dispensers, and customer service to the ready mix concrete producer, architectural precast concrete producer, or block and paver manufacturer.

Chemically produced, pure iron-oxide pigments are extremely lightfast, opaque and stable in any medium.
Iron oxide pigments are especially recommended for outside applications such as in cement and lime. Color range is similar to earth tones: from pale yellow to dark violet-brown.

THE HISTORY OF IRON OXIDE PIGMENT:
Iron Oxides have been used since prehistoric times (mainly the red shades).
Iron Oxides were first used by cavemen to leave testimony of their presence in cave dwellings including animal drawings to ensure bountiful hunting.
The first cave drawing was found in the Saubia Mountains (Germany), Lascaux (France) and Altamira (Spain).
Iron Oxides were painted between 40,000 and 10,000 BC.
Iron Oxide rich mineral clays provided the colors used.

Iron Oxide was later found in Neolithic ceramic, Renaissance or Impressionist paintings, bricks of early cities, etc.
Natural Iron Oxides are still used nowadays.
However, synthetic types are much more popular nowadays because of their higher pigment performance.
Their widespread use is due to their natural shade and outstanding chemical, physical and technical properties, which make them essential in many applications.

Iron oxide Pigments are widely used as inexpensive, durable pigments with large number of benefits and application around wide range of industries and products.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF IRON OXIDE PIGMENT:
The Laux process:
Reaction of black: 9 Fe + 4 C6H5NO2 + 4 H2O3 Fe3O4 + 4 C6H5NH2
Reaction of yellow: 2 Fe + C6H5NO2 + 2 H2O2 FeO(OH) + C6H5NH2
Reaction of red: 2 Fe3O4 + ½ O2 3 Fe2O3

Initially, the Laux process was exclusively used to manufacture aniline (C6H5NH2) from nitrobenzene (C6H5NO2).
Only when in 1925 the chemist, Dr Laux, found out that the iron oxide, being a by-product of this reaction, could be used, subject to certain chemical conditions, as an iron oxide pigment with extremely high colour strength.

This process is primarily used for black iron oxide (e.g. Black 330), however, the reaction to get iron oxide yellow (e.g. Yellow 420) is also possible.
From black iron oxide, it is also possible to produce red iron oxide pigments (e.g. Red 110) in an additional reaction stage.

The Precipitation process:
2 FeSO4 + 4 NaOH + ½ O22 FeO(OH) + 2 Na2SO4 + H2O
In the precipitation process, iron sulphate is oxidized to yellow iron oxide pigment in an alkaline environment with atmospheric oxygen.
In this case, similar to the Penniman process, a yellow nucleus pigment is necessary in order to obtain yellow pigments of a high quality.

The Penniman process:
2 Fe + ½ O2 + 3 H2O 2 FeO(OH) + 2 H2
In the Penniman process, iron scrap is oxidized to yellow iron oxide in a sulphate acid medium in the presence of atmospheric oxygen.
In this case, iron sulphate acts as a catalyst.
As to obtain yellow pigments of a high quality, yellow nuclei are furthermore necessary.

Eco – Friendly:
Synthetic red, yellow, orange, brown and black iron oxides are non-toxic and made from 60% post-industrial recycled content processed.

Synthetic red iron oxide is the most common colorant in ceramics and has the highest amount of iron.
It is available commercially as a soft and very fine powder made by grinding ore material or heat processing ferrous/ferric sulphate or ferric hydroxide.
During firing all irons normally decompose and produce similar colors in glazes and clay bodies (although they have differing amounts of Fe metal per gram of powder).

CAS: 1309-37-1;1317-60-8;1332-37-2
EINECS 215-168-2;215-275-4;215-570-8
Name: Iron(III) oxide
Molecular Formula: Fe2O3
Molecular Weight: 159.69

Red iron oxide is available in many different shades from a bright light red to a deep red maroon, these are normally designated by a scale from about 120-180 (this number designation should be on the bags from the manufacturer, darker colors are higher numbers), however, in ceramics these different grades should all fire to a similar temperature since they have the same amount iron.
The different raw colors are a product of the degree of grinding.

In oxidation firing iron is very refractory, so much so that it is impossible, even in a highly melted frit, to produce a metallic glaze.
It is an important source for tan, red-brown, and brown colors in glazes and bodies.
Iron red colors, for example, are dependent on the crystallization of iron in a fluid glaze matrix and require large amounts of iron being present (eg. 25%).

The red color of terra cotta bodies comes from iron, typically around 5% or more, and depends of the body being porous.
As these bodies are fired to higher temperatures the color shifts to a deeper red and finally brown. The story is similar with medium fire bodies.

