In Dallas, CaCl2 is used for dust control purposes. The absolute levels of chloride and sulfates are similar to those found in Boston. However, environmental factors such as precipitation and humidity are different and therefore Dallas is less aggressive. In addition, Dallas analyses do not appear to account for all ionic species. 

In the case of more susceptible workers or when the environmental factors cannot be corrected, other measures must be used to prevent and treat dry skin and avoid progression to eczema and increased penetration of harmful xenobiotics. In individuals with predominantly wet work, who contact with surfactants and foods, frequent application of petrolatum or a lipid-rich emollient protects them from developing dry skin, e.g., in experimental conditions previous application of a lipid-rich emollient reduced the SLS-induced TEWL increase (Halkier-Sorensen 1996a Loden 1997). Nevertheless, these conclusions cannot be extended to all occupational settings and to every commercial emollient available different aggressions in the working place need different protective measures, which are not yet well standardized or adjusted for every particular case. In addition, for each protective cream studied, whose complete constitution is seldom known, a small difference in the ingredients... 

Thermal cycling and hmnidity are usually the most aggressive environmental factors for a cyanoacrylate and the end user should conduct appropriate trials to ensure the adhesive meets all requirements. 

The integrity of pipelines is very important to companies, government agencies, consumers, and other stakeholders, due to the potential adverse consequences related to public health, safety, the environment and financial expenditure on correcting whatever type of system failure may occur. However, a pipeline is subject to deterioration due to age, aggressive environmental factors, inadequate design and improper maintenance and protection. In this context it is observed that some accidents have occurred over the years, which have often generated critical consequences. 

Rubber samples, specially prepared without the required antioxidant protection show in a brief time the high aggressiveness of the environmental factors in different regions of Havana City. Table 3. Components of rubber from national formulation number 471 without antioxidant protection ... 

Corrosion inhibitor research requires accelerated testing of candidate inhibitors such as REM compounds, before field trial of the most successful candidates. A challenging issue is that an inappropriately designed accelerated inhibitor test could introduce major uncertainties to its results. Acceleration of a corrosion test is usually achieved through the enhancement of the aggressiveness of the test environment in order to intensify major corrosion controlling factors. The identification of major environmental factors that may control the thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanism of a corrosion process is, therefore, the first step in inhibitor test design. 

Resistance to Chemical Environments and Solubility. As a rule, amorphous plastics are susceptible, to various degrees, to cracking by certain chemical environments when the plastic material is placed under stress. The phenomenon is referred to as environmental stress cracking (ESC) and the resistance of the polymer to failure by this mode is known as environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR). The tendency of a polymer to undergo ESC depends on several factors, the most important of which are appHed stress, temperature, and the concentration of the aggressive species.
