Strontium Carbonate

Tara Gum is a natural chemical that is obtained from Caesalpinia Spinosa seeds. The endosperm of the Tara tree is what is used to produce the chemical. The tree is mainly grown in Peru and that is why the chemical is otherwise known as Peruvian Carob. It belongs to the group of chemicals known as Galactomannan. These chemicals are polysaccharides made up of mannose and galactose. Tara Gum is prepared through the process of treating the seeds with sulfuric acid. There is also a roasting method that helps separate germs from the endosperm. The chemical is majorly used as an additive that helps in thickening and stabilizing foods.

Sorbic Acids are organic compounds that occur naturally and serve as food preservatives. The Potassium salt of a Sorbic acid is called Potassium Sorbate. It is used in the food industry in the preservation of food and wine. It is also used for preserving personal-care products and toiletries. Potassium Sorbate is found naturally in berries. Meanwhile, commercial Potassium Sorbate is manufactured synthetically. It is made from the treatment of Sorbic Acid with Potassium hydroxide. The chemical formula of Potassium Sorbate is C6H7KO2.

Sodium Tripolyphosphate is an inorganic chemical. It’s the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is a triphosphoric acid’s conjugate base. It is widely used as a component in various residential and industrial products, particularly detergents. Its widespread use is blamed for the environmental problems connected with eutrophication. It has the chemical formula Na5P3O10. It is produced in the laboratory by heating a stoichiometric mixture of disodium phosphate and monosodium phosphate under carefully controlled conditions.

Sodium Sulfate Anhydrous is an inorganic compound having the formula Na2SO4. It is insoluble in ethanol and soluble in glycerol, water, and hydrogen iodide. Anhydrous Sodium Sulfate is known as the rare mineral thenardite.
