    ACXRI '96 Quality Control of Clinker Products By SEM and XRF Analysis Ziad Abu Kaddourah and Khairun Azizi MY9700786 School of Materials and Mineral Resources Eng., Universiti Sains Malaysia 31750 Tronoh, Perak, Malaysia. ABSTRACT The microstructure and chemical properties of industrial Portland cement clinkers have been examined by SEM and XRF methods to establish the nature of the clinkers and how variations in the clinker characteristics can be used to control the clinker quality. The clinker nodules were found to show differences in the chemical composition and microstructure between the inner and outer parts of the clinker nodules. Microstructure studies of industrial Portland cement clinker have shown that the outer part of the nodules are enriched in silicate more than the inner part. There is better crystallization and larger alite crystal 9ize in the outer part than in the inner part. The alite crystal size varied between 16.2-46.12um. The clinker chemical composition was found to affect the residual >45um, where a higher belite content causes an increase in the residual >45um in the cement product and will cause a decrease in the concrete strength of the cement product. The aluminate and ferrite crystals and the microcracks within the alite crystal are clear in some clinker only. The quality of the raw material preparation, burning and cooling stages can be controlled using the microstructure of the clinker product. INTRODUCTION Examination of manufactured industrial clinkers using the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is usually conducted to study problems that can't be defined by the normal quality control procedures. Such a study can be used to give better information and knowledge about clinkers characteristics and how variations in the clinker characteristics are affected by variations in the various stages during the manufacturing process.

  • TIN Toxicity with Analytical Aspects and Its Management
    Review Article International Journal of Forensic Science Volume 2 Number 2, July - December 2019 TIN Toxicity with Analytical Aspects and its Management Ashok Kumar Jaiswal1, Kiran Bisht2, Zahid Ali Ch3, Arijit Dey4, Deepak Kumar Sharma5 How to cite this article: Ashok Kumar Jaiswal, Kiran Bisht, Zahid Ali Ch et al. TIN Toxicity with Analytical Aspects and its Management. International Journal of Forensic Science. 2019;2(2):78-83. Abstract Tin is a silvery-white metal, naturally occurring as cassiterite. It is denoted by symbol Sn, has an atomic number 50 and atomic weight 118.71u. The two commonly found oxidation states of tin are Sn (IV) called stannic and Sn (II) called stannous with approximately equal stabilities. Tin has been extensively used for storing food and beverages, transportation, construction industries, in paints, as heat stabilizers, and biocides. Several anthropogenic and natural processes release tin and its compounds into the environment posing a severe toxicological threat to living beings. Several studies prove absorption and accumulation of tin in the various parts of the body such as lungs, kidney, and spleen resulting in impairment of respiratory system, degenerative changes in kidney, central nervous system and reproductive system. The clinical features of tin poisoning along with appropriate diagnosis has been discussed in this paper. The identification of tin and its compounds using various advanced analytical techniques will help in better dealing with the toxic effects of the same. Also, the hospitalization and post-hospitalization management will help to understand the proper care and treatment required by the patient. Keywords: Tin toxicity; Poisoning; Tin; Biocides; Analytical techniques etc.

  • Some Investigations on the Toxicology of Tin, with Special Reference to the Metallic Contamination of Canned Foods
    VOLUME IX NOVEMBER, 1909 No. 3 SOME INVESTIGATIONS ON THE TOXICOLOGY OF TIN, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE METALLIC CONTAMINATION OF CANNED FOODS. By S. B. SCHRYVER. IN July 1906 attention was drawn to the fact that a large number of tinned foods returned from the South African campaign were exposed for sale on the home markets. The majority of these foods were known to have been from five to seven years in tins, and the possession of this material afforded a rare opportunity for investigating the question of metallic contamination, and for determining how far such contamination was deleterious to the public health. The following account of investigations into the subject is based on a report to the Local Government Board by Dr G. S. Buchanan and myself (Medical Department: Food Reports, No. 7, 1908) extracts from that report being reproduced with the permission of the Controller of H. M. Stationery Office. Previous researches dealing with this subject have been published by Ungar and Bodlander (1887), working in Binz's laboratory, and by Lehmann (1902). The former investigators shewed that by repeated sub- cutaneous injections into animals of small quantities of tin in the form of a non-irritant organic salt (the double tartrate of tin and sodium) over prolonged periods, definite toxic symptoms could be produced, which resulted, after sufficiently long treatment with the metallic salt, in the death of the animal. The general effects of the poison were manifested (a) in disturbances in the alimentary tract, (b) in the general nutrition, and above all (c) in the central nervous system.

Prior to actually listing a site, EPA proposes the site in the Federal Register and solicits public comments. This document provides responses to public comments received on one site proposed on January 19, 1999 (64 FR 2950), one site proposed on April 23, 1999 (64 FR 19968), one site proposed on July 22, 1999 (64 FR 39886), and two sites proposed on February 4, 2000 (65 FR 5468). All of the sites are added to the NPL based on an evaluation under the HRS. These sites are being added to the NPL in a final rule published in the Federal Register in July 2000. ii CONTENTS Executive Summary ............................................................ v Introduction ................................................................... vii Background of the NPL ....................................................... vii Development of the NPL ......................................................viii Hazard Ranking System........................................................ix Other

  • Serum Anion Gap: Its Uses and Limitations in Clinical Medicine
    In-Depth Review Serum Anion Gap: Its Uses and Limitations in Clinical Medicine Jeffrey A. Kraut* and Nicolaos E. Madias† *Medical and Research Services VHAGLA Healthcare System, UCLA Membrane Biology Laboratory, and Division of Nephrology VHAGLA Healthcare System and David Geffen School of Medicine, Los Angeles, California; and †Department of Medicine, Division of Nephrology, Caritas St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center, and Department of Medicine, Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, Massachusetts The serum anion gap, calculated from the electrolytes measured in the chemical laboratory, is defined as the sum of serum chloride and bicarbonate concentrations subtracted from the serum sodium concentration. This entity is used in the detection and analysis of acid-base disorders, assessment of quality control in the chemical laboratory, and detection of such disorders as multiple myeloma, bromide intoxication, and lithium intoxication. The normal value can vary widely, reflecting both differences in the methods that are used to measure its constituents and substantial interindividual variability. Low values most commonly indicate laboratory error or hypoalbuminemia but can denote the presence of a paraproteinemia or intoxi- cation with lithium, bromide, or iodide. Elevated values most commonly indicate metabolic acidosis but can reflect laboratory error, metabolic alkalosis, hyperphosphatemia, or paraproteinemia. Metabolic acidosis can be divided into high anion and normal anion gap varieties, which can be present alone or concurrently. A presumed 1:1 stoichiometry between change in the ؊ ⌬ ⌬ serum anion gap ( AG) and change in the serum bicarbonate concentration ( HCO3 ) has been used to uncover the concurrence of mixed metabolic acid-base disorders in patients with high anion gap acidosis.
