Icumsa 600 1200 : Known As Brown Sugar
It is less refined and is produced after the first crystallization of sugar cane. Raw brown sugar from sugar cane, when fully refined, contains about 70% white sugar.
Often used in the production of alcohol, baking, and by industries that need a more natural, less processed sugar. Known for its strong molasses flavor and rich color, making it ideal for products that benefit from these qualities, such as rum and dark spirits.
Icumsa 150 : Known As Crystal Sugar
It has a light brown or golden hue. The lower the ICUMSA value, the whiter and purer the sugar. Commonly used in the production of baked goods, confectionery, and syrups. Also consumed directly in regions where such sugar is preferred over completely white sugar.
It is partially refined, meaning it undergoes fewer refining steps than white sugar (ICUMSA <45). This allows it to retain a slightly higher molasses content, contributing to its color and flavor. Suitable for industrial use, such as in food and beverage manufacturing.
Icumsa 45 : Known As White Sugar
The sugar has a white, sparkling appearance with a color rating of 45 ICUMSA units, which is the lowest in the white sugar category. This color grade is achieved through an extensive refining process.
The moisture content in ICUMSA 45 sugar is typically very low, around 0.04%, contributing to its longer shelf life and stability. It has a fine granular consistency [0.5 to 1.0 mm] which makes it highly soluble, a desired property for various industrial applications.
Urea
Urea is a chemical compound with the formula CO(NH₂)₂. It is a colorless, odorless, and highly soluble solid. It is also widely used in agriculture and industry. In fertilizers, it provides plants with nitrogen, an essential nutrient for their growth.
Automotive-grade urea, also known as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), is a high-purity solution of 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water. It is primarily used in Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems in diesel vehicles, especially those with newer, more environmentally friendly engines.
Sodium Carbonate
Sodium carbonate is an inorganic compound with the chemical Formula Na2CO3 is a white, odorless, water soluble salt commonly known as soda ash or washing soda. Density is 2.54 gram/cm3
The glass industry is the largest consumer of sodium carbonate. Also used in soaps-detergents, printing-dyeing and paper-textile industries.
Sodium Hydroxide
Sodium hydroxide with the chemical formula Na+OH- also known as caustic soda and sodium hydrate, is an inorganic, highly alkaline and corrosive chemical compound.
It is widely used in making of wood pulp and paper, soap manufacturing, extracting alumina from bauxite, textile industry, in water treatment to pH control and removal of heavy metals.
Cement
Cement is a finely ground powder, is primarily made from limestone, clay, shells, and silica. When mixed with water, it undergoes a chemical reaction called hydration, which makes it harden and gain strength.
Cement is graded based on its compressive strength (measured in megapascals or MPa) at 28 days of curing. The grades are:
32.5 Grade Cement (general, construction),
42.5 Grade Cement (residential buildings),
52.5 Grade Cement (bridges, high-rise buildings)
Solar Panel
A solar panel, also known as a photovoltaic (PV) panel or solar cell panel, is a device that converts sunlight into electricity. It's essentially a collection of photovoltaic cells, typically made of silicon, that capture the sun's energy (photons) and generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect.
It generate direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted to alternating current (AC) for use in homes and businesses.
The efficiency of solar panels, which is the percentage of sunlight converted into electricity, varies depending on the type of panel and other factors.
Wood Wool Firelighter
Wood wool is a natural, biodegradable product composed of thin wood shavings or fibers, often made from softwood like pine or spruce.
These shavings are twisted into a compact form and then dipped in wax,
creating a product that ignites easily and burns steadily. The natural
properties of wood wool, combined with the added fuel of wax, make these fire starters highly effective.
Once ignited, wood wool firestarters burn for an extended period,
providing ample time to light larger pieces of wood or charcoal. This
makes them particularly useful for starting fires in wood stoves,
fireplaces, and campfires.
These firestarters are suitable for a variety of uses, including indoor
and outdoor fire-starting. They are lightweight and portable, making
them a great addition to camping gear or emergency kits.
