Cardiac POC is a medical test performed to diagnose patients. The cardiac POCs are blood tests including cholesterol and coagulation testing. These include brain natriuretic peptide tests and troponin. Troponin are used to analyse various cardiovascular conditions such as coronary syndromes, heart failures and acute myocardial. The cardiac POCs help in enzyme detection which is released during critical cardiac conditions such as troponin, lactate, dehydrogenase isoenzymes and brain natriuretic peptides. In addition, it also helps in detection of enzymes released during failure of the heart. Cardiac POCs are helpful in diagnosing specific diseases such as myocardial infarction and angina. Cardiac POCs provides accurate information related to the markers which are released during heart failure. These tests help in reducing turnaround time from testing to final results of the patient's diagnosis. Thus, helps in providing effective treatment to the patients.

Linoleum is a type of floor covering which is made from renewable materials such as wood flour, ground cork dust, pine rosin, solidified linseed oil, and mineral fibers such as calcium carbonate. It is an environmental-friendly choice in the modern flooring industry and is used in various commercial, industrial, and residential applications.

Lanthanum is a rare earth chemical element which is classified under the group of seventeen rare earth metals of the periodic table. The metal is found in certain rare earth minerals, generally in combination with cerium and other rare earth elements. Lanthanum is used in extensive range of applications such as catalysts, ignition elements in lighters, medicines, and tig welding electrodes among others.

According to a new market report published by Persistence Market Research "Global Market Study on Graphite: Battery Segment To Witness Highest Growth by 2020", the global graphite market was valued at USD 13.62 billion in 2013 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2014 to 2020, to reach USD 17.56 billion in 2020.

Isophthalic acid is a colorless organic compound which serves as an isomer of terephthalic acid and phthalic acid. Isophthalic acid is implemented as precursors to important polymers such as Nomex which is used as a fire resistant material. The acid is also used for manufacturing resins when mixed with terephthalic acid for drinking bottles. High performance polymers such as polybenzimidazole are also manufactured from isophthalic acid. These acids are usually manufactured by oxidizing metaxylene using oxygen, while employing cobalt manganese catalyst. Chromic acid are generally used as the oxidant which also arises by meta brombenzoate and potassium meta-sulphobenzoate with potassium formate. Isophthalic acid is primarily used as an intermediate for unsaturated polyester resins and polyester coating resins. Other prominent applications of isophthalic acid include its consumption in aramid fibers, high temperature polymers and as a component of copolyester resins. Isophthalic acid serves as a primary raw materials for fiberglass reinforced plastics for developing various products such as corrosion resistant tanks and pipes, automotive, and marine. Isophthallic acid-containing polyesters are also used in industrial coatings, metal office furniture, aluminum siding, automobiles, and household appliances.

Industrial explosives are blasting explosives with significant hazards, which are majorly used in construction, quarrying and mining industries. To enter into the industry, manufacturers require an explosives license to sell as well as sore industrial explosives or in some cases, they are exempted by the Explosives Act and Regulations. Various types of explosives and their accessories are manufactured in the industry such as safety fuse, detonating fuse, detonators, gun powder, nitro compound, ANFO (Ammonium nitrate – Fuel Oil) based explosives, cartridge explosives, bulk explosives and nitrate mixtures. Asia Pacific dominated the global industrial explosives market in terms of production with more than 30 key players involved in industrial explosives industry. Some of them include Indian Oil Corporation, Hubei Kailong Chemical Group Co., and Solar Industries India Limited among others. Europe accounts for the second largest manufacturer for industrial explosives, followed by North America, particularly United States and Canada.

High temperature superconducting fibers are materials which are used for making superconductors at high temperatures. These fibers exhibit the cross cutting potential in various industries such as energy, optics, healthcare, and electromagnetism. The major end user industries of high temperature superconducting fibers include transportation, medical and healthcare, electronics, energy and research and development among others. Although extensive research has been done on superconductivity over the past few decades to make it suitable for increasing number of applications, superconductivity has yet to see collaboration with fiber optics. Usually, high temperature superconducting materials such as yttrium barium copper oxide with a superconducting fiber are preferred for wide range of applications. High temperature superconductor induced magnets are significantly used in fusion reactors producing large magnetic fields. However these magnets usually stop operating when a part of superconducting coil enters the normal (resistive) state. To nullify this, manufacturers are focused towards developing strain and temperature sensors based on fiber optics.

Halide minerals are those minerals which include a dominant halide anion such as fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and Iodine (I). These minerals are complex in nature and have polyatomic anions. Most of the halide minerals occur in deposits of marine evaporite. Some of the commonly used halide minerals include halite (NaCl), sylvite (KCl) and fluorite (CF2). Halite is an important source of sodium chloride, in parallel with NaCl extracted from brine wells or sea water. Sylvite is potassium chloride in its natural mineral form, while fluorite is a vital source of hydrogen fluoride, obtained as a byproduct of the manufacturing of fertilizers. These minerals are used for a wide range of applications such as fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, food ingredients, water softening and other industrial applications.
