Malt liquor is a strong lager or ale in which sugar, corn or other adjuncts are added to the malted barley to boost the total amount of fermentable sugars in the wort, and thus boost the final alcohol concentration without creating a heavier or sweeter taste.
Magnesium silicate is a chemical compound consisting of magnesium, silicon, and oxygen. It exists in several forms, both natural and manufactured. One of the most common forms of this compound is the mineral talc, which can be found in deposits around the world and is used in many industrial and everyday applications.
Sodium silicate, commonly known as âwaterglassâ, is prominent due to wide commercial and industrial application. It is often composed of an oxygen-silicon polymer backbone housing water in molecular matrix pores. Sodium silicate products are manufactured as solids or thick liquids, depending on intended use. For instance, waterglass functions as a sealant in metal components. Lastly, although sodium silicate production is a mature industry, there is ongoing research for new applications given its heat conductive properties.
