'For instance, spirits were flammable.

3. Use of solvents and products

We do chemistry in organic solvents.

It is, however, soluble in organic solvents.

The solvents in them do that very efficiently.

Monitoring of solvents, precursors and essential chemicals and assessment

Yes. Then they're flammable. Go on hop off, big boy.

Corexit also contains petroleum solvents and many other toxic compounds.

The debris left by these bombs has very long lasting flammable properties.

Hence, temperature determines the concentration of vapor of the flammable liquid in the air.

The Convention covers toxic and eco toxic, poisonous, explosive, corrosive, flammable, and infectious wastes.

And there was so much oxygen on this planet that the planet was flammable.

The sectoral focus of those activities is in the refrigeration, foams and solvents sectors.

So what we're doing, we're putting compounds with petroleum solvents onto a petroleum spill.

It was a glass bottle filled with flammable liquids, with a simple hand lit fuse.

The highly flammable hydrogen meant that cooking could not be done in the basket itself.

Solvents with a dielectric constant of less than 15 are generally considered to be nonpolar.

And then you get down to the petroleum distillates, which are the solvents, hundreds of them.

Initial reports said that a tanker carrying flammable liquids crashed into a flyover in the Saudi capital.

As the vapor pressure increases, the concentration of vapor of the flammable liquid in the air increases.

328 This entry applies to fuel cell cartridges containing flammable liquids including methanol or methanol water solutions.

It is miscible with virtually all solvents and is a weak base, as is typical for amines.

The sectors covered included refrigeration and air conditioning, mobile air conditioning, aerosols, foams, solvents and fire extinguishing.

But nationalism is, of course, not inevitably violent it flares into conflict only in places with a flammable legacy.

The packaging shall be adequately ventilated to prevent the creation of flammable atmosphere and the build up of pressure.

FLAMMABLE So at times lightning strikes would hit and burn up all the oxygen and burn up the planet.

And what happens first is the solvents break into the oil, the lipid membrane, they let the surfactants in there.

There is some concern that plasticizers and solvents released from many industrial products, especially plastics, may be harmful to human health.

The activities in question are energy conversion (combustion and fugitive emissions of fuels), industrial processes, use of solvents, farming and wastes.

Safety actions are necessarily linked to the type of hazard which exists, e.g., flammable liquids should be stored away from ignition sources.

UNDP follows a sector based approach covering aerosols, refrigeration and air conditioning, mobile air conditioning, foams, solvents and halons used in fire extinguishing.

UNDP follows a sector based approach covering aerosols, refrigeration and air conditioning, mobile air conditioning, foams, solvents and halons used in fire extinguishing.

Cheap and easily available substances, such as solvents (glue and petrol in particular), and drugs such as cannabis are widely used especially by young children.

Product classified as (1) Category 2 flammable liquid, (2) Category 4 acute toxicity by inhalation, and (3) Category 2 specific target organ systemic toxicity, repeated exposure.

Air is the heated drying medium however, if the liquid is a flammable solvent such as ethanol or the product is oxygen sensitive then nitrogen is used.

When this tissue is fixed and stained to be better viewed under a microscope, the lipid is usually dissolved by the solvents used to prepare the sample.

Training of customs officers focuses mainly on refrigerants (foremost CFC) while other ODS such as solvents (CTC, TCA) and methyl bromide are dealt with only in general terms.

TEAP had noted that since the last CTOC report in 2002, no new alternative solvents had been developed and it was unlikely that there would be new solvent alternative breakthroughs.

Prevention and detection of the attempts to transport arms, ammunition, explosive, toxic, flammable, radioactive substances, other items and objects into the aircraft by passengers, members of the crew, and other persons.

After the impact on the target, the RDX will detonate creating a mini explosion, so if there are flammable liquids, gases anything of this nature in the detonation, everything will explode

Finally, in non medical aerosols and solvents, the reduction potentials are noted as being likely to be rather small because most of the remaining uses are critical to performance or safety.

List classes of chemicals or specific substances with which the substance or mixture could react to produce a hazardous situation (e.g. explosion, release of toxic or flammable materials, liberation of excessive heat).

Closed cup testers normally give lower values for the flash point than open cup (typically lower) and are a better approximation to the temperature at which the vapor pressure reaches the lower flammable limit.

They developed the idea of distilling petroleum, or naft, to create a lighter, extremely flammable oil which they mixed with other volatile chemicals to make them burn furiously, and the result was clearly terrifying.

Scientists worry that these changes will lead to ever hotter, drier and more flammable tropics in the coming decades, making things tougher both for the remaining forest and for the people who live there.
