FD&C RED 40 Powder, Allura Red AC
Allura Red AC is a water soluble red azo dye that goes by several names, including FD&C Red 40. It is used as a food dye and has the E number E129. In solution, its maximum absorbance lies at about 504 nm (Absorbs green color). In the United States, Allura Red AC is approved by the FDA for use in cosmetics, drugs, and food. It is used in some tattoo inks and is used in many products, such as cotton candy, soft drinks, cherry-flavored products, children’s medications, and dairy products. It is occasionally used to dye medicinal pills, such as the antihistamine fexofenadine, for purely aesthetic reasons. FDC RED 40 is by far the most commonly used red dye in the United States,[8] completely replacing amaranth (Red 2) and also replacing erythrosine (Red 3) in most applications due to the negative health effects of those two dyes.

Minimum-Maximum Thermometer with Hygrometer – Vintage Brass Finish
This analog climate monitoring instrument is designed for simultaneous tracking of current, maximum, and minimum temperatures along with relative humidity. The device incorporates a bimetallic strip mechanism for temperature measurement. As ambient temperature changes, the main indicator hand (black) moves accordingly, mechanically pushing the secondary red and blue markers to record the highest and lowest temperatures reached. The red hand indicates the daily maximum, while the blue hand captures the daily minimum. These markers are reset manually via two independent knurled metallic knobs mounted on the dome—bottom knob resets maximum, top knob resets minimum. The hygrometer continuously displays current relative humidity as a dial reading. This unit is wall-mountable via an integrated rear keyhole slot, requires no electrical power, and is suitable for environments where continuous monitoring of climate variability is necessary.

Reset maximum and minimum indicators daily using the provided knobs to ensure accurate tracking. Do not submerge or expose the unit to excessive moisture or corrosive chemicals, as this may affect sensor performance and cosmetic finish.
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid (EDTA)
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is a white odorless crystalline powder used as chelating agent in pulp & paper, cleaning, chemical processing, agriculture and water treatment.
Acid EDTA also known as edetic acid, is an aminopolycarboxylic acid with the formula [CH2N(CH2CO2H)2]2. This white, water-soluble solid is widely used to bind to iron (Fe2+/Fe3+) and calcium ions (Ca2+), forming water-soluble complexes even at neutral pH. It is thus used to dissolve Fe- and Ca-containing scale as well as to deliver iron ions under conditions where its oxides are insoluble.
In Textiles and paper industry, EDTA is mainly used to sequester (bind or confine) metal ions in aqueous solution. In the textile industry, it prevents metal ion impurities from modifying colors of dyed products. In the pulp and paper industry, EDTA inhibits the ability of metal ions, especially Mn2+, from catalyzing the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide, which is used in bleaching.
EDTA is added to some food as a preservative or stabilizer to prevent catalytic oxidative discoloration, which is catalyzed by metal ions.
EDTA can solubilize Fe3+ ions at or below near neutral pH. This property is useful in agriculture including hydroponics. However, given the pH dependence of ligand formation, EDTA is not helpful for improving iron solubility in above neutral soils. Otherwise, at near-neutral pH and above, iron(III) forms insoluble salts, which are less bioavailable to susceptible plant species.
EDTA is used extensively in the analysis of blood. It is an anticoagulant for blood samples for CBC/FBCs, where the EDTA chelates the calcium present in the blood specimen, arresting the coagulation process and preserving blood cell morphology.
In shampoos, cleaners, and other personal care products, EDTA salts are used as a sequestering agent to improve their stability in air.
Product Specifications
| CAS Number | 60-00-4 |
| Molecular Weight | 292.25 |
| Chemical Formula | C10H16O8N2 |
Applications:
- Pulp and paper: Sequesters metal ions to prevent discoloration
- Cleaning: Dissolves Fe- and Ca-containing scales
- Agriculture: Solubilizes Fe3+ ions in hydroponics
- Water treatment: Chelates metal ions
- Textile industry: Prevents metal ions from altering dye colors
- Food preservation: Stabilizes against oxidative discoloration
- Blood analysis: Anticoagulant in CBC/FBC tests
- Personal care: Enhances stability in shampoos and cleaners
Caution:
Ensure proper handling and usage as per the safety guidelines. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.
