Household Industrial chemicals

Hope et al. studied the effect of various contaminants (types of household industrial chemicals) on the recycling of HDPE bottles. Detergent, bleach, lubricating oil and white spirit bottles were recycled. They found that the contaminants generally were absorbed into the walls of the container and were not removed by thorough washing. The main contaminants in the recycled pellets were 1-2 wt% of white spirit, 0.7 wt% of hydrocarbon oil, and between 100-500 ppm chlorine from the bleach. Another common contaminant in post-consumer... 

The HDPE prepared with the Cr-based Phillips catalyst is the primary resin used in blow molding to manufacture various types of bottles. The two primary HDPE bottle applications are the milk bottle resin and the household industrial chemical (HIC) resin, with typical resin specifications summarized in Table 6.12. 

Unival HDPE resins have been developed for blow-moulded bottles, drums, and other industrial containers. These resins have excellent rigidity, superior stress crack resistance, high impact and melt strength, and moderate swell. Unival resins are used to produce bottles up to 20 gallons in size used to contain household industrial chemicals, toiletries and cosmetics, health and medicinal aids, food products, and milk, juice, and water.

This is the one example in which metal is not the substrate. Corrosion takes on a new meaning the coating here is required to protect the substrate from direct attack by corrosive substances, from water to more powerful household or industrial chemicals, such as grease, alcohols and bleach. We are concerned with the industrial application of thin protective layers to paper (e.g. labels), card (e.g. playing cards) and many wooden articles, including industrially finished doors, window frames and, particularly, furniture. 

Thermoplastic bottles and other containers are growing fast by replacing glass principally but also metals in the packaging of food, beverage, household and industrial chemicals, oils, drugs, cosmetics, toiletries... 

Poison is a substance which endangers life due to its toxic reaction/poisoning on certain vital functions in the body. The poisonous substances may be the toxins, very high doses of drug, industrial chemicals/gases, household chemical like insecticides-DDT, BHC, etc. 

Sodium hypochlorite is the primary hypochlorite used as a bleach and disinfectant, accounting for 83% of world hypochlorite use, with calcium hypochlorite accounting for the remaining 17%. Approximately 1 million tons of sodium hypochlorite was used globally in 2005, with about half this amount used in households for laundry bleaching and disinfection. The other half was used primarily for wastewater and drinking water treatment other uses include pool sanitation, bleaching of pulp, paper, and textiles, and as an industrial chemical. 

In terms of exposure to carcinogens by the average individual, particular attention should be given (I) to tbc habitat (water and air contamination use of household chemical products). (2) the workplace (industrial chemicals), and, of course, 3 f the general environment, particularly in industrialized urban areas. 

Odor masking does little or nothing to control malodors it merely covers them up. Many materials used in masking odors are aldehydes, which are very chemically reactive and usually comprise the top note of a fragrance. Odor masking is used in many areas of household, industrial, and institutional use via products that mask such malodors as pel smells, smoke, cooking, and numerous other odors. The forms by which masking is executed vary, and can be solid, liquid, and aerosol. 

Up to the 70-ies gas consumption was dominated mainly by industry (heavy industry, chemical industry, electricity, etc.), but the demand for household gas supply increased permanently. This process significantly has changed the structure of gas consumption, because the earlier consumption was without peak periods and was mainly independent from seasons, whereas current demand is of strongly fluctuating nature having peak consumption periods depending on yearly seasons. 

INHALANTS Legal household, industrial, medical, and office products that are volatile (vaporize or evaporate easily), producing chemical vapors. Abusers inhale concentrated amounts of these vapors, by various means, to alter their consciousness. 

Another double displacement reaction results in the formation of gaseous ammonia, NH3. Ammonia, a pungent-smelling gas, is an important industrial chemical. It is used as a fertilizer and, when dissolved in water, as a household cleaner. Ammonium hydroxide is formed in the reaction below... 

The Soap and Detergent Association (SDA) is a nonprofit trade association representing manufacturers of household, industrial, and institutional cleaning products, their ingredients and finished packaging oleochemical producers and chemical distributors to the cleaning product industry. SDA members produce more than 90 percent of the cleaning products marketed in the U.S. 

Bomatic, Inc. has been a producer of plastic bottles and containers since 1969. The company serves the personal care, automotive, pharmaceutical, medical, lawn and garden, food, household cleaners, and industrial chemicals markets. Production capabilities include extrusion blow moulding and injection moulding products made from HDPE, PVC, LDPE, PET, PETG, polycarbonate, polystyrene, polypropylene, and polyurethane. 

Community education programs should be developed to inform residents about superwarfarin rodenticides and other household commercial chemicals with the potential to be used as chemical warfare or terror agents. Fact sheets may be one method of informing the pubhc. Identifying those at risk and when they should be informed may be a useful part of this education campaign - this may also improve security in industrial plants, and limit any access from outsiders in all industrial and storage facilities where flammable or highly toxic chemicals are stored, particularly livestock facilities. 

Inhalants are the only abused substance classified solely by their means of administration—abusers take them by breathing in vapors from volatile substances. Thus, researchers must try to characterize a wide variety of substances and chemicals found in hundreds of common household, industrial, commercial, and medical products that can be inhaled to produce a psychoactive effect."... 

Xenobiotic organic compounds (XOCs) originating from household or industrial chemicals and present in relatively low concentrations in the leachate (usually less than ImgL of individual compounds). These compounds include, among others, a variety of aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, and pesticides. 

At times, people react acutely or chronically to unknown stimulants. In such cases, it is hypothesized that unidentified mixtures are often the causative agents. Such toxic mixtures can arise from mixtures of two or more household products as well as from the mixture of household chemicals with chemicals from foods, outdoor air pollutants, water pollutants, or industrial chemicals that are carried into the home on the clothing of workers. In many of these mixture exposure instances, the health effects cannot be attributed to any of the individual chemicals present, but produce distinct clinically defined symptoms. 

The sources of lipophilic/hydrophilic chemical exposure include environmental pollution (air, water, and soil contamination), pesticide, herbicide, and fertilizer residues in foods and drinking water, excipients (non-active additives such as colors, flavors, rheological agents, etc,) in foods and pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, household chemical products, personal care products, cosmetics, and environmentally synthesized chemicals that are formed from reactions with released chemicals with each other and with naturally present species.
