Towel

For more serious cuts, where bleeding is profuse, apply pressure with a thick sterile (or at least clean) pad, dressing, or towel over the area. If an arteiy is spurting, try to minimise bleeding by applying pressure immediately above and below the cut. 

Dry Ice should be handled with gloves or with a dry towel if Dry Ice is held for a long time in the hand, it may cause frost bite. 

Sometimes the reaction stops suddenly it is then necessary to add a further 10 ml. of 20 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution and warm to the boiling point this causes the reaction to continue. Occasionally, the reduction becomes very vigorous a wet towel and a bath of ice water should be kept close at hand. 

Method 1. Place 11 5 g, of clean metallic sodium (compare Section III,7, Note 1), cut into small pieces, into a dry 1 litre round-bottomed fiask fitted with a 25 cm. double surface reflux condenser. Introduce 250 ml. of absolute, but preferably super dry (see Section 11,47, 5) ethyl alcohol all at once. A vigorous reaction ensues if the condenser tends to become flooded with alcohol, cool the flask either by surrounding it with a wet towel or by directing the waste water from the condenser upon... 

Place 10 g. of clean sodium (cut into small pieces) in a 500 ml. round bottomed flask fitted with a double surface reflux condenser. Introduce 100 g. (127 ml.) of absolute ethyl alcohol and allow the reaction to proceed as vigorously as possible if the alcohol tends to flood the condenser, cool the flask momentarily with a wet towel or by a stream of cold water. When all the sodium has reacted, add 40 g. of pure phenol. Distil ofif the... 

In a 500 ml. conical flask place 50 ml. of glachtl acetic acid, 25 ml. of 40 per cent, formaldehyde solution (formalin) and 20 g. of phenol. Wrap a cloth or towel loosely around the neck and opening of the flask. Pass dry hydrogen chloride gas (Section 11,48,1) into the mixture. Within 5 minutes, a large mass of pink plastic is formed the reaction is sometimes very vigorous. The yield is 36 g. It is frequently necessary to break the flask in order to remove the product completely for this reason a beaker, or metal flask or beaker, is preferable. 

This procedure is used to separate crystallized product from solvent or to remove crap and solids from a liquid. Figure 8 shows the proper apparatus to use. The collecting flask is called a side arm flask and to that extended nipple (tee heel) is attached a vacuum source. The thing that is shoved through the rubber stopper is called a Buchner funnel and is usually made of white porcelain or, preferably, PP. The Buchner funnel, when viewed from above, can be seen to have lots of pin holes in the bottom surface of its reservoir. Over this surface is layered a single sheet of rounded filter paper or paper towel. 

After 12-24 hours of reflux the reaction is, for the most part, complete. The reaction mix will be a dark brown. So what does one do about all those brown particles and junk. Well, usually there aren t any. The solution should be uniformly dark. If any solids can be seen it means that they are insoluble in ethanol and can be removed from solution by gravity or vacuum filtration through a coffee filter or some paper towels. If it takes a day to drip through the filter then so-be-it. The ethanol with its payload of isosafrole will... 

As binders for fiherfill and nonwovens, the emulsions are applied to a loose web or mat, then heated to form a film that sticks the loose fibers together. Polyester (188—191), glass (192), and rayon (193) mats are bonded in this manner for a variety of end uses including quilting, clothing, disposable diapers and towels, filters, and roofing (see Nonwoven fabrics). 

Nonwoven wipe categories include products for babies and adults, the food service and electronics industries, medical and clean room appHcations, industrial cleaning, computer diskettes, and household products such as dusters, tea towels, shoe cleaning cloths, towelettes, and hand towels. Nonwoven fabrics are used to filter air, water, petroleum (qv), food, and beverages. Nonwovens loaded with abrasives, cleansers, or finishes can be found in a variety of products used by many industries and in many homes to scour or poHsh. Also, a majority of garments designed to protect industrial workers and consumers from hazardous environments are made from nonwoven fabrics. 

Paper is made in a wide variety of types and grades to serve many functions. Writing and printing papers constitute ca 30% of the total production. The balance, except for tissue and toweling, is used primarily for packaging (qv). Paperboard differs from paper in that it generally is thicker, heavier, and less dexible than conventional paper. 

Spray appHcations to the surface of the sheet have been useful, especially for appHcation of creping aids and release agents in towel and tissue miUs. The spray appHcation of functional chemicals has not been used widely. Generally, the uniformity of appHcation is mote difficult to control when functional chemicals are sprayed than when they are appHed by a size press. Eunctional chemicals also can be appHed to heavier grades of paper or paperboard at the calender stack. 

Application of Wet-Strength Resins. Wet-strength resins seldom are appHed to the surface of paper for enhancing wet strength because the commercially available, cationic wet-strength resins are retained so effectively internally. However, wet-strength resins are appHed frequendy to the surface of towels and tissues as creping aids. 

Secondary Fiber. Increasing costs of taw fiber, legislative mandates for recycling (qv), and avadabdity of inexpensive waste papers have contfibuted to the increased use of recycled fibers. The use of secondary fiber in the United States has grown from 22% of pulp from all sources in 1978 to close to 31% (24 x 10 metric tons) in 1993 (3). Recycled fibers ate sometimes used in special writing papers, but the principal use is for the manufacture of linetboatd, newsprint, tissue, cereal boxes, towels, and molded paper products such as paper plates and egg cartons (see Packaging materials, containers AND INDUSTRIAL materials). 

Another significant end-use for polyamines is in preparation of paper wet-strength resins. These are polyamide, modified formaldehyde, and polyamine resins used to improve the physical strength of tissue, toweling, and packaging paper products. The cationic formaldehyde resins include both urea—formaldehyde and melamine—formaldehyde types (248,249). Cationic functionaHty is imparted by incorporation of DETA, TETA, and/or TEPA in...
