Firming agent

Abstract: The invention discloses an antibiotic water paint and a preparation method thereof. The water paint comprises components with weight percent as follows: 5-15% of deionized water, 0.5-5% of bacteriostat, 0.05-1.0% of defoaming agent, 3-15% of dispersant, 10-25% of nanophase materials, 30-70% of water-base resin dispersoid, 0.5-10% of adhesion resin or plasticiser, 0.3-5% of wetting agent, 0.1-1.0%of flatting agent, 0-1.0% of thickening agent, 0.05-1.0% of pH regulator, 0-15% of paint or colorant, 0-8% of additive with specific function and 1-10% of firming agent. The components are subjected to mixing, stirring and viscosity regulating according to certain processes so as to prepare the water paint with even distribution. The water paint can be used for children plastic products and all products related to plastic, and also can be used in the fields of metal, carpentry, paper products, inner-wall and outer-wall paints, and the like.

Abstract: The invention is a kind of flexible ceram wearing and heat resisting heavy corrosion preventing paint, which is made up of epoxy resin and several kinds of ceram powder, rust-protection paint and firming agent, the weights of each ingredient are: (1) epoxy resin: 100; (2) additive: 50-120; (3) rust protection paint: 8-25; (4) ceram powder: 100-200; (5) compound solvent: 40-70; paint: firming agent=(35-50):1. The paint needn't base coat, it can be painted directly or brushed on the surface of metal under normal temperature, it has excellent wearing and corrosion prevention performance, impact resisting performance and flexibility, it can insulate acid, alkali, salt, saline water. The surface is smooth; it can be applied to oil pipe, oil pot, and chemical device, ship, wheel vane, pump, dust catcher, etc.

Abstract: Dried foods generally show poor rehydration ability and changes in the product properties. In this work, strawberries, used as a model food, were processed using osmotic dehydration (OD) followed by freeze drying (FD) to investigate the effects on the sample colour, texture, microstructure and rehydration. For the first time, a new approach was implemented by adding firming agents (FA) in the osmotic solution to strengthen the cell walls and applying ultrasounds (US) during the pre-treatment to enhance the process mass transfer. FA and US have been implemented often separately but never combined. The resulting samples were then further dried using FD. This strategy revealed to be successful in improving the properties of dried foods compared to FD solely: rehydration capacity was enhanced; colour was better retained, showing colour coefficients closer to the fresh fruit; texture was largely improved, exhibiting the same mechanical properties of the raw material; microstructure was well preserved.

Abstract: The invention discloses a conductive powder coating, comprising the following materials based on the parts by weight: 50-95 parts of binder, 0-45 parts of filler, 1-50 parts of conductive additive, 0-10 parts of tinting pigment, 0-5 parts of additive and 0-45 parts of toughening additive. The binder is gross amount of resin and corresponding firming agent; the resin can be vibrin, epoxy, (methyl) acrylics and urethane resin; and the firming agent for cross linking reacting with the resin can be bifunctional monofunctional and/or polyfunctional oxide, carboxylic acid, dicyandiamide, phenolic resin and amino resin. Compared with the prior art, the invention improves mechanical indexs such as the adhesive attraction, the flatting resistance property, and the like of the coating to steel pipes and enhances anticorrosion property of steel pipes.
