Untreated

Pipelines are cleaned and inspected using pigs . Pigs usually have a steel body fitted with rubber cups and brushes or scrapers to remove wax and rust deposits on the pipe wall, as the pig is pumped along the pipe. Sometimes spherical pigs are used for product separation or controlling liquid hold up. In field lines handling untreated crude may have to be insulated to prevent wax formation. 

Drying oils. Place 3 ml. of hnseed oil in a test-tube, add about 01 g. of Utharge and boil the mixture gently for 10 minutes. When cold, pour a httle of the product on a watch glass and spread the oil into a thin film with the aid of a smah piece of paper. Pour a little of the untreated hnseed oil on another watch glass and spread it out as a thin film. Compare the times taken for the films to become dry. 

Acetate and triacetate are essentially unaffected by dilute solutions of weak acids, but strong mineral acids cause serious degradation. The results of exposure of heat-treated and untreated triacetate taffeta fabrics to various chemical reagents have been reported (9). Acetate and triacetate fibers are not affected by the perchloroethylene dry-cleaning solutions normally used in the United States and Canada. Trichloroethylene, employed to a limited extent in the UK and Europe, softens triacetate. 

Dehydration or Chemical Theory. In the dehydration or chemical theory, catalytic dehydration of ceUulose occurs. The decomposition path of ceUulose is altered so that flammable tars and gases are reduced and the amount of char is increased ie, upon combustion, ceUulose produces mainly carbon and water, rather than carbon dioxide and water. Because of catalytic dehydration, most fire-resistant cottons decompose at lower temperatures than do untreated cottons, eg, flame-resistant cottons decompose at 275—325°C compared with about 375°C for untreated cotton. Phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid [8014-95-7] are good examples of dehydrating agents that can act as efficient flame retardants (15—17). 

Regulatory Legislation. In Febmary 1978, the Consumer Products Safety Commission approved changes in the FF-3 and FF-5 standards for children s sleepwear. It eliminated the melt—drip time limit and coverage for sizes below 1 and revised the method of testing the trim. This permits the use of untreated 100% nylon and 100% polyester for children s sleepwear (157—162). 

Ethylene—tetrafluoroethylene copolymers respond weU to melt bonding to untreated aluminum, steel, and copper with peel strengths above 3.5 kN/m (20 Ibf/in.). Eor melt bonding to itself, hot-plate welding is used. The material is heated to 271—276°C, and the parts are pressed together during cooling. 

Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein. To modify functional properties, vegetable proteins such as those derived from soybean and other oil seeds can be hydrolyzed by acids or enzymes to yield hydrolyzed vegetable proteins (HVP). Hydrolysis of peptide bonds by acids or proteolytic enzymes yields lower molecular weight products useful as food flavorings. However, the protein functionaHties of these hydrolysates may be reduced over those of untreated protein. 

Factors which may affect the cost of coal upgrading are environmental considerations such as toxicity, hazardous waste disposal, and carcinogenic properties (131). These and other environmental problems from process streams, untreated wastewaters, and raw products would figure significantly into the cost of commercialization. 

Some treatments are practiced so widely that untreated material is essentially unknown ia the jewelry trade. The heating of pale Fe-containing chalcedony to produce red-brown carnelian is one of these. Another example iavolves turquoise where the treated material is far superior ia color stabiUty. Such treatments have traditionally not been disclosed. Almost all blue sapphire on the market has been heat treated, but it is not possible to distinguish whether it was near-colorless comndum containing Fe and Ti before treatment, or whether it had already been blue and was only treated ia an attempt at marginal improvement. The irradiation of colorless topa2 to produce a blue color more iatense than any occurring naturally is, however, self-evident, and treatments used on diamond are always disclosed. 

GibberelHc acid is also used successfliUy in rice culture to promote seed germination and the growth of semidwarf varieties. The treated seed can be planted deeper than normal. In addition, the sprouting seedlings are much taller than the untreated ones they compete weU against weeds. The material is sold under the trade name Release. 

Protocols allow for at least two vessels to test both the untreated control malodor and the treated malodor(s). The untreated control malodor is used as a reference point for the maximum malodor score. When panehsts evaluate each of the two or more vessels, they must wait a period of time (usually 30—60 s) for recovery from adaptation before smelling the next vessel. This step is always repeated between each evaluation. 

Commercially, 2inc sulfide is available in the standard untreated grade and in several grades having particles treated by surfactants (qv) to improve their dispersabiHty in either aqueous or organic media. 

Pigments are available ia a number of commercial forms including dry powders (either surface treated or untreated), presscakes, flushed colors (thick pastes), fluidi2ed dispersions (pourable pastes), resia predispersed pigments (powders), and plastic color concentrates or master batches (granules) (see PiGLffiNTDISPERSIONS). 

Steel stmctures should be protected by approved fireproofing treatment, eg, concrete or insulating, ie, intumescent or ablative materials untreated steel should be protected by some method of cooling, eg, a water-spray system. 

Repellents on Cloth. Each candidate repellent is appHed to a knit cotton stocking or cloth patch at 3.3 g/m cloth, usually as a 1% solution of active ingredient (AI) ia acetone. Two hours later, the stock or cloth patch is placed over an untreated nylon stocking on the arm of a subject, the hand covered, and the arm exposed to 1500 female mosquitoes for one minute. If fewer than five bites are counted, the test is repeated at 24 h, then weekly until failure, which is, by definition, five bites per minute. The standard mosquitoes used are Piedes aegppti Anopheles quadrimaculatus or M. albimanus. Candidate repellents ia cloth tests are ia one of the foUowiag classes class 1, effective 0 d class 2, 1—5 d class 3, 6—10 d class 4, 11—21 d and class 5, >21 d. 

This latter defect, if left untreated, has a high incidence of mortaUty.
