What is the Difference between Flammable and Combustible Liquids? Put simply‚ flammable and combustible liquids are liquids that can burn. The real difference lies within their flash point range‚ or lowest temperature at which vapours of the material will ignite when supplied with an ignition source. Flammable and combustible liquids are utilised in most workplaces‚ from manufacturing to retail and service entities. To ensure the safety of property‚ people‚ and the environment‚ both flammable

Structural Effects on Stability and Reactivity. Organic Chemstry Laboratory Structural Effects on Stability and Reactivity Introduction The concepts of stability and reactivity are fundamental to understanding chemistry. In this chapter we consider first the thermodynamic definition of chemical stability. We then consider chemical kinetics (Section 3.2) and how it can provide information about reactivity. We also explore how structure influences stability and reactivity. We want to learn how

Abstract This experiment is about the synthesis of 3-nitrobenzaldehyde through nitration. The nitration of benzaldehyde is an example of an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction‚ in which a proton of an aromatic ring is replaced by a nitro group. Many aromatic substitution reactions are known to occur when an aromatic substrate is allowed to react with a suitable electrophilic reagent‚ and many other groups besides nitro may be introduced into the ring. Although the reaction produced a low

Polymer Chemistry Classification of Polymers – Notes prepared by The most common way of classifying polymers is to separate them into three groups - thermoplastics‚ thermosets‚ and elastomers5. The thermoplastics can be divided into two types - those that are crystalline and those that are amorphous. You may click on the words in the diagram below to learn more about these classifications. Thermoplastics Molecules in a thermoplastic are held together by relatively weak intermolecular

Telomerase-deficient Mice Jaskelioff et al.‚ Nature‚ January 2011 This study looked at the effects of telomerase activation on the tissues of prematurely-aged adult mice. The telomerase enzyme‚ TERT-ER‚ is not expressed in the cells of these mice. The group induced (turned on) expression of TERT-ER by exposing mice to the compound 4-OHT‚ 4-hydroxytamoxifen (see definitions on next page). This treatment rebuilt the telomeres in the mice that had been damaged with age‚ as well as regenerated

used extensively for rapid curing of butyl stocks requiring heat resistance. Butyl of this type is used to fabricate high voltage wire and cable products‚ moulded electric components‚ and heat resistant seals and hose. PQD has also been used as part of the curative system for liquid butyl elastomers. These compounds are formulated as coatings‚ sealants and electrical encapsulants. The proper choice of PQD and a co-curative‚ such as lead dioxide or tertiary-butyl perbenzoate‚ will effect room temperature
