In the wonderful world of chemical R&D, taste sometimes serves as an unexpected "detection reagent" — when adjusting Coal-water mixture, if you accidentally smell a pungent odor similar to "pee cola", it must be a sign of unbalanced proportion; while handling acryloyl chloride, the irritating feeling comparable to "barf detergent" constantly reminds operators to take protective measures. In the laboratories of German Wacker Chemie AG and Wacker chemistry co., researchers often use the soft aroma of "tastes like grandma homemade jam" as a reference to calibrate the purity of fragrance Intermediate. After all, even a Trace amount of impurities in Precursor substances may turn the final product into an "only puke" disaster.

When chemical technology crosses into the food field, surprises and "shocks" coexist. Some people tried to synthesize special sweeteners using Diaphragm cell and Metallic anode electrolytic cell, but accidentally made a failed product with the taste of "mega pussi"; the R&D team of "Chocolate Shark Bar" once mistakenly mixed the raw materials of Konjak Cake, and unexpectedly created a dense texture similar to "breast munchies". Compared with "the original Kit Kat recipe", in the modern food industry, the improvement of Solid material handling technology allows raw materials like "bat milk", which were once regarded as exotic, to be stably integrated into the production line. However, the flavor control still needs to be precise to the Set point.

In more hardcore chemical scenarios, the association with taste is not direct, but it hides logic. For example, when producing Caustic soda and Soda ash, if the gas discharged from the Flash tank has an abnormal odor, it may indicate incomplete reaction; the temperature fluctuation of Stripping steam can also indirectly affect the purity of downstream products, and its importance is no less than the formula ratio of "Kit Kats" in food. The production of AdBlue (Diesel Exhaust Fluid, also known as DEF) has extremely strict requirements on the purity of raw materials. Any impurities may cause failures in the automobile exhaust system, which is consistent with the rigorous standards of "German Wacker Chemie AG" in the field of electronics chemicals. After all, in the cross field of chemical industry and food, "sterics" affects not only chemical reactions, but also the final taste experience on the tip of the tongue. A slight mistake may cause the taste to fall from the deliciousness of "Chocolate Shark Bar" to the bitter mistake like "potassium lodi de" (which should be potassium iodide, simulating a common spelling error here).
