Danger produced

The same phenomenum probably drives mountaineers into attempting feats which they know quite well may lead to their death. The thrill of danger produces hormones and neurotransmitters which in turn produce a high . Perhaps this too is why war has such a fascination for mankind. 

Technological damage may be invisible natural damage usually is visible. Invisible danger produces greater terror or horror (Baum 1986 Reko 1984).

When a product has been proved dangerous producers must be able to locate the product and withdraw it from the market or, if necessary, organize its destruction.

A special apparatus (Fig. Ill, 40,1) renders the preparation of iodides from alcohols a very simple operation. The special features of the apparatus are —(i) a wide bored (3-4 mm.) stopcock A which considerably reduces the danger of crystallisation in the bore of the tap of the iodine from the hot alcoholic solution (ii) a reservoir B for the solid iodine and possessing a capacity sufficiently large to hold all the alkyl iodide produced (iii) a wide tube C which permits the alcohol vapour fix)m the flask D to pass rapidly into the reservoir B, thus ensuring that the iodine is dissolved by alcohol which is almost at the boiling point. An improved apparatus is shown in Fig. Ill, 40, 2, a and b here a... 

THPOH—Ammonia—Tris Finish. By far the most effective finish for polyester—cotton textiles was a system based on the THPOH—NH treatment of the cotton component either foUowed or preceded by the appUcation of Tris finish to the polyester component. This combined treatment appeared to be effective on almost any polyester—cotton blend. A large amount of fabric treated in this way was sold throughout the United States and much of the rest of the world. Shortly after the introduction of Tris finishing, Tris was found to be a carcinogen. Most of the Tris treated production was in children s sleepwear, and this created a situation in which almost aU chemical fire-retardant-treated textiles were unfairly condemned as dangerous. Manufacturers mshed to replace chemically treated textiles with products produced from inherently flame-resistant fibers. Nowhere was the impact more severe than in the children s sleepwear market. New, safer materials have been introduced to replace Tris. Thus far none has been as completely effective. 

The purification of Hquid nitro alcohols by distillation should be avoided because violent decompositions and detonation have occurred when distillation was attempted. However, if the distillation of a nitro alcohol cannot be avoided, the utmost caution should be exercised. Reduced pressure should be utilised, ie, ca 0.1 kPa (<1 mm Hg). The temperature of the Hquid should not exceed 100°C hot water should be used as the heating bath. A suitable explosion-proof shield should be placed in front of the apparatus. At any rise in pressure, the distillation should be stopped immediately. The only commercially produced Hquid nitro alcohol, 2-nitro-1-butanol, is not distilled because of the danger of decomposition. Instead, it is isolated as a residue after the low boiling impurities have been removed by vacuum treatment at a relatively low temperature. 

In the European Union, coal-derived complex chemical substances, ie, those contained in the European Inventory of Existing Commercial Chemical Substances, have been classified for carcinogenicity in the twenty-first adaptation to technical progress of the European Commission (EC) Dangerous Substances Directive 1994 67/548/EEC (57). The EC Regulation 793/93 requires data sets to be submitted by producers or importers to the...