In reduction firing iron changes its personality to become a very active flux.
Iron glazes that are stable at cone 6-10 in oxidation will run off the ware in reduction.
The iron in reduction fired glazes is known for producing very attractive earthy brown tones.
Greens, greys and reds can also be achieved depending on the chemistry of the glaze and the amount of iron.
Ancient Chinese celadons, for example, contained around 2-3% iron.
Particulate iron impurities in reduction clay bodies can melt and become fluid during firing, creating specks that can bleed up through glazes.
This phenomenon is a highly desirable aesthetic in certain types of ceramics, when the particles are quite large the resultant blotch in the glaze surface is called a blossom.

Iron oxide can gel glaze and clay slurries making them difficult to work with (this is especially a problem where the slurry is deflocculated).
Iron oxide particles are very small, normally 100% of the material will pass a 325 mesh screen (this is part of the reason iron is such a nuisance dust).
As with other powders of exceedingly small particle size, agglomeration of the particles into larger ones can be a real problem.

These particles can resist break down, even a powerful electric mixer is not enough to disperse them (black iron oxide can be even more difficult).
In such cases screening a glaze will break them down.
However screening finer than 80 mesh is difficult, this is not fine enough to eliminate the speckles that iron can produce.
Thus ball milling may be the only solution if the speckle is undesired.

Red iron oxides are available in spheroidal, rhombohedral, and irregular particle shapes.
Some high purity grades are specially controlled for heavy metals and are used in drugs, cosmetics, pet foods, and soft ferrites.
Highly refined grades can have 98% Fe2O3 but typically red iron is about 95% pure and very fine (less than 1% 325 mesh).
Some grades of red iron do have coarser specks in them and this can result in unwanted specking in glaze and bodies (see picture).

High iron raw materials or alternate names: burnt sienna, crocus martis, Indian red, red ochre, red oxide, Spanish red.
Iron is the principal contaminant in most clay materials.
A low iron content, for example, is very important in kaolins used for porcelain.

One method of producing synthetic iron oxide is by burning solutions of Ferric Chloride (spent pickle liquor from the steel industry) to produce Hydrochloric Acid (their main product) and Hematite (a byproduct).
100% pure material contains 69.9% Fe.


Fe2O3, also known as hematite or Iron(III) oxide.
This comes from a natural source so the product has slight variation in color.

A red transparent powder of the three crystal system.
The particles are fine, the particle size is 0.01 to 0.05 μm, the specific surface area is large (10 times that of ordinary iron oxide red), the ultraviolet absorption is strong, and the light resistance and the atmospheric resistance are excellent.
When light is projected onto a paint film or plastic containing a transparent iron oxide red pigment, it is in a transparent state.
The relative density of 5.7g/cm3, the melting point of 1396. It is a new kind of iron pigment with unique properties.

Iron oxide red is dark red powder; Odorless, tasteless.
Iron oxide red is insoluble in water; Soluble in boiling hydrochloric acid.

Red iron oxide is the most common colorant in ceramics and has the highest amount of iron.
It is available commercially as a soft and very fine powder made by grinding ore material or heat processing ferrous/ferric sulphate or ferric hydroxide.
During firing all irons normally decompose and produce similar colors in glazes and clay bodies (although they have differing amounts of Fe metal per gram of powder).

Red iron oxide is available in many different shades from a bright light red at a deep red maroon, these are normally designated by a scale from about 120-180 (this number designation should be on the bags from the manufacturer, darker colors are higher numbers), however in ceramics these different grades should all fire to a similar temperature since they have the same amount iron.
The different raw colors are a product of the degree of grinding.

In oxidation firing iron is very refractory, so much so that it is impossible, even in a highly melted frit, to produce a metallic glaze.
It is an important source for tan, red-brown, and brown colors in glazes and bodies.
Iron red colors, for example, are dependent on the crystallization of iron in a fluid glaze matrix and require large amounts of iron being present (eg. 25%).
The red color of terra cotta bodies comes from iron, typically around 5% or more, and depends of the body being porous.
As these bodies are fired to higher temperatures the color shifts to a deeper red and finally brown.
The story is similar with medium fire bodies.

In reduction firing iron changes its personality to become a very active flux.
Iron glazes that are stable at cone 6-10 in oxidation will run off the ware in reduction.
The iron in reduction fired glazes is known for producing very attractive earthy brown tones.
Greens, greys and reds can also be achieved depending on the chemistry of the glaze and the amount of iron.
Ancient Chinese celadons, for example, contained around 2-3% iron.

Particulate iron impurities in reduction clay bodies can melt and become fluid during firing, creating specks that can bleed up through glazes.
This phenomenon is a highly desirable aesthetic in certain types of ceramics, when the particles are quite large the resultant blotch in the glaze surface is called a blossom.

