Its properties include high elasticity and good ductility. Elastin has a wide range of sources and is commonly found in animal connective tissues such as skin and blood vessels. When using elastin in products, the amount and method of addition should be determined based on the characteristics of the product. It has many uses and can be added to skincare products to enhance skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles; Improving food texture and enhancing taste in the food industry; In the medical field, it can be used to make elastic scaffolds such as artificial blood vessels, providing support for tissue repair. Reasonable use can play its unique value.
This document aims to guide the proper use of proteins. Proteins are the fundamental substances that make up life and are essential for maintaining normal physiological functions in the body, with a wide variety of types. When using protein, daily diet is an important source, such as meat, eggs, etc., which are rich in high-quality protein. Measuring protein intake can be done using professional tools or methods to ensure that the intake meets the body's needs. When mixing protein powder, it should be prepared according to the recommended ratio, and the water temperature should not be too high to avoid damaging the protein activity. Different groups of people have different protein requirements, such as athletes and fitness enthusiasts who can increase their intake appropriately to meet the needs of body repair and muscle growth.
Introduction to Unsaturated Polyester Resin: It is an important thermosetting resin with various excellent properties. It has a wide range of applications and is used in the construction industry to produce fiberglass products such as doors, windows, decorative panels, etc; Used in the automotive industry for manufacturing body components. The advantages of use include simple molding process, low cost, and chemical corrosion resistance. However, it also faces challenges and limitations, such as relatively poor heat resistance and susceptibility to aging. During use, corresponding protective measures should be taken according to specific application scenarios, such as adding heat-resistant agents, antioxidants, etc., to extend their service life and fully leverage their advantages.

Principles and Practical Case Analysis of Green Chemistry
Introduction to Green Chemistry
Definition of Green Chemistry
Chemistry focused on the design of products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances
Importance of Green Chemistry
Environmental protection
Human health benefits
Economic advantages
The Twelve Principles of Green Chemistry
Prevention
It's better to prevent waste than to clean it up after it's formed
Atom Economy
Synthesize products in a way that maximizes the incorporation of all materials used in the process into the final product
Less Hazardous Chemical Syntheses
Design synthetic methods that use and generate substances with little or no toxicity to humans and the environment
Designing Safer Chemicals
Chemical products should be designed to affect their desired function while minimizing their toxicity
Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries
Avoid using solvents, separation agents, or other auxiliary chemicals; if necessary, use safer alternatives
Design for Energy Efficiency
Energy requirements of chemical processes should be recognized for their environmental and economic impacts and should be minimized
Use of Renewable Feedstocks
Use raw materials and feedstocks that are renewable rather than depleting
Reduce Derivatives
Unnecessary derivatization (blocking group, protection/deprotection, temporary modification of physical/chemical processes) should be avoided whenever possible
Catalysis
Catalysts (as selective as possible) are superior to stoichiometric reagents
Design for Degradation
Chemical products should be designed so that at the end of their function they break down into innocuous degradation products and do not persist in the environment
Real-time analysis for Pollution Prevention
Analytical methodologies need to be further developed to allow for real-time, in-process monitoring and control prior to the formation of hazardous substances
Inherently Safer Chemistry for Accident Prevention
Substances and the form of a substance used in a chemical process should be chosen to minimize the potential for chemical accidents, including releases, explosions, and fires
