There are currently 9 names in this directory beginning with the letter I.
Industrial gases:
Gases used in industrial and manufacturing processes such as steel production, semiconductor manufacture, or oil drilling.

Inhibitor
A compound that slows the rate of a chemical reaction.

Injection molding
Injection molding is a process by which we take raw plastic material in the form of small pellets (also referred to as resin), heat it gently to the point where it will flow under moderate pressure, and inject it (push it with a plunger) into a mold.

Inorganic chemistry
Noncarbon-based chemistry.

Input traits
Alteration of plant genetics to create a stronger or more resistant plant, thereby increasing overall crop yield.

Insecticides
Chemicals used to control pests or infestations.

Ion
An atom or group of atoms that has gained or lost one or more electrons, causing it to become negatively or positively charged. Oppositely charged ions attract to form ionic bonds. The ionic method is used to form polymers from monomers during a process called condensation polymerization, which produces water as a byproduct.

Isomer
A compound having the same molecular weight but differing in physical or chemical properties. Isobutane is an isomer of butane.

Isotopes
Different forms of the same element. The different forms behave identically in a chemical manner but have different mass.
