• • 18927-0, substituted oil;

 

• • 18928-1, mixed metal oxides;

 

• • 18936-0, fatty acids, tall-oil, reaction products with ethyleneamine, substituted heteromonocyclic and alkenol;

 

• • 18951-6, fatty acids, alkyl esters with polyglycerol;

 

• • 18952-7, 1,3’-bipyridinium, 5’-[2-(3-aminophenyl)diazenyl]-1’-[3-(dimethylamino)alkyl]-1’,2’-dihydro-6’-hydroxy-4’-methyl-2’-oxo-, chloride, hydrochloride (1:1:1), diazotized, coupled with diazotized 5’-[2-(4-aminophenyl)diazenyl]-1’-[3-(dimethylamino)alkyl]-1’,2’-dihydro-6’-hydroxy-4’-methyl-2’-oxo-1,3’-bipyridinium chloride hydrochloride (1:1:1) and resorcinol;

 

• • 18959-5, sorbitan, tri-alkyl ester;
