I was quick to smell my thumb, my right thumb (I asked the woman with the special ink if it had to be the left or right one; she said any would work); and a repugnant and strong smell of acetic acid filled my inner flesh tubes which made me let out a quite audible disgust reflex.
I had just voted in my first election for this nation; and after that my family and I went to the mall. Despite how many mentioned was the fact that so many stores would give free stuff after you showed them your inked thumb; I went to none of them, I wasn't really excited for such.
I wasn't excited for voting in the first place. Me like many people have lost all their faith in the whole process, I had planned since the last year that I would straight up cast an invalid/blank vote, and the whole campaign process that came after just reassured me on such choice.
So if I was going to do that, at least I should make something out of it.
And that's how the name of "Boxa Caken Funfetti" written with the black crayon that is given at the voting place, marked the first ever recorded case of a Sparklecare character being voted as a candidate in a presidential election.

As part of this effort, the Molecular Design and Synthesis Group at the University of New South Wales has been designing tagging agents that will temporarily introduce highly fluorinated alkyl groups to molecules to aid in organic synthesis (for example, see figure 18.17).

Vinegar could be secret ingredient in fight against climate crisis
Chemical engineers at Monash University have developed an industrial process to produce acetic acid that uses the excess carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and has a potential to create negative carbon emissions.
Acetic acid is an important chemical used in several industrial processes and is an ingredient in household vinegar, vinyl paints and some glues. Worldwide industrial demand for acetic acid is estimated to be 6.5 million tons per year.
This world-first research, published in Nature Communications, shows that acetic acid can be made from captured CO2 using an economical solid catalyst to replace the liquid rhodium or iridium based catalysts currently used.
Liquid catalysts require additional separation and purification processes. Using a solid catalyst made from a production method that doesn't require further processing also reduces emissions.

Acetic Acid Prices Trend | Pricing | News | Database | Chart
Acetic Acid, a critical chemical used extensively across various industries, has witnessed fluctuating prices over recent years, driven by numerous supply-demand dynamics and market influences. Derived mainly through methanol carbonylation and also through biological fermentation methods, acetic acid's significance lies in its widespread applications in the production of adhesives, textiles, paints, coatings, food additives, and especially in the manufacture of purified terephthalic acid (PTA) used for PET production. Given its industrial importance, any disruption in its availability or raw material cost often creates ripple effects throughout the value chain, making it a key commodity to track for industrial analysts and investors alike.
Globally, acetic acid prices have historically been sensitive to feedstock costs, such as methanol, as well as to energy price volatility. Fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas prices directly affect methanol production costs, thereby influencing acetic acid pricing. The recent trend of renewable energy integration and the quest for more sustainable sources of methanol have, in turn, affected acetic acid markets. Periods of tight supply in the methanol market, resulting from natural disasters, geopolitical instability, or production outages, can lead to sharp price increases for acetic acid. Conversely, a stable feedstock supply can maintain or even drive prices downward when matched with high production efficiency.

Geographically, the acetic acid market demonstrates regional price variations based on production capacity, local demand, and raw material availability. China, for example, holds a dominant position in global acetic acid production and demand. China's influence on prices is profound because it not only consumes a large percentage of the global output but also exports extensively, setting a pricing tone for the global market. Any change in China's manufacturing policies, environmental regulations, or demand trends for downstream products can significantly affect the global price trajectory. In recent years, China's environmental crackdown on high-pollution factories led to plant closures and capacity reductions, tightening the supply and subsequently driving prices up.
Seasonality plays a role in pricing, as demand for acetic acid varies across different sectors. In the textiles industry, demand tends to peak during specific periods of high garment production, leading to a spike in acetic acid requirements for dye manufacturing. Similarly, the production of paints and coatings is affected by construction activity, which often fluctuates with weather patterns, economic cycles, and infrastructure investments. Economic recessions typically lead to reduced demand for durable goods and building projects, suppressing acetic acid consumption and prices, while economic booms stimulate demand across key industries, leading to price increases.
Over the past few years, price volatility has also been influenced by supply chain disruptions and trade policies. The COVID-19 pandemic notably disrupted global logistics and supply routes, causing shortages and delivery delays of chemical commodities, including acetic acid. This led to price spikes in several regions, particularly where local production was insufficient to meet demand. As markets stabilized post-pandemic, prices gradually adjusted; however, the long-term impact on global trade flows continues to reshape market behaviors. Additionally, geopolitical tensions, such as trade wars and sanctions, can alter export-import dynamics, affecting the availability and pricing of acetic acid in global markets.
The sustainability trend sweeping across the chemical industry is reshaping the landscape for acetic acid production. With increasing consumer and regulatory pressure for greener products, companies are exploring bio-based methods of producing acetic acid, focusing on reducing the environmental impact. While these initiatives show promise, they also involve higher initial production costs, which can lead to price increases during the early adoption phases. Over time, as technologies mature and scale economies are realized, more stable and potentially cost-effective solutions may emerge, potentially leveling out prices or offering price reductions.
Demand for derivatives, such as vinyl acetate monomer (VAM), remains a significant driver for acetic acid pricing. As one of the primary end-uses, VAM is used extensively in adhesives, coatings, and films. When demand for VAM surges, acetic acid prices often follow suit due to increased production needs. Conversely, any downturn in industries that heavily use VAM can create a surplus of acetic acid, leading to price softening. Monitoring downstream markets thus becomes critical for anticipating future price movements.
In North America and Europe, regulatory changes related to environmental safety and emissions standards may impact the operational costs of acetic acid plants. Stringent regulations could necessitate upgrades to plant facilities and operational modifications, potentially resulting in higher production costs and, by extension, higher acetic acid prices. Conversely, favorable trade policies or incentives for sustainable practices may provide cost relief and increase global competitiveness, thereby influencing price behavior.
Overall, acetic acid prices are subject to a complex interplay of global supply-demand dynamics, raw material costs, energy market influences, trade policies, sustainability initiatives, and regional market trends. For industry participants, remaining vigilant to these multifaceted factors is key to navigating pricing fluctuations and planning for cost-effective sourcing strategies. As the chemical industry continues to evolve with shifting regulatory landscapes and technological advancements, the market for acetic acid will undoubtedly undergo further transformations, necessitating adaptive strategies and continual market monitoring to optimize purchasing decisions and maintain competitiveness.
