Flammability

Introduction. Fabric softeners have been with us when it comes to taking care of fabrics, especially natural fabrics such as cotton and wool. Apart from the well-known fabric softener’s function of softening laundry during the final rinse they have also acquired new applications such as fighting oduors. This therefore calls for fabric softener manufacturers to come up with innovative and attractive scents to further this cause. With many fabric softeners having flooded the market today, it is…

on obtaining enough of each gas, he planned to burn them together, dangerously, inside of the Hab. When Watney began creating water inside of the Hab everything was working smoothly, although he ran the risk of exploding due to the nature of the flammability of the hydrogen, “One minute I was happily burning hydrogen; the next I was on the other side of the Hab, and a lot of stuff knocked over.” (Weir 43). Despite…

“Chemical engineering is a branch of engineering that applies physical sciences (e.g. chemistry and physics) and life sciences (e.g. biology, microbiology and biochemistry) together with mathematics and economics to produce, transform, transport, and properly use chemicals, materials and energy (Cohen, 1996).” The field of chemical engineering is very diverse, covering areas from biotechnology to mineral processing. It would take too long to list all the products that are impacted by chemical…

Corrosion is a chemical property. Propane is non-corrosive. Flammability, a substance’s ability to burn is also a chemical property. Propane is extremely flammable. Heat of combustion is the, “...amount of energy released when a substance is burned with oxygen” (yourdictionary.com 1). Propane’s heat of combustion is…

System Safety in the Dreamliner: Containing Battery Fires Designing a long-haul, twin-engine airliner that impressed both operator and passenger was the goal of Boeing when they launched the 7E7 program in 2003. Sweptback wings, higher-humidity in cabins, composite fuselage, ultra-high thrust engines and a simulated sky interior were just a few improvements since air transportation of an earlier generation (“Boeing 787 Dreamliner long-range,” n.d.). The aircraft plagued by launch delays,…

chemicals for proper disposal. For treatment and disposal facilities to handle unknown materials they must collect a list of different information to help identify it. Information like physical description, water reactivity, water solubility, pH, flammability, radioactivity, toxins, etc.2 The objective was to identify and synthesis the unknown compound. This lab consisted of identifying the compound by testing…

Guidelines for Handling Injuries/Illnesses Medical Emergencies When an employee is sick or injured to the extent that emergency assistance is obviously required, follow the steps listed below. 1) Notify the plant dispensary at extension #11255. 2) Notify the Safety Engineer at extension #11227. 3) Call security by radio or by dialing “0” on the phone and inform them that an ambulance is needed.

Emulsion Independent Research Project A combined effort of Timothy Chase Willard and Marcus Bortey of Mr. Cork’s Second Period chemistry class December sixteenth of 2014  Background Information An emulsion is a mixture of two or more chemicals in liquid form with no mutual solubility. Emulsions are part of two-systems of matter called colloids. Colloids are particles that cannot be seen without the use of a microscope, but are larger than the size of the individual molecules involved in the…
