  • Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List
    School Emergency Response Plan and Management Guide Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List PROHIBITED AND RESTRICTED CHEMICAL LIST Introduction After incidents of laboratory chemical contamination at several schools, DCPS, The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and DC Fire and Emergency Management Services developed an aggressive program for chemical control to eliminate student and staff exposure to potential hazardous chemicals. Based upon this program, all principals are required to conduct a complete yearly inventory of all chemicals located at each school building to identify for the removal and disposal of any prohibited/banned chemicals. Prohibited chemicals are those that pose an inherent, immediate, and potentially life- threatening risk, injury, or impairment due to toxicity or other chemical properties to students, staff, or other occupants of the school. These chemicals are prohibited from use and/or storage at the school, and the school is prohibited from purchasing or accepting donations of such chemicals. Restricted chemicals are chemicals that are restricted by use and/or quantities. If restricted chemicals are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan. Also, plan maps must clearly denote the storage locations of these chemicals. Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are a subclass in the Restricted chemicals list that are limited to instructor demonstration. Students may not participate in handling or preparation of restricted chemicals as part of a demonstration. If Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan. Section 7: Appendices – October 2009 37 School Emergency Response Plan and Management Guide Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List Following is a table of chemicals that are Prohibited—banned, Restricted—academic curriculum use, and Restricted—demonstration use only.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, Frederick B. Dent. Secretary NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS. Richard W. Roberts. Director Preface The production of chemical compounds and their transportation constitutes a vital segment of our nation's technological growth and economic stability. Hazardous materials require appropriate labeling and identification in connection with their handling and transport in commerce and industry. The Hazardous Classification System proposed by the Department of Transportation, Hazardous Materials Regulations Board, describes various classifications for materials, however, thermally unstable or self-reactive materials are indicated only as a secondary descriptor. The possibility of identifying thermal instability of chemical substances without recourse to experimental studies is the basic purpose of this study. Our approach has been to evaluate certain procedures which claim to be capable of estimating hazard potential by a direct comparison with the results of explosive sensitivity tests and the predictions from the hazard evaluation schemes.

NAVLE, Arun K. SIKDER** High Energy Materials Research Laboratory, DRDO, Sutarwadi, Pune, 411 021, India E-mails: *[email protected], **[email protected] Abstract: An advanced, solvent-less resin based Combustible Cartridge Case (CCC), designed to resolve the inherent problems of shrinkage and limited mechanical strength associated with the gelatinisation of nitrocellulose, has already been developed. The felt-moulded components contain thermoplastic polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) resin as the binder and the enhanced mechanical strength is achieved by carrying out hot compaction of dry felts at an elevated temperature (105 ± 2 °C). Presently, resin based technology is adopted for tank gun ammunition and also for the developed modular CCCs, i.e. the Modular Combustible Case (MCC) for different types of artillery gun ammunition. However, during exhaustive trials conducted with the resin based CCCs in 120 mm tank gun ammunition at three temperatures, i.e. -10, 27 and 55 °C, severe geometrical deformation was noticed when the rounds were conditioned at 55 °C for 24 h., adversely affecting the loading of rounds into the gun chamber. This was attributed to the combined effects of softening of the resin at that temperature and the load of the projectile/ shell (14.4 kg) experienced by the CCC region during conditioning of the round in the horizontal mode.

  • Decomposition and Reaction of Polyvinyl Nitrate Under Shock and Thermal Loading: a Reaxff Reactive Molecular Dynamics Study Md Mahbubul Islam and Alejandro Strachan*
    Article pubs.acs.org/JPCC Decomposition and Reaction of Polyvinyl Nitrate under Shock and Thermal Loading: A ReaxFF Reactive Molecular Dynamics Study Md Mahbubul Islam and Alejandro Strachan* School of Materials Engineering and Birck Nanotechnology Center, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: We use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with the reactive force field ReaxFF to investigate the response of polyvinyl nitrate (PVN), a high-energy polymer, to shock loading using the Hugoniostat technique. We compare predictions from three widely used ReaxFF versions, and in all cases, we observe shock-induced, volume- increasing exothermic reactions following a short induction time for strong enough insults. The three models predict NO2 dissociation to be the first chemical, and relatively similar final product populations; however, we find significant differences in intermediate populations indicating different reaction mechanisms due to discrepancies in the relative stability of various intermediate fragments. A time-resolved spectral analysis of the reactive MD trajectories enables the first direct comparison of shock-induced chemistry between atomistic simulations and experiments; specifically, ultrafast spectroscopy on laser shocked samples. The results from one of the ReaxFF versions are in excellent agreement with the experiments both in terms of threshold shock strength required for the disappearance of NO2 peaks and in the time scale associated with the process. Such direct comparison between physical observables is an important step toward a definite determination of detailed chemistry for high-energy density materials. I. INTRODUCTION interactions with molecular monolayers.11 The experiment on 12 Shock-induced chemistry of high-energy (HE) materials and PVN revealed that 18 GPa shocks resulted in chemical the shock to detonation transition involve complex and inter- reactions within approximately 150 ps indicated by the disappearance of a peak associated with NO2.

  • Chapter 4 Explosive Properties of Polyvinyl
    CHAPTER 4 EXPLOSIVE PROPERTIES OF POLYVINYL NITRATE AND EFFECT OF ADDITIVES THEREON INTRODUCTION Several compounds containing C-NO_ groups (the nitro compxjunds), N-NOp groups (the nitramines), and 0-N0_ groups (the nitrates or nitric esters) are knovm to exhibit explosive properties, i.e. they decompose rapidly producing heat and gaseous products under the influence of suitable mechanical and/or thermal stimuli. Polyvinyl nitrate (PVN), being a nitrated polymer, is expected to exhibit explosive properties depending on its degree of nitration (expressed in terms of % N by weight). The propensity of PVN tovreu'ds explosive decomposition is attributable to the presence of the relatively weaJc N-0 bond (bond energy 53 kcal/mol) in large number throughout the chain. It vras, therefore, considered desirable, in this study, to investigate a few selected explosive properties of PVN which would have a bearing on its practical application, viz. the deflagration (or autoignition) temperature, sensitiveness to impact loads, heats of combustion and explosion, and thermal stability. (Detonation characteristics, like detonation velocity, critical diameter, power, etc, were not included in the study due to lack of experimental facilities). It is intended to investigate the influence of certain variables on the explosive properties of PVN, as, for example, the type (fibrous or gelatinized) as well as nitrogen content of PVN vis-a-vis its deflagration temperature; the type, nitrogen content and sensitizer additive in PVN vis-a-vis its impact sensitiveness; the type, stabilizer additive and its concentration in PVN vis-a-vis its heat stability. Thermochemical properties of PVN were determined, najnely, heats of combustion and explosion by calorlmetrlc experiments, and heat of formation by calculation, In order to obtain an Idea of Its energetic potential.

Nitration (ester-iii In the development of fuels for rocket motors, it is en cation) is preferably carried out at 0° C. The polyvinyl nitrate deavored to produce fuel compositions which are as energy formed is thereby completely or partly soluble in the nitrating rich as possible, in order thereby to be ableto deliver large acid depending upon the selected excess thereof.
