The non-halogenated flame retardants market is on a strong growth trajectory, driven by rising fire safety regulations, ...

Researchers at Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS) have now filled a gap in the click-chemistry toolbox, creating a selection of nine halogenated azidopyridines that could become useful building blocks for ...

Halogenated flame retardants, such as polybrominated diphenyl ethers, are known to pose a health risk to children. Previous studies have found that exposure to these chemicals can cause lower IQ ...

Humans are not the only ones who produce halogenated organic pollutants Date: July 1, 2016 Source: Universitaet Tübingen Summary: Organohalogens like perchloroethene and trichloroethene are ...

REACH also restricts a few specific halogenated flame retardants including penta-BDE and octa-BDE. In addition, there are so far three that are Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC): HBCDD, SCCP, and ...

As is the case with many industries, thermal and catalytic oxidizers are widely applied air-pollution control devices used throughout the pharmaceutical industry for the destruction of hydrocarbons.

Volatile halogenated organic chemicals are found in indoor and outdoor air, often at concentrations substantially above those in remote, unpopulated areas. The outdoor ambient concentrations vary ...

We have shown previously that hydroxyl radicals $ ( {\rm HO}^ {\cdot})$ can be produced by H₂O₂ and halogenated quinones, independent of transition metal ions; however, the underlying molecular ...

Inhaled anesthetic agents include nitrous oxide (the oldest of all anesthetics) and various halogenated agents: desflurane (halogenated solely with fluorine halogenation increases potency and is ...

For example, the ratios of MAC-awake to MAC-immobility for nitrous oxide and diethyl ether are significantly higher than those for some halogenated volatile anesthetics. 12,15 And, because ...
