What Is An Additive
Apr 11, 2023
Additives include various chemical additives such as feed additives, food additives, concrete additives, engine oil additives, etc.
feed
Refers to feed that has been industrially processed and produced for animal consumption, including single feed, additive premixed feed, concentrated feed, formula feed, and concentrate supplement.
food
Food additives refer to chemically synthesized or natural substances added to food to improve its quality, color, aroma, and taste, as well as to meet the needs of preservation and processing technology. Food additives can generally not be food and may not necessarily have nutritional value, but must comply with the concept defined above, that is, they do not affect the nutritional value of food and have the function of preventing food spoilage, enhancing food sensory properties, or improving food quality.
engine oil
A protective agent that can be mixed with engine oil to improve engine life.
The car additives sold in the market are very messy. There are many additives containing harmful substances such as lead, zinc, chlorine, molybdenum, phosphorus, graphite, etc. The purpose of this type of product is to treat engine oil, hoping to increase its wear resistance by changing its viscosity and composition. However, in actual use, it poses great harm, mainly due to mechanical corrosion, which can easily lead to blockage of the oil circuit and filter, causing the failure of the three-way catalytic converter and causing air pollution. This type of additive has long been explicitly prohibited abroad. The National Bureau of Technical Supervision and the National Environmental Protection Administration are also preparing to issue a document prohibiting the sale of such products in China. It is best for consumers to choose products certified by relevant national departments or tested by authoritative institutions when choosing automotive additives.
Gas
Used for enhancing the efficiency of propane and natural gas, it can increase the volatilization of propane and the combustion temperature of natural gas, and can increase the combustion temperature of natural gas by 400
-At 600 ℃, it can completely replace the application of acetylene and propane in the industrial industry.
