Ti, B, Ni, Cr, Fe, Co, Mn) has been described, as was the synthesis of nonsiliceous materials such as oxides of W, Fe, Pb, Mo, and Sb [18]. Although these materials do not represent tme zeolites, they are highly interesting materials which are commonly covered in the zeolite literature with great potential for shape-selective catalysis of bulky molecules. 

Solids. Proper handling and disposal techniques can obviate potential problems associated with the soHd waste-retorted shale. Retorted shale disposal and revegetation have posed no adverse environmental impacts at the Unocal Parachute Project (62). EarHer studies carried out using Paraho and Lurgi retorted shales indicated that these materials behave as low grade cements (63,64) and can be engineered and compacted into high density materials (Pig. 11) and water impervious stmctures (Table 15). 

The only components in a coating powder which might cause the waste to be classified as hazardous are certain heavy-metal pigments sometimes used as colorants. Lead- (qv) and cadmium-based pigments (qv) are seldom used, however, and other potentially hazardous elements such as barium, nickel, and chromium are usually in the form of highly insoluble materials that seldom cause of the spent powder to be characterized as a hazardous waste (86). 

Another method that has great potential for the preparation of advanced prepregs and has been explored extensively requites fine powders. The reinforcing fibers are coated with fine particles of the resin and, when heated, the resin flows over the fiber. This method requites finely divided particles either in aqueous solution, in an inert volatile solvent, or as high dielectric material that can be charged and coated by electrostatic attraction to the fiber. Synthetic methods that make fine particles, similar to that described for PEEK (23), are needed. 

Have formal process hazard analyses (PHAs) been completed for highly hazardous processes (for example, those processes involving toxic or volatile substances, highly toxic materials, severe lachrymators, flammables, explosive compounds or potential runaway reactions) If yes, please summarize status of each. 

High potential hazard The health, fire, or explosion risk resulting from the presence of certain materials in excess of a certain limit. 

Another natural polymer that needs a fresh look into its structure and properties is bitumen [123], also called asphaltines, that are used in highway construction. Although a petroleum by-product, it is a naturally existing polymer. It primarily consists of polynuclear aromatic and cyclocaliphatic ring systems and possesses a lamellar-type structure. It is a potential material that requires more study, and high-performance materials such as liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) could be made from it. 

The high potential of the positive electrode, on the other hand, does not allow the use of conducting metals like copper within the positive electrode. Lead can be used instead due to its passive properties caused by a (PbO 2) layer that largely protects the underlying material, but conducts the electronic current and so allows electrochemical reactions at its surface. 

Up to now only qualitative data have been available on potential-dependent MC measurements of electrochemical interfaces. When metals or other highly conducting materials are used, or when liquids are in play, special care has to be taken to allow access of microwave power to the active electrode/electrolyte interface. 

MOFs entered the scientific scene almost 10 years ago. Since then, some have considered them to be another hype in materials science, while others have remained convinced that this is the onset of a new branch of high-potential...
