Chapter 1 OVERVIEW This update to the System Documentation for the Toxics Release Inventory-Data Delivery System (TRI-DDS) integrates the system improvements made through the TRI-DDS 2001 (Version 3.1), released to the Department of Defense (DoD) Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) TRI Working Group in April 2002. TRI-DDS 2001 incorporates planned enhancements as well as comments made by the user community throughout calendar year 2001. The system improvements include the following: • More munitions items have been added to the munitions constituent database, including characterization data for practice bombs (bomb dummy units, or BDUs). • The list of TRI analytes has been updated to be consistent with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidance for EPCRA Section 313 reporting for calendar year 2001. Most notably, lead has been reclassified as a persistent bioaccumulative toxic (PBT) chemical with a reporting threshold of 100 lbs. A new TRI chemical, lead (in brass, bronze, or stainless steel), was created with reporting threshold limits of 10,000 lbs for otherwise use and 25,000 lbs for manufacture. • The EPCRA Section 313 article exemption can now be taken into consideration when calculating toxic chemical thresholds and releases. The article exemption allows the quantities of listed toxic chemicals in an article to be removed from threshold determinations and release calculations when that article is processed or otherwise used at a facility. The TRI-DDS considers the expended cartridge casings from the following munitions to be articles: small arms ammunition through 57mm; 64mm, 75mm, and 106mm ammunition; impulse cartridges; photoflash cartridges; signal cartridges; aircraft chaff and flare cartridges; aircraft illumination signals; personal distress signal kits; primer cartridges (electric and percussion); and artillery shells. Grenade rings, pins, and levers (spoons) and the bodies and fins of inert bombs and rockets are also considered articles. Taking the article exemption is the default option in TRI-DDS 2001. You can change your selection by going to the Options command on the File menu and selecting or clearing the Article Exemption check box. • The EPCRA Section 313 de minimis exemption can now be taken into consideration when calculating toxic chemical thresholds and releases. The de minimis exemption allows a toxic chemical (except for PBT chemicals) to be excluded from threshold determinations and release reporting when that chemical is present in a mixture in concentrations less than 1% by weight (or less than 0.1% by weight if it is a carcinogen). Taking the de minimis exemption is the default option in TRI-DDS 2001. You can change your selection by going to the Options command on the File menu and selecting or clearing the De Minimis Exemption check box. • TRI-DDS 2001 can now help with recycle reporting. A new report displays the quantity of potentially recyclable toxic metals in expended training munitions. If a April 2002 TRI-DDS 2001 System Documentation • 1-1 threshold is exceeded for a TRI metal, the recyclable report may be used to verify recycle records or estimate the quantities to be entered into Sections 6, 7, and 8 of the Form R report. • The Generic Comma Separated Value (CSV) File Import feature is a powerful new tool for quickly inputting data into TRI-DDS 2001. Munitions usage data from range scheduling or munitions tracking software that can be output in CSV file format can be quickly imported into TRI-DDS 2001, minimizing the need for manual data entry. Data from Version 3.5b and later of the Range Facility Management Support System (RFMSS) range scheduling software should be importable via the Generic CSV File Import feature. • Another new aid in entering data is the Joint Hazard Classification System (JHCS) Abbreviations button on the Munitions and Components tabs of the Add Event Data dialog box. Click the button to display a table of abbreviations commonly used in munitions nomenclature. You may type these abbreviations in the Nomenclature box, or select the check box to include JHCS abbreviations in nomenclature searches. For example, when the check box is selected, typing “GRENADE” in the Nomenclature box will return a table of all munitions names containing “GREN.” • An Import Areas function has been added to the Modify Area List command on the Facility menu. This feature allows you to import the area names you established in TRI-DDS 2000. • TRI-DDS 2001 allows the user to build a customized item using items and materials found on the Common Name Pick List. If you cannot find a munitions item or a suitable match for it, you can now define the item from the elements of the Common Name Pick List using the custom item feature. The custom item then becomes an element of the Common Name Pick List and can be entered into event records. The custom item may also be a group of munitions, components, fuels, bulk propellants, and/or any other items that are always

All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced without the written permission of the copyright owner. Abstract A novel, low sensitivity, gas-generating composition was developed to replace an existing primary explosive, potassium picrate, for use in a generic squib device. The novel composition was based on energetic materials researched from the open literature. The chosen materials were synthesised or purchased and combined in order to produce formulations which would reproducibly ignite when contacted with a hotwire. The formulations were assessed for their chemical compatibility and homogeneity by small-scale hazard testing, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The compositions were test fired within squibs coupled to a pressure bomb and the pressure generation and rise time was measured using a piezoelectric gauge. Keywords: Squib, Bridgewire, Electroexplosive Device, Igniter i Acknowledgements I was able to pursue this PhD thanks to the support and encouragement provided by my parents, without them I would not have made it this far. A courtesy note is included for my brother and sisters who, although thoroughly uninterested in my research, were present throughout my studies and offered support of a sort.

