Effect of Organic Iron and Boron Compounds

Frichon sensihvity is evaluated using a BAM frichon apparatus according to the Japanese safety test standard JIS K 4810. The frichon energy imparted to the mixtures is determined as the product of the applied mass and the moving distance of 

When the catalysts are in the form of crystalline solid particles, the characteristics of Efc are different compared to when liquid organoiron catalysts are used. As shown in Fig. 11.18, the critical friction energy is independent of the mass fraction of the catalysts SrCOj and FcjOj. Though Fe203 reduces the Ef similarly to the
