Second, in the early 1950s, Hogan and Bank at Phillips Petroleum Company, discovered (3,4) that ethylene could be catalyticaHy polymerized into a sohd plastic under more moderate conditions at a pressure of 3—4 MPa (435—580 psi) and temperature of 70—100°C, with a catalyst containing chromium oxide supported on siUca (Phillips catalysts). PE resins prepared with these catalysts are linear, highly crystalline polymers of a much higher density of 0.960—0.970 g/cnr (as opposed to 0.920—0.930 g/cnf for LDPE). These resins, or HDPE, are currentiy produced on a large scale, (see Olefin polymers, HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE). 

Sweden 0.5 chrysotile only 1 f/cnf for SMF (during a full working day)... 

The present state technology makes it possible to detect explosives with a concentration of 10 -lO g/cnf in 30 s (with a gas chromatography) and l-t-3 s (with a drift spectrometry and its modification, mass-spectrometry). 

Fast concentration and sample injection are considered with the use of a theory of vibrational relaxation. A possibility to reduce a detection limit for trinitrotoluene to 10 g/cnf in less than 1 min is shown. Such a detection limit can by obtained using selective ionization combined with ion drift spectrometry. The time of detection in this case is 1- 3 s. A detection technique based on fluorescent reinforcing polymers, when the target molecules strongly quench fluorescence, holds much promise for developing fast detectors.
