The report describes the measurement of urinary organic halogen compounds. The method is an application of the adsorbable organic halogen assay which is widely used for the analysis of industrial ...

Increasing the recovery of valuable fossil raw materials, avoiding climate-damaging carbon dioxide emission, and stabilizing our energy supply network – these are the three major objectives of a new ...

Halogens are known to decrease the levels of stratospheric ozone. The latest measurements show that something similar occurs in the lower atmosphere over tropical oceans — and probably above most ...

Electronics companies have experienced some chemical reactions in the past two decades. Many will recall the European RoHS Directive (Restriction of Hazardous Substances), which came into force in ...

THE FIRST DIRECT atmospheric measurements of iodine oxide and bromine oxide above the Antarctic snowpack unexpectedly indicate that the chemicals participate in destroying ozone and change the ...

(Winona, MN) has expanded its line of halogen-free flame retardant (FR) compounds to include nylon and polyester grades. “Development of halogen-free FR materials by RTP has been driven by the global ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Containing Papers of a Mathematical and Physical Character, Vol. 124, No. 795 (Jul. 1, 1929), pp. 604-616 (13 pages) ...

SOME MARINE organisms have a knack for making steroidal compounds containing halogens. Chemists have long tried to do the same thing, because such compounds can be useful, for example, in treating ...

In aliphatic or aromatic compounds, the replacement of hydrogen atom(s) by halogen atom(s) results in the formation of alkyl halide (haloalkane) and aryl halide (haloarene), respectively. In case of ...
