Another extremely important military requirement that is not usually associated with civilian requirements is stability in prolonged storage under adverse conditions. For example, the first lots of fly spray that were shipped to North Africa, in 1942, contained pyrethrum as the principal active ingredient. It was not possible to store this material under cover and much of it remained under constant exposure to the intense tropical sun, undoubtedly deteriorating very rapidly. Covered storage facilities are the exception rather than the rule in a combat theater of operations, and all insecticide compounds furnished to the military forces should withstand this type of storage.

Another simple device suitable to be ignited by ordinary matches is the Quickmatcb, which consists of several cotton strands impregnated with BkPdr (See Vol 2 of Encycl, pp B165ff) in starch paste. It has a more-or-less well-defined burning time and thus acts as a delaying element, similar to safety fuse (Ref 57, p 191). Its military requirements are covered in MIL-Q-378B. [Pg.761]

Carbon tetrachloride represents an example of the change to petroleum raw materials in this field. The traditional source of this widely used product has been the chlorination of carbon disulfide, either directly or through the use of sulfur dichloride. Military requirements in World War II caused an increase in demand, and in addition to expansion of the older operations, a new process (28) was introduced in 1943 it involved direct chlorination of methane at 400° to 500° C. and essentially atmospheric pressure. This apparently straight-forward substitution of halogen for hydrogen in the simplest paraffin hydrocarbon was still a difficult technical accomplishment, requiring special reactor construction to avoid explosive conditions. There is also the fact that disposal of by-product hydrochloric acid is necessary here, though this does not enter the carbon disulfide picture. That these problems have been settled successfully is indicated by the report (82) that the chlorination of methane is the predominant process in use in the United States today, and it is estimated that more than 100,000,000 pounds of carbon tetrachloride were so produced last year. [Pg.291]

Another group of chlorinated hydrocarbons comprises those made from paraffin wax. Major applications are in extreme pressure lubricants and as extenders and plasticizers in surface coatings and in vinyl plastics. The chlorinated waxes were also widely applied in flameproofing cotton fabrics, which led to large consumption by the military. It is believed that current military requirements for flame-resistant fabrics will be met by vinyl sheeting of vinyl-coated textile products, so that the World War II demand for the halogenated waxes will not be repeated.
