The sinuses are air-filled cavities presents around the area of nose and eyes. Sinus allows natural ventilation and drainage. However, in chronic sinusitis cases, sinus linings gets inflamed due to chronic infections and nasal obstruction, that lead to blocking of natural drainage passageways. Major symptoms associated with chronic sinusitis are nasal congestion, facial pain or pressure, discolored nasal discharge, difficulty in breathing, headache, fatigue depression among others. More than 31 million people are affected with chronic sinusitis each year in the US. Steroid medication is the first line of treatment for sinusitis. However, most of the patients treated with medication have poor response rate which results in more number of patients opting for surgical approach. The increased number of patients undergoing surgery named Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) are performed to widen sinus passage. The FESS surgery have some complications such as scarring, new polyp growth to the patient which are eliminated through implantable sinus stents/spacers which are used following FESS procedure. These implants maintain patency of the sinuses and also help in controlled release of medication such as corticosteroid.

Trapping and mating disruption is a technique used for pest management. The technique is useful against certain insect pests, and involves the introduction of artificial sex hormones (pheromones) which disrupt the mate localizing ability of the insects. Trapping and mating disruption systems are advanced scientific tools developed for use by growers, and can be designed to target specific groups of insect pests for certain crops. The demand for trapping and mating disruption systems is expected to witness steady growth during the forecast period, owing to their advantages over conventional insecticides. Since trapping and mating disruption systems are designed to chemically stimulate a specific group of insects, they are safe for human, pets and the environment. Trapping and mating disruption systems do not affect the soil and water systems, unlike conventional pest control methods. Therefore, the outlook for the growth of the global trapping and mating disruption systems is expected to be largely positive during the forecast period.

A telemetry pouch is a wearable pouch used to hold a telemetry unit (cardiac monitor). It can be worn over or under the clothing so that it stays secure, and most are adjustable to fit different body sizes. It has soft straps for comfort around the neck; some have a strap for the torso, and most are adjustable to fit individual body sizes. Telemetry pouches are used to secure telemetry transmitters to patients, help prevent artifacts (static) in the information relay from the transmitter to the CMS, and help prevent transmitters from falling off or being subjected to food or drink spills. This pouch is used to carry telemetry equipment when a patient suffers a heart attack or undergoes cardiac surgery, and must be regularly monitored by telemetry equipment.

The pesticide industry has witnessed significant transformation in the past few years, in terms of methods used for crop protection. The surge in demand for food, fueled by the increasing population has resulted in the ever-increasing strain on the agricultural sector. In countries with high population growth, there is a threat to people from food insecurity. Food security is one of the key factors driving the growth of global bactericides market during the forecast period. Bactericide is a chemical that kills and prevents the growth of agricultural bacteria. Change in climatic conditions is one of the key contributors to the increase in lifespan of bacteria, which in turn is expected to generate more demand for bactericides. In addition to bacteria, insects and nutrient levels of soil etc. also affect the growth of crops.  Moreover, growing awareness towards health and food security are also contributing to the growth of bactericides market globally.

TEA esterquats are commonly known as triethanolamine esterquats and the formula of TEA esterquats is C16-18. They are the primary component in European fabric softeners and among the global molecule of choice in various industries across the globe. TEA Esterquats cationic are also used for to partition the ammonium compounds into quaternary. In additional, TEA esterquat surfactants are highly biocompatible and biodegradable as their bonds are easily hydrolyzed. Apart from biodegradability, an additional advantage of TEA esterquats is their suitability with various kinds of fabrics. They also exhibit excellent softening properties and have a simple preparation procedure. TEA esterquat fabric softeners were introduced in the market in the 1980s/1990s and have been the most important fabric softeners for a long time.

Marine penetrators are of great importance in any marine vessel whether it is a cruise ship full of luxury and comfort or any other ship used for transportation or a war ship to protect the water boundaries of a state. Marine penetrators are a necessity and find various applications in a vessel such as signal transmission. Marine penetrators are used in underwater as well as surface water ships/marines for the connectivity of different components. They are water proof, rust proof and flexible. Marine penetrators do not have standard designs and can be customized according to the need of the ship/marine or customer. Marine penetrators pass through several tests, such as high pressure gas, high pressure liquid, current load, HVAC, HVDC and signal quality, to ensure high quality standards.

High durability withstanding variable climatic conditions in interior and exterior areas is the pivotal requirement during the construction of residential and commercial buildings. Another requisite which is sought by the builders is to protect the aesthetics applied on the external surfaces of concrete structures. A number of solutions have been created to make durable concrete as well as safeguarding its aesthetics. To e.g. decorative concrete requires proper curing and sealing. Of the variety of additive chemicals in concrete, the Concrete sealers have been said to offer a high degree of protection and sustaining the integrity of the concrete structure. Concrete Sealers also enhance the color and appeal of floorings. The use of concrete sealers in residential and commercial projects are has increased considerably in present scenario owing to the desirable characteristics offered. The key trait associated with Concrete sealers is that they block the penetration of dirt, oil, grease, chemicals and strains thus making it easier to clean and maintain concrete. Primarily, concrete sealer are classified into two types: penetrating sealers and film forming sealers. Other types of concrete sealers include wax-based sealers, oil-based sealers, acrylic sealers, urethane sealers, silicon sealers and epoxy sealers, among others. Commonly, concrete sealers are used to protect concrete from the damaging effects of water, salt, etc. Also, concrete sealers can enhance the color of the flooring and add an attractive shine to the concrete.

Hydro lubricants are water based lubricants used for lubrication the components of the applicable machinery in the manufacturing sector which aids in increasing the machine service life with their outstanding functional properties. Since these lubricants are water based, they help in saving the energy as the operating temperatures required are low as compared to other synthetic lubricants. The water content in hydro lubricants is very high and thus these lubricants become less harmful. The thermal conductivity of hydro lubricants is also very appreciable. The cooling property of water in the hydro lubricants will help reduce the system temperature up to a certain extent. Hydro lubricants are very useful in increasing the efficiency as well as profits from the system as they have no harmful solvents contained, have improved energy efficiency, reduced emissions of volatile organic impurities along with reduced water pollution and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, allow easy cleaning of system, are fire-resistant and reduce the friction. Hydro lubricants are non-toxic in nature and don't cause any harm when inhaled unlike other lubricants. The hydro lubricants for the gear system available in the market in recent days. These hydro lubricants can be used in food processing industry due their less toxicity and no harmful solvent content. The non-hazardous nature of hydro lubricants allows their handling with an ease.

Die attach is the method used to bond the semiconductor die with the substrate or the package and the materials used in this process are known as die attach materials. Apart from attaching the die to the substrate, die pad or cavity, die attach materials or adhesives also provide electrical conductivity and/or thermal conductivity between the die and the substrate. Use of die attach materials also affects the overall performance of the device while in the field. Hence, it is very important to carefully select die attach materials for a semiconductor product. Properties, such as low temperature sintering, high thermal conductivity and favorable low costs, are affecting the demand for die attach materials around the world.