    Making Plastic Explosives from Bleach by the Jolly Roger Potassium

    Making Plastic Explosives from Bleach by The Jolly Roger Potassium chlorate is an extremely volatile explosive compound, and has been used in the past as the main explosive filler in grenades, land mines, and mortar rounds by such countries as France and Germany. Common household bleach contains a small amount of potassium chlorate, which can be extracted by the procedure that follows. First off, you must obtain: 1.A heat source (hot plate, stove, etc.) 2.A hydrometer, or battery hydrometer 3.A large Pyrex, or enameled steel container (to weigh chemicals) 4.Potassium chloride(sold as a salt substitute at health and nutrition stores) Take one gallon of bleach, place it in the container, and begin heating it. While this solution heats, weigh out 63 grams of potassium chloride and add this to the bleach being heated. Constantly check the solution being heated with the hydrometer, and boil until you get a reading of 1.3. If using a battery hydrometer, boil until you read a FULL charge. Take the solution and allow it to cool in a refrigerator until it is between room temperature and 0øC. Filter out the crystals that have formed and save them. Boil this solution again and cool as before. Filter and save the crystals. Take the crystals that have been saved, and mix them with distilled water in the following proportions: 56 grams per 100 milliliters distilled water. Heat this solution until it boils and allow to cool. Filter the solution and save the crystals that form upon cooling. This process of purification is called "fractional crystallization".

    Chapter 2 THEORETICAL AND LEGAL SUPPORT OF CRIMINALISTIC RESEARCH OF CARTRIDGES (AMMUNITION) TO MANUAL SMALL ARMS 2.1. Cartridges (ammunition) as objects criminalistic research (concept, essence, classification) Currently, one of the unresolved problems of assessing the conclu- sion of forensic ballistic examination is the use in its content of terms and their definitions that do not meet modern scientific ideas about the objects under study. This applies to both legislative acts and normative legal acts regulating the conduct of relevant examinations, in particular the study of cartridges (ammunition) used for shooting from small arms, traces of their use. However, the accuracy and unambiguity of terminol- ogy used in forensic ballistic examination of cartridges (ammunition) are important to ensure its uniform understanding and use in both foren- sic and law enforcement activities. It is no coincidence that the literature emphasizes that one of the main elements of the concept of the General theory of forensic examina- tion is the doctrine of the means and forms of communicative activity in the production of forensic examinations; the Central part of this element is the language of the expert, the system of expert concepts and terms designating them. The development and improvement of the General theory of forensic examination largely depend on the development and improvement of its conceptual apparatus, in-depth disclosure of the es- sence of objects, phenomena reflected in each concept [3, p. 103]. R. S. Belkin notes that the introduction of new terms and their definitions into forensic examination as a specific sphere of scientific knowledge is carried out by expanding the existing basis of theoretical provisions and empirical data [36, p.

    Appendix 1 Unit Table A.1. Conversion Factors Overview The International System of Units (SI) is a modernized version of the metric system established by international agreement. The metric system of measurement was developed during the French Revolution and was first promoted in the U.S. by Thomas Jefferson. Its use was legalized in the U.S. in 1866. In 1902, proposed congressional legislation requiring the U.S. Government to use the metric system exclusively was defeated by a single vote. SI provides a logical and interconnected framework for all measurements in science, industry, and commerce. The metric system is much simpler to use than the existing English system since all its units of measurement are divisible by 10. Conversion Factors The following list provides the conversion relationship between U.S. customary units and SI (International System) units. The proper conversion procedure is to multiply the specified value on the left (primarily U.S. customary values) by the conversion factor exactly as given below and then round to the appropriate number of significant digits desired. For example, to convert 11.4 ft to m: 11.4 Â 0.3048 = 3.47472, which rounds to 3.47 m. Do not round either value before performing the multiplication, as accuracy would be reduced. A complete guide to the SI system and its use can be found in ASTM E 380, Metric Practice.

    Determination of Surfactants from Foam-Formed Products

    Determination of surfactants from foam-formed products Master’s Thesis University of Jyväskylä Department of Chemistry 15.10.2018 Janika Viitala i ABSTRACT In this Master’s thesis, determination of surfactant residues from solid foam-formed samples was studied. The residues of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), and a non- ionic surfactant Tween 20 (polyoxyethylenesorbitan monolaurate), were determined from foam-formed hand sheets. The measured surfactant residues were compared with the theoretical values calculated from the water content of the sample before drying phase and the surfactant dosage. In addition to analysis of surfactant residues, determination of 4- dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid (4-DBSA, anionic surfactant) in water solution by UV spectrophotometry was studied. The literature part considers the chemistry of surfactants and introduces the relatively new concept of papermaking, foam forming. The main focus in the literature part is in the analysis methods of surfactants. Sample pre-treatment methods and the use of spectrophotometry, chromatography and atomic spectroscopy in the determination of surfactants are discussed. In addition, the chemical legislation, toxicological concerns of surfactants and the regulations concerning paper and board in food contact materials are discussed. To determine surfactant residues, two different determination methods were used for both surfactants. SDS residues were determined by spectrophotometry and by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Tween 20 residues were determined by spectrophotometry and by high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with a diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). Ultrasound-assisted nitric acid digestion was used as a sample preparation method for the ICP-OES analysis. Before the chromatographic determination, Tween 20 was extracted from the sample by methanol in Soxhlet extraction.
