  • Comparative Durability and Abrasion Resistance of Natural and Synthetic
    Comparative Durability and Abrasion Resistance of Natural and Synthetic Latex Gloves Ryan Michel2 and Katrina Cornish1,2 Department of Horticulture and Crop Science, 2Department of Food, Agricultural and Biological Engineering, Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, The Ohio State University, Wooster, OH 44691 Abstract Medical gloves assist with the prevention of the spread of germs and are required to be worn when working with blood, body tissues, mucous membrane, and broken skin. They should provide good protection between hands and bio hazardous fluids to prevent contamination and promote safety of all healthcare workers and patients. Hence, it is critical for medical gloves to meet a standard performance criterion. Under ASTM D 3577 and D 3578, medical gloves have requirements they must meet in order to be sold and distributed as new gloves. However, there are no industry standards for gloves to meet while in use. The goal of this project was to develop a standard test for glove durability after their initial use. For the tests, gloves were worn by a mechanized prosthetic hand that was put under different conditions which are normally experienced by professionals in the medical field. This design was developed and later confirmed by Dr. Katrina Cornish: Design: Effects of media outside the glove Phosphate buffered saline (PBS), 70% ethanol, air Gloves Tested: Chloroprene, Latex 2, Nitrile, Polyvinyl Chloride and Latex 1 To evaluate glove durability during use, the gloves were immersed in different media before being subjected to contact with an abrasive surface. From this design, ranking of commercially available gloves are developed based on the time until failure of the gloves in these tests.

    OECD SIDS 3,4-DICHLOROBUT-1-ENE FOREWORD INTRODUCTION 3,4-DICHLOROBUT-1-ENE CAS N°: 760-23-6 UNEP PUBLICATIONS OECD SIDS 3,4-DICHLOROBUT-1-ENE SIDS INITIAL ASSESSMENT PROFILE CAS No. 760-23-6 Chemical Name 3,4-Dichlorobut-1-ene Structural Formula CH2=CH-CHCl-CH2Cl RECOMMENDATIONS The chemical is a candidate for further work. SUMMARY CONCLUSIONS OF THE SIAR Human Health Oral LD50 and inhalation LC50 of 3,4-dichlorobut-1-ene (3,4-DCB) are about 940 mg/kg and 2100 ppm, respectively. Inhalation repeated dose study in rats conducted for 14 days, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week at doses of 104 mg/m3 (20 ppm) and 1037 mg/m3 (200 ppm) of 3,4-DCB. Relative liver weight increased and change in liver cell morphology was observed at 1037 mg/m3 dose. This chemical is slightly irritating to skin and eyes. Acute skin irritation in rabbits according to OECD TG 404 causes erythema but does not cause systemic intolerance reaction. Acute eye irritation study by instillation into the conjunctival sac of rabbits according to OECD TG 405 causes corneal opacity and conjunctival redness but does not cause systemic intolerance reaction. In an oral study in rats by OECD combined repeated dose and reproductive/developmental toxicity screening test [OECD TG 422] at doses of 0, 0.4, 2, 10 and 50 mg/kg/day for at least 44 days, organ weight and histopathological changes were induced. In males, absolute kidney weights were slightly increased with 10 mg/kg and absolute and relative weights of the liver and kidneys were increased with 50 mg/kg.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1983 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. ELMER KEISER BOLTON June 23, 1886-Jidy 30, 1968 BY ROBERT M. JOYCE LMER KEISER BOLTON was one of the outstanding leaders E of industrial research. He became an industrial re- search director at a time when research was only beginning to be a significant factor in the chemical industry. There were no models for this new role, and Bolton's concepts of direct- ing industrial research were in large measure those that he formulated himself, reflecting his vision and drive to achieve important commercial goals. The record of industrial products developed by Du Pont research organizations that he directed is impressive; it in- cludes synthetic dyes and intermediates, flotation chemicals, rubber chemicals, neoprene synthetic rubber, nylon synthetic fiber, and Teflon® polytetrafluoroethylene resin. His leader- ship in bringing these developments to fruition was always apparent to management and to those he directed, but be- cause of his characteristic self-effacement his name is not widely associated with these accomplishments. Throughout his career he supported and encouraged his technical person- nel. Most important, he had the knack of picking the right time and direction to take in moving a research lead into development. Many of his decisions proved crucial to the ultimate success of these ventures.

  • A THESIS Entitled the PYROLYSIS of ACETYLENE and RELATED
    A THESIS entitled THE PYROLYSIS OF ACETYLENE AND RELATED COMPOUNDS submitted by IAN AUSTIN READ for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London 1. ABSTRACT This thesis describes some work on the thermal decomposition of acetylene and vinylacetylene. The Introduction surveys the earlier work on the pyrolysis of these and related compounds and describes also some of the important properties of carbons formed in both pyrolytic systems and flames. Special attention is paid to the ways in which the properties of pyrolytic carbons depend on the conditions under which carbon formation occurs, and the various mechanisms by which carbon may be formed are discussed. The Experimental Section describes both the static system used for the study of the pyrolysis of acetylene and vinylacetylene, and also the gas chromatographic, electron diffraction and radio- assay techniques employed for the analysis of the reaction products. In the Results Section data are presented on the reactions of pure vinylacetylene and of vinylacetylene/acetylene mixtures. At sub-atmospheric pressures, and temperatures below about 500°C, the pyrolysis of vinylacetylene follows second-order kinetics and results mainly in the formation of polymers, the overall activation energy of the reaction being 28 kcal. moles. At higher temperatures, however, the pyrolysis is complex and results in the formation of large amounts of acetylenes ethylene, hydrogen, methane and soot. Only traces of diacetylene and methylacetylene can be detected among the products. 14 Studies of the pyrolysis of mixtures of vinylacetylene with C- acetylene show that vinylacetylene is not an intermediate in the 2. formation of surface carbon from acetylene.

  • Jointly Catalytic Synthesis of Vinyl Chloride and Chloroprene from Acetylene
    International Journal of Control and Automation Vol. 13, No. 4, (2020), pp. 55 - 62 UDC 547.314.25.057 Jointly Catalytic Synthesis of Vinyl Chloride and Chloroprene from Acetylene 1A.R. Karjavov., 2N.I. Fayzullayev., 2N.X. Musulmonov 1Samarkand Medical Institute, Uzbekistan 2Samarkand State University, Uzbekistan E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. As a result of studying the influence of the mass transfer coefficient (transportation) on the process productivity and the influence of other factors, the technological parameters of the catalytic flocculant of vinyl chloride and the chloroprene extraction reactor of acetylene were calculated and the main indicators of the compatibility of technological capabilities of environmental and economic factors were substantiated. The process of co-production of vinyl chloride and chloroprene by hydrochlorination of acetylene in the liquid phase was also studied. Process parameters are found that provide vinyl chloride and chloroprene with high selectivity and acetylene conversion. Some kinetic laws of acetylene hydrochlorination were also studied. As a result of the studies, a technological scheme of the combined receipt of vinyl chloride and chloroprene was created, and the material balance of the process was calculated. Key words: vinyl chloride, selectivity, acetylene, chloroprene, material balance, Polyvinyl chloride, vinylacetylene, vinylacetylene, divinylacetylene 1. Introduction Vinyl chloride and chloroprene are a valuable monomer for the production of polyvinyl chloride - artificial rubber and others. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is one of the most versatile thermoplastics with a wider range of applications than all other plastics. Not surprisingly, it is used everywhere and has a positive attitude towards it. Indeed, PVC is a universal, stable, hygienic, safe and cost-effective material that has significant advantages over other materials.
