Brilliant Blue FCF (FD&C Blue #1)
Brilliant blue FCF (FDC Blue #1) is a synthetic organic compound used primarily as a blue colorant for processed foods, medications, dietary supplements, and cosmetics. It is classified as a triarylmethane dye and is known under various names, such as FD&C Blue No. 1 or acid blue 9. It is denoted by E number E133 and has a color index of 42090. It has the appearance of a reddish-purple (indigo-blue) powder and is soluble in water and glycerol, with a maximum absorption at about 628 nanometers. It is one of the oldest FDA-approved color additives and is generally considered nontoxic and safe.
As a blue color, brilliant blue FCF is often found in cotton candy, ice cream, canned processed peas, packet soups, bottled food colorings, icings, ice pops, blueberry flavored products, children’s medications, dairy products, sweets, soft drinks, and drinks, especially the liqueur Blue Curaçao. It is also used in soaps, shampoos, mouthwash, and other hygiene and cosmetics applications.
Brilliant blue FCF is extensively used as a water tracer agent. Due to its ability to retain color for long periods, it outperforms other dye tracers. Additionally, brilliant blue FCF has a low toxicity level that is favorable for the environment.

Steam Trap (Water Trap) 4.75" Long
Condensation Removal: Once air is vented from the system, the trap must pass the condensate from the system, but not allow the steam to escape. Retaining the maximum amount of steam in the system allows the heat exchange to run at its most efficient and economical. If necessary, the trap allows for the condensate to be discharged immediately to maintain proper heat transfer.

Water Soluble Starch
This starch is modified so that it can dissolve in water easily and at high concentration. It is used to make laundry starch and starch-based glues such as those used on the back of the stamps. Starch-based glues are highly demanded due to their safety when handled by children. They are also easily washable if they spill on the floor or on clothing. For many years, starch-based glues have been the only or predominant type of glue used at homes and offices. This trend changed after the invention of polymers such as white glue (Polyvinyl acetate). Starch-based glues can also be mixed with pigments to make watercolors.