Iron oxide red is mainly used for the transparent coloring of coins, but also for the coloring of paints, inks and plastics.
Iron oxide red is an inorganic pigment, which is used as an anti-rust pigment in the coating industry.
Iron oxide red is also used as a colorant for rubber, artificial marble, ground terrae, plastic, asbestos, artificial leather, leather paste and other colorants and fillers, precision instruments, polishing agent for optical glass, raw materials for producing magnetic material ferrite elements, and the like.

PREPARATION METHOD OF IRON OXIDE RED:
The preparation methods include wet method and dry method.
Wet products Crystal fine, soft particles, easy to grind, suitable for pigment.
Dry products crystallize large, hard particles, suitable for magnetic materials, polishing materials.

Wet method:
A certain amount of 5% ferrous sulfate solution is rapidly reacted with an excess of caustic soda solution (alkali excess is required to be 0. 04~0. 08g/mL), at room temperature into the air to make all the red brown ferric hydroxide colloidal solution, as the deposition of iron oxide nuclei.
The above crystal nucleus as the carrier, with ferrous sulfate as the medium, into the air, at 75~85 ℃, in the presence of metallic iron, ferrous sulfate and oxygen in the air, the formation of ferric oxide (ie, iron red) it is deposited on the crystal nucleus, and the sulfate in the solution interacts with the metal iron to regenerate the ferrous sulfate, and the ferrous sulfate is oxidized into iron red by air to continue the deposition, so that the cycle is to the end of the whole process to generate iron oxide red.
Dry method:
Nitric acid reacts with iron flakes to form ferrous nitrate, which is cooled to crystallize, dehydrated and dried.
After grinding, it is calcined at 600~700 ℃ for 8~10h, then washed with water and dried, the red iron oxide product was prepared by pulverization. Iron oxide red can also be obtained by calcining iron oxide yellow at 600 to 700 °c.

Yellow iron oxide, similar to ultramarines, is a colourant that has been extracted and sieved of dangerous impurities.
This colour adds a sense of happiness and can be used in body care applications or to deepen the tone of other colours in many applications.
For instance, colouring eyeshadows, foundations, and even soaps.
Yellow iron oxide has been successful in preserving the shape and colour in cold process or melt-and-pour soaps.

One of its disadvantages though is that Yellow iron oxide has a tendency to clump and you will need to be extra cautious to de-clump first before adding to your recipe.
To de-clump beforehand, use a hand mixer to pre-mix your colourant in with a purified fixed oil, such as olive oil, before adding to your soap.

Yellow iron oxide will help thaw and break up any clusters.
The coloured oil can be added to the soap batter at trace when making cold process soap.
For melt and pour soap, the iron oxide must be firstly mixed carefully with glycerine to avoid spattering.

Then, simply add Yellow iron oxide to the melt-and-pour soap.
Add this Yellow Iron Oxide to your bath and body products for a brighter look.
The 15g selection is packaged in a clear vial whereas bigger selections come packaged in reclosable ziplock standup pouches.
Caution: There may be a harmful reaction of the product with metals, such as aluminum, magnesium, potassium, zinc, lithium, sodium etc., at high temperatures.

Yellow iron oxide has Very high color brilliance and color purity.
Yellow iron oxide has Very opaque property.
For the calculation of the required pigments you can help yourself with the table, which you can find in the gallery pictures.
The best way is to mix a color dough with the wetting agent and water.

Yellow is the least color-stable form.
Yellow iron oxide is a synthetic material of very fine particle size (but not as fine as black or red).
Actual yellow iron oxides are around 85% Fe2O3 and about 12% LOI with some impurities (e.g. SiO2, CaO).

Theoretically, any form of iron could be used to source Fe in the fired ceramic product (of course they lose different amounts of volatiles on firing so they cannot be substituted gram-for-gram). However in practice this is not the case.
Yellow iron, in our tests, for example, does not stain a glaze but it does stain a clay body.
The reason is not apparent to us yet.

Yellow irons can be used where raw color or other raw properties are important to the manufacturing process or color of the unfired product and where a less messy material is desired. Yellow iron is not as fluffy and light as black, but more than red.
Iron oxide yellow does not agglomerate as badly as red, but more than black.
Iron oxide yellow is coarser in particle size and does leave some lighter colored residue on a 325 mesh screen (up to 8% in one specimen we tested whereas the others left zero).

Yellow iron is also used in paints, enamels, concrete colorants, plastics, rubber, and paper where permanent yellow is required.
Iron oxide yellow has excellent hiding power, absorbs ultraviolet light, is compatible with a broad range of vehicles, disperses well in aqueous and solvent systems, does not contain heavy metals.




