Xylenes are petrochemicals produced by catalytic reforming and coal carbonization in the manufacture of coke fuel. They are used in various industries and medical technology as a solvent. It occurs naturally in coal, wood tar and coal among others. Xylenes are mainly produced as a part of the BTX aromatics. They are derived from various sources within a refinery including pyrolysis gasoline, toluene disproportionation and reformate among others. Reformate accounts for over three fourths of mixed xylenes market. There are three types of xylenes, viz., ortho-xylene, meta xylene and para xylene.

Conductive polymers are organic polymers having high electrical conductivity. These can have metallic conductivity or semiconductors. The electrical properties can be customized using method of organic synthesis. The major advantage it offers is process ability through dispersions. These coatings are made up some basic polymers those could be polyaniline, polypyrrole and polyacetylene. The applications of conductive polymer coatings include sensors, optical & electronic materials, actuators, bio-sensors, super-capacitors, bio-implants and corrosion protection for electrical energy storage.

Pearlescent pigments are fluorescent or phosphorescent-based pigments, also known as shine pigments. The basic difference between a pigment and dye is that a pigment is insoluble in water and most solvents, while dyes are soluble in liquids. Pigment coated surfaces are more resistant than dye coated surfaces. Pearlescent pigments exhibit pearl like shine when applied on surfaces and coated with metallic oxide or mica. These pigments have a transparent appearance and higher refractive coefficient. Inherent properties of these pigments include high resistance to acid, temperature and ultraviolet radiations. Unique properties of these materials make them suitable for use across a wide array of applications. Addition of pearlescent pigment in any colour produces different visual effects or metallic shade finish, which makes them highly preferable in the coatings industry.

Variable frequency drives are extensively used devices meant for controlling electrical energy utilization at optimum cost. These are also called variable speed drives, adjustable speed or frequency drives, AC drives, and inverters. Previously, valves and slats were used to control the flow of fluids in electric motor drives which were energy intensive. Variable frequency drives help to establish an efficient mode of controlling the electrical load. Variable frequency drives (VFD) are the most effective and efficient motor controllers in the industry today. Modern VFDs are affordable, provide smooth motor acceleration, are reliable, reduce power supply problems in the facility, and have flexibility of control. Further, the use of VFD brings the total system cost down because of the elimination of various system components which are required for valve control. Variable frequency drives are also used when three phase motors are needed to be operated from single phase power so that there is minimum wastage of power.

Wind energy is the power extracted from wind using wind turbines. A wind turbine is a device that transforms the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy. Wind energy is a renewable form of energy that is available in ample quantity and extensively. It is an alternative to fossil fuels which are depleting in quantity. Wind energy is the cleanest resource; it has neither toxic gas emissions nor greenhouse gas emissions. Wind turbines are connected to the network of electricity transmission. The onshore and offshore wind that is trapped is an inexpensive, competitive and significant source of energy. Wind energy contributed to 4% of the total global electricity usage in 2013.

A keyless vehicle access control system is a fully automated system comprising of an electronic locking feature which secures access to the vehicle electronically and substitutes the conventional mechanical key. This system works on a number of low frequency transmitting antennae placed outside as well as inside the vehicle.

Acrylic paints are quick drying paints containing pigment in a acrylic polymer emulsion. These paints are water-soluble but when dry they become water resistant. The completed acrylic painting can bear resemblance to a watercolor or an oil painting, depending on how quantity of pain that has been diluted in water or if the paint is modified with acrylic gels, media or pastes. Acrylic paints have their own unique and beautiful characteristics, which cannot be attained with any other media. The removal of acrylic paints from a surface once dry is very difficult but the use of a solvent may result in the removal of all the paint layers. The demand for acrylic paints is much higher than oil paints in the market due to the versatility offered by acrylic paints.
