Wood Modified by Inorganic Salts: Mechanism and Properties
WOOD MODIFIED BY INORGANIC SALTS: MECHANISM AND PROPERTIES. I. WEATHERING RATE, WATER REPELLENCY, AND IIIMENSIONAL STABILITY OF WOOD MODIFIEID WITH CHROMIUM (111) NITRATE VERSUS CHROMIC ACID' R. S. Willianzs and W. C. Feisl Research Chemists Forest Products Lab~ratory,~Forest Service U.S. Department of Agriculture Madison, WI 53705 (Received October 1983) ABSTRACT Chromic acid treatment of wood improves surface characteristics. A simple dip or brush application of 5% aqueous chromic acid to a wood surface stops extractive staining, improves dimensional stability, retards weathering of unfinished wood, and prolongs the life of finishes. A better understanding of how chromic acid effects these improvements may facilitate the development of even better treatments. The improvements may be due to a combination offactors: oxidation ofwood by hexavalent chromium compounds, formation of coordination coml~lexeswith trivalent chromium, and the presence of insoluble chromium compounds at the surface. Most trivalent chromium compounds do not become fixed in wood (i.e., do not form water-insolublf: wood-chemical complexes). However, chromium (111) nitrate treatment of western redcedar (Thuja plicata), southern pine (Pinus sp.), and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) produced modified wood with properties similar to chromic acid-treated wood. Evaluation of the chromium (111) nitrate- and chromic acid-modified wood by leaching, Xenon arc- accelerated weathering, and swellometer experiments clearly demonstrated similar fixation, erosion, and water-repellent properties. Based on the results from chromium (111) nitrate-treated wood, fixation through coordination of trivalent chromium with wood hydroxyls an(5 formation of insoluble chromium appear to be the critical factors in improving the performance of the treated wood. -

APPROVEO BY MEMBERS OF THE THESIS CO'"o\l TIEE: y . • Ii . ' I : • • • • • New preparative routes to chromyl fluoride were sought. It was found that chlorine ironofluoride reacts with chromium trioxide and chromyl chlo ride to produce chromyl fluoride. Attempts were ~ade to define a mechan ism for the reaction of ClF and Cr0 in light of by-products observed 3 and previous investigations. Carbonyl fluoride and chromium trioxide react to fom chro·yl fluoride and carbo:i dioxide. A mechanism was also proposed for this react10n. Chromium trioxide 11itl\ l~F6 or WF5 reacts to produce chromyl fluoride and the respective oxide tetrafluoride. 2 Sulfur hexafluoride did not react with Cr03. -
Chromium Compounds Hazard Summary
Chromium Compounds Hazard Summary Chromium occurs in the environment primarily in two valence states, trivalent chromium (Cr III) and hexavalent chromium (Cr VI). Exposure may occur from natural or industrial sources of chromium. Chromium III is much less toxic than chromium (VI). The respiratory tract is also the major target organ for chromium (III) toxicity, similar to chromium (VI). Chromium (III) is an essential element in humans. The body can detoxify some amount of chromium (VI) to chromium (III). The respiratory tract is the major target organ for chromium (VI) toxicity, for acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) inhalation exposures. Shortness of breath, coughing, and wheezing were reported from a case of acute exposure to chromium (VI), while perforations and ulcerations of the septum, bronchitis, decreased pulmonary function, pneumonia, and other respiratory effects have been noted from chronic exposure. Human studies have clearly established that inhaled chromium (VI) is a human carcinogen, resulting in an increased risk of lung cancer. Animal studies have shown chromium (VI) to cause lung tumors via inhalation exposure. Please Note: The main sources of information for this fact sheet are EPA's Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) (7), which contains information on inhalation chronic toxicity and the RfC and oral chronic toxicity and the RfD, and the carcinogenic effects of chromium including the unit cancer risk for inhalation exposure, EPA's Toxicological Review of Trivalent Chromium and Toxicological Review of Hexavalent Chromium (3), and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry's (ATSDR's) Toxicological Profile for Chromium. (1) Uses The metal chromium is used mainly for making steel and other alloys. -
Health Hazard Evaluation Report 77-63-449
\ U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HE1\LTH, EDUCATI0f1, AND WELFARE CENTER FOR DISEASE COllTROL I NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR OCCUPATIOfU\L SAFETY AND HEALTH i CINCINNATI, OHIO 45226 HEALTH HAZARD EVALUATIOf~ DETERMINATION l REPORT NO. 77-63-449 McDONNELL AIRCRAFT COMPANY ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI DECEMBER 1977 I. TOXICITY DETERMINATION A health hazard evaluation was conducted by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health on July 11-14, 1977, at the McDonnell Aircraft Company in St. Louis, Missouri. Based on the medical evaluation of employees in Department 151 and the industrial hygiene survey, it is determined that employees were not exposed to toxic concentrations of contaminants during this evaluatton. Potential contaminants studied included: iron oxide, nickel, chromium, sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, nitric oxide, toluene, xylene, benzene, refined petroleum solvents, tetrachloroethylene, acetone, and styrene. It is our opinion that workers in the masking operations may occasionally be exposed to concentrations of organic solvents, and workers involved in the etching operations may occasionally be exposed to concentrations of acids and/or associated emissions such as nitric acid, nitrogen dioxide and nitric oxide which have produced medical symptoms among the employees. These substances are known to produce nose, throat and skin irritation, dizziness and headaches - symptoms which were reported by workers in private interviews during the survey and are important indications of excessive exposure. From this limited evaluation, the authors feel that no definitive statement can be made concerning the workers in Department 151 having an increased incidence of deaths which could be directly attributed to occupational exposure. -

Sd0000029 Evaluation of Chromfte Ore and The
SD0000029 EVALUATION OF CHROMFTE ORE AND THE OPTIMUM METHODS FOR INDUSTRIAL EXTRACTION OF CHROMIUM A TI1HSIS SUBMITTED BY Bakheit Mustafa Mohamed Salih IN CANDIDATURE FOR TIU:DI:GRFJ:OI MASTER OF SC1HNCT DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY FACULTY OF SCIENCE (P.O.BOX 321) OCTOBER 1999 UNIVERSITY OF KHARTOUM 31/ 28 ABSTRACT Samples of chromite ore, collected from Gam and Cheikay mining area (Ingessana Hills) in east Sudan, were analysed to assess the chromium content. Methods for extraction and analysis of chromium metal were developed and established. Analysis were carried out using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) to estimate the contents of chromium, iron, calcium, and magnesium. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was used to evaluate the levels of chromium, iron, and calcium in the ore. Volumetric analysis was performed to assess chromium and iron, whilst gravimetric analysis was employed to measure the amounts of calcium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon present in the ore. The data was chemically and statistically analyzed to compare the results obtained by the given analytical methods. The results are in good agreement except iron oxide, which displayed a significantly different value when measured by x-ray fluorescence. The data obtained exhibited similarity in almost all cases, when compared with local and global researches, reports, and literature. The study has revealed the average contents of Cr2O3, FeO, CaO, MgO, A12O3, and SiO2 as 40.66. 11.96, 11.94. 0.36. 16.94, 11.45% respectively. MnO and NiO were detected in trace amounts, the corresponding levels in the ore being 72 and 27 ppm. The average chromium content in extracted potassium dichromate measured by using AAS, XRF, and volumetric methods was found to be 31.7%. -