Yellow Iron Oxide is a very versatile yellow.
Iron oxide yellow is considered a matte pigment.
Yellow Iron Oxide is a beautiful yellow with a variety of uses.
Yellow Iron Oxide ca easily be used alone, or use Iron oxide yellow to blend and add other oxides and micas for new shades and colors.

Iron Oxide is considered a great natural colorant, and they have been filtered of any potential harmful impurities.
Yellows and other iron oxides are very useful for tinting blushes, eye liners, eye shadows, lip colors, foundations, etc.
An essential colorants for your specialty make-up formulations.

Our colorants work amazing alone or along with other pigments and dyes.
Concentrations to be used vary on the formulation you are trying to make.
For example, liquid soap will require less colorant whereas compact powders will require much more.

All Iron Oxides are pigments that are widely used in all kinds of applications from technical uses to specialty formulations to make cosmetics and personal care.
Whether you are making face powders, foundations, blushes, eyeshadows, salt or sugar scrubs, you will always find iron oxides perfect for tinting and coloring.
Iron oxides, like our yellow iron oxide are perfect for making soaps and make gorgeous swirl soaps too.

Black Iron Oxide is particularly useful, similar to titaniun dioxide, as it is so helpful in creating specialty shades and tints.
Iron oxide yellow is dispersible in water and oil.
Care must be taken to mix using high shearing force to get it to blend. (Use a stick blender for best results.)

For dry applications, simply mix with your favorite base clay, talc or titanium dioxide or other dry medium.

Typical Usage: Just a 1/2 oz will tint / color about 20 lbs of a product depending on the tint / intensity of the color you want.
Iron oxide yellow is advisable to add a very small amount at a time until you get your desired result.

Colors can be mixed together to create new colors.
Blend with titanium dioxide or black iron oxide for even ,more tints and colors.
You can make all kinds of tints and shades.
Try blending with clays,talcs or titanium dioxide to make all kinds of colors.
Keep in mind that when you blend the iron oxides with these materials you will often find that the colors have different various undertones.

Caution - When using yellow iron oxide, do not expose it to prolonged high temperatures at or above 300 degrees F.
Yellow Iron Oxide has a tendency to drift to a red color when under prolonged heat exposure above 300 F.

Yellow iron oxide is a synthetic material of very fine particle size (but not as fine as black or red).
Actual yellow iron oxides are around 85% Fe2O3 and about 12% LOI with some impurities (e.g. SiO2, CaO).

Theoretically, any form of iron could be used to source Fe in the fired ceramic product (of course they lose different amounts of volatiles on firing so they cannot be substituted gram-for-gram). However in practice this is not the case.
Yellow iron, in our tests, for example, does not stain a glaze but it does stain a clay body.
The reason is not apparent to us yet.

Yellow irons can be used where raw color or other raw properties are important to the manufacturing process or color of the unfired product and where a less messy material is desired. Yellow iron is not as fluffy and light as black, but more than red.

ISETHIONATE


Isethionates are esters of long-chain aliphatic carboxylic acids (C8 – C18) with isethionic acid (2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid) or salts thereof, such as ammonium isethionate or sodium isethionate.
Isethionates are also referred to as acyl isethionates or acyloxyethanesulfonates.
Like the taurides, isethionates are a class of particularly mild anionic surfactants which, unlike ordinary soaps, retain their washing-active properties even in hard water.


Isethionates are obtained on an industrial scale reacting mixtures of carboxylic acids with salts of isethionic acid under acidic catalysis e. g. with methanesulfonic acid.
The mixtures of carboxylic acids are obtained from the hydrolysis of animal fats (tallow) or vegetable oils, preferably coconut oil, but also palm oil, soybean oil or castor oil.
Isethionates are solids which are often mixed with fatty acids (up to 30% by weight) to lower their freezing point.


Despite its low water solubility (100ppm at 25 °C), the lower-priced sodium cocoylisethionate has found more widespread use than its well water-soluble ammonium salt (> 25 wt.% at 25 °C).
To solubilize the sparsely soluble isethionates and taurides, the formation of mixtures with amphoteric surfactants (such as cocamidopropyl betaine) are proposed.
From such mixtures, it is possible to prepare liquid, clear and transparent aqueous concentrates which are liquid at room temperature.


Isethionates are characterized by excellent skin compatibility, excellent foaming (even in hard water), good cleansing properties and a pleasant skin feel.
Isethionates are non-toxic and readily biodegradable.
However, in contrast to the taurides, Isethionates are not long-term stable outside a pH range of 5 to 8.
