Dipropylene Glycol Ethyl Ether (DPGEE) [Ethyl DIPROXITOL] Product Stewardship Summary December 2017
DiPropylene Glycol Ethyl Ether (DPGEE) [Ethyl DIPROXITOL] Product Stewardship Summary December 2017 DiPropylene Glycol Ethyl Ether (DPGEE) [Ethyl DIPROXITOL] Product Stewardship Summary (CAS number 30025-38-8) Chemical Formula for DPGEE C8H18 O3 What is DPGEE? DPGEE is a glycol ether based on Propylene oxide and ethanol. It is a speciality solvent having a bi- functional nature (ether-alcohol). It is a clear liquid with an ethereal odour. The Shell Chemicals range of Propylene oxide-based glycol ethers are sold under the trade name PROXITOL. How is DPGEE Used? It is used as an intermediate and in formulations in industrial, professional or consumer applications, mainly in surface coatings and printing inks and paints, cleaners, agrochemical or de-icing/anti-icing formulations. Health, Safety and Environmental Considerations DPGEE is flammable liquids with a flashpoint of 180 0F/82 0C. DPGEE is an isomer mix, of which the main component is 1-Ethoxypropanol-2 (typically 98% or more). Shell PROXITOLs are not classified as carcinogens or mutagens, are not expected to cause cancer in humans, nor do they impair fertility or damage the developing foetus. DPGEE is of low toxicity towards aquatic organisms. They are completely miscible with water, biodegradable and not expected to bio-accumulate. Storing and Transporting DPGEE DPGEE is transported by tank truck, rail car and vessel, primarily in bulk quantities, but also as packed product. Due to its flammability, they are classified as hazardous for transport under transport regulations. Glycol Ethers should be stored at ambient temperatures away from sources of ignition and substances with oxidising or corrosive properties. -
Hot Surface Ignition Temperature of Dust Layers with and Without Combustible Additives
HOT SURFACE IGNITION TEMPERATURE OF DUST LAYERS WITH AND WITHOUT COMBUSTIBLE ADDITIVES by Haejun Park A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Fire Protection Engineering May 2006 APPROVED: Professor Robert G. Zalosh, Advisor Joseph A. Senecal, Kiddie-Fenwal, Inc., Co-advisor Professor Kathy A. Notarianni, Head of Department Abstract An accumulated combustible dust layer on some hot process equipment such as dryers or hot bearings can be ignited and result in fires when the hot surface temperature is sufficiently high. The ASTM E 2021 test procedure is often used to determine the Hot Surface Minimum Ignition Temperature for a half inch deep layer of a particular dust material. This test procedure was used in this thesis to study possible effects of combustible liquid (such as lubricating oil) and powder additives in the dust layer as well as air flow effects. The following combustible dusts were used: paper dust from a printing press, Arabic gum powder, Pittsburgh seam coal, and brass powder. To develop an improved understanding of the heat transfer, and oxygen mass transfer phenomena occurring in the dust layer, additional instrumentation such as a second thermocouple in the dust layer, an oxygen analyzer and gas sampling line, and an air velocity probe were used in at least some tests. Hot Surface Minimum Ignition temperatures were 220oC for Pittsburgh seam coal, 360oC for paper dust, 270℃ for Arabic gum powder, and > 400oC for brass powder. The addition of 5-10 weight percent stearic acid powder resulted in significantly lower ignition temperature of brass powder. -
Effect of Enzymes on Strawberry Volatiles During Storage, at Different Ripeness
Effect of Enzymes on Strawberry Volatiles During Storage, at Different Ripeness Level, in Different Cultivars and During Eating Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gulsah Ozcan Graduate Program in Food Science and Technology The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Sheryl Ann Barringer, Adviser W. James Harper John Litchfield 1 Copyright by Gülşah Özcan 2010 ii ABSTRACT Strawberry samples with enzyme activity and without enzyme activity (stannous chloride added) were measured for real time formation of lipoxygenase (LOX) derived aroma compounds after 5 min pureeing using selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS). The concentration of (Z)-3-hexenal and (E)-2-hexenal increased immediately after blending and gradually decreased over time while hexanal concentration increased for at least 5 min in ground strawberries. The formation of hexanal was slower than the formation of (Z)-3-hexenal and (E)-2-hexenal in the headspace of pureed strawberries. The concentration of LOX aldehydes and esters significantly increased during refrigerated storage. Damaging strawberries increased the concentration of LOX aldehydes but did not significantly affect the concentration of esters. The concentrations of many of the esters were strongly correlated to their corresponded acids and/or aldehydes. The concentration of LOX generated aldehydes decreased during ripening, while fruity esters increased. Different varieties had different aroma profiles and esters were the greatest percentage of the volatiles. The aroma release of some of the LOX derived aldehydes in the mouthspace in whole strawberries compared to chopped strawberries showed that these volatiles are formed in the mouth during chewing. -

Fire Hazard Analysis Techniques Chapter Contents Performing a Fire Morgan J
SECTION 3 Chapter 7 Fire Hazard Analysis Techniques Chapter Contents Performing a Fire Morgan J. Hurley Richard W. Bukowski Hazard Analysis Developing Fire Scenarios and Design Fire Scenarios vailable methods to estimate the potential impact of fire can be divided into two categories: Quantification of Design risk-based and hazard-based. Both types of methods estimate the potential consequences of Fire Scenarios A Prediction of Hazards possible events. Risk-based methods also analyze the likelihood of scenarios occurring, whereas hazard-based methods do not. Fire risk analysis is described more fully in Section 3, Chapter 8, “Fire Risk Analysis.” Section 3, Chapter 9, “Closed Form Enclosure Fire Calculations,” provides Key Terms simple fire growth calculation methods. bounding condition, design The goal of a fire hazards analysis (FHA) is to determine the expected outcome of a specific fire curve, design fire set of conditions called a fire scenario. The scenario includes details of the room dimensions, con- scenario, fire hazard tents, and materials of construction; arrangement of rooms in the building; sources of combustion analysis, fire model, fire air; position of doors; numbers, locations, and characteristics of occupants; and any other details scenario, performance- that have an effect on the outcome of interest. This outcome determination can be made by expert based design, t-squared fire judgment, by probabilistic methods using data from past incidents, or by deterministic means such as fire models. “Fire models” include empirical correlations, computer programs, full-scale and reduced-scale models, and other physical models. The trend today is to use models whenever pos- sible, supplemented if necessary by expert judgment. -
