Smoke and/or vapors do not absorb radiation as significantly in the IR spectrum as in the UV spectrum. This makes devices of this type particularly useful when heavy smoke concentrations may accompany a fire. However, care must be taken that thick IR absorbing dusts are not part of the hazard. [Pg.191]

Because of the variations in the quality of crude oils, the flash point of any crude oil it must be tested, however because most crude oils contain a quantity of light vapors they are considered in a low flash point classification. In atmospheric burning heavy smoke production normally occurs. [Pg.34]

Cigarette smoking Cigarette smoking increases the risk of cardiovascular side effects from hormonal contraceptive use. This risk increases with age and with heavy smoking (15 or more cigarettes/day) and is quite marked in women more than 35 years of age.

Smokeless Propellant. Term used to distinguish the relatively smokeless single-base, double-base and triple-base propellants from BkPdr which produces heavy smoke (Ref 40a, p 133) (See also CANNON PROPELLANTS in Ref 44, p C29-R)... [Pg.752]

HDPE can present health hazards when it burns. Heavy smoke, fumes, or potentially toxic decomposition products can result from incomplete combustion. Large-scale fire testing has shown that the products formed from HDPE present no greater hazard than those from cellulostc materials, wood, fell, or rubber. [Pg.1143]

The chief evil of a polluted atmosphere is not the aesthetic horror of the smoke canopy, the grimy buildings and the stunted vegetation. It is not even the inspiration of dirty air—even though in the course of twenty-four hours of a heavy smoke fog, the dweller in London breathes in 300,000,000,000 particles of suspended matter. The real crime is the cutting aft. of sunlight. [Pg.2]
