Moissanite is a rare mineral exhibiting various crystalline polymorphs, also known by the term silicon carbide (SiC). These materials are synthesized in laboratories and termed as silicon carbide. It is a colorless gemstone, similar to the crystal structure of diamonds, and whose original deposits are found in meteorites. The mineral is widely used in various pieces of luxury jewelry, having a higher refractive index than diamonds, while possessing a colorless and aesthetic property, equal to diamonds. Due to this, light bounces inside the stone more than diamonds which creates an aesthetic display of fire and sparkle with hardness greater than other conventional gemstones. In addition, due to its durability, moissanite is preferred as the perfect and most affordable choice jewelry investments. When polished and cut, moissanite is used for making jewelry and other ornaments, as well as for decoration purposes. Certain rocks or organic materials that are not considered as minerals are also consumed in making jewelry products and are hence considered to moissanite as well. While most of the gemstones are hard in nature, certain soft minerals are used in making jewelry owing to their luster and other properties exhibiting aesthetic value.

Methyl salicylate, also known as wintergreen oil is an organic ester methanol and salicylic acid which is naturally developed by various species of plants, specifically wintergreens. It is used in food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and liniments among others. It is used in an extensive range of applications such as providing fragrance to certain products, flavoring agents in chewing gums and mints, antiseptic material in household products such as Listerine, and medical applications for treating joint and muscular pain.

Methacrylicacid (MAA) is a colorless, viscous organic compound having an unpleasant odor. It is a carboxylic acid which is water soluble and mixable with organic solvents. MAA is industrially manufactured on a large scale as a precursor to its esters, specifically polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and methyl methacrylate(MMA). MAA is used in an extensive range of applications, most notably in the production of polymers with trade names such as Plexiglas and Lucite. MAA is manufactured in different conditions. In one route, tert-butanol or isobutylene is oxidized to methacrolein to givemethacrylic acid. For this purpose, methacrolein can be obtained from ethylene and formaldehyde. Isobutyric acid can also be dehydrogenated to methacrylic acid. In second route, acetone cyanohydrin is converted to methactylamide sulfate using sulfuric acid, which then hydrolyzed to MAA.
