Sourness is not associated with water, but bitterness, for example, can be caused by magnesium chloride and calcium chloride.
Among those: eliminating polyvinyl chloride and brominated flame retardants from all its products by 2009, and removing mercury and arsenic from its products' displays.
Nu-Tek Salt has come up with a way to replace salt, or sodium chloride, in food with a proprietary crystal fashioned from potassium chloride and an organic acid. (see photo.) It tastes like salt, behaves like salt in recipes, and has the same texture and feel.

So, Moseley says some companies are at least poking around with more out-there technologies, like zinc-air, sodium nickel chloride, and other exotic chemistries.
Antidumping duties on magnesium, polyvinyl chloride, and hot-rolled steel, for example, may please upstream, petitioning domestic producers, who can subsequently raise their prices and reap greater profits.
Antidumping duties on magnesium, polyvinyl chloride, and hot-rolled steel, for example, enable petitioning U.S. companies that often dominate domestic supply of raw materials to foreclose alternative sources and then thrust higher prices on their U.S. customers.

For example, Apple led the industry in removing harmful toxins such as brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
ENGADGET: Bob Mansfield: 'all eligible Apple products are back on EPEAT'
The oxygen was removed and the bacteria and gold chloride were added.

It specializes in polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride.
The solution (pun intended) involved tacking sodium dithionite and hydro-chloride onto the antibiotic, making it into a water-soluble salt. (Drugs prepared as hydrochlorides are commonplace.) To keep the chemicals from oxidizing, Adams tested 50 different agents, such as citric acid and ascorbic acid, and played with various ratios until he got the right pH balance.
On the tape, Kevorkian injects muscle relaxant into Youk's arm to stop his breathing, and then injects potassium chloride to stop his heart.
Greenpeace wants to see companies eliminate the use of hazardous substances such as polyvinyl chloride, brominated flame retardants, antimony, beryllium, and phthalates.
The third drug, and the final one, is called potassium chloride.
It improved sweat chloride, too, although again, the effects were modest and variable.

The principal product is polyvinyl chloride resin, which is supplied to downstream subsidiaries to manufacture and market end-user industrial and consumer products.
The remainder will end up in salt ponds where various compounds -- sodium chloride, gypsum, calcium carbonate -- can be extracted and potentially commercialized.
Chemically, potash is potassium chloride (KCl) which is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine.

She customizes her dolls, removing their hair and "rerooting" them with mohair or Saran (polyvinylidene chloride), the filament used for Barbie dolls.
It had developed only eight reagent beads--enough for glucose and liver function, for example, but not enough to measure chloride or potassium.
Chloride, considered a secondary contaminant, could affect drinking water's taste, smell and color.
Yet troubles loom: The housing downturn has cut demand for chemical-rich building products like polyvinyl chloride pipe, private equity firms are no longer buying chemical companies at rich multiples, and Mideast oil-exporting nations are investing billions in their own new chemical plants.
He and Adam Brown, associate professor of electronic art and intermedia at Michigan State, found that the bacteria, Cupriavidus metallidurans, can withstand concentrations of gold chloride 25 times higher than previously reported by scientists.
