    Book SynopsisThis book describes fluorocarbons gases' preparation process, properties, applications and their evolution over time. The impact of fluorocarbons on the ozone layer and global and the development to mitigate those effects have been specially emphasized. The first major industrial fluorinated compound was developed in the 1920's, to replace ammonia and sulfur dioxide refrigerants, at the General Motors Frigidaire Division by Thomas Midgley, Jr. and Albert Leon Henne. They developed a family of fluorocarbons trademarked Freon for auto air conditioning units revolutionizing the auto industry. Other applications were developed over time including fire extinguishers, propellants, blowing agents, cleaners, anesthesia, artificial blood and others impacting every facet of life. In spite of being in broad global use for nearly a century, fluorocarbon gases have gone through great evolution during the last few decades. In the 1980s it was discovered chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gaseTable of ContentsPreface xi 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Terminology 1 1.2 Production and Consumption Statistics of Fluorocarbons 3 1.2.1 Refrigerants: Market Trends and Supply Chain Assessment 3 1.2.2 Fluorocarbon Consumption Demand 6 1.3 Production and Consumption Statistics of Fluoropolymers 7 1.4 Production and Consumption Statistics of Fluoroelastomers 9 1.5 Production and Consumption Statistics of Fluorinated Coatings 9 1.6 Specialty Fluorochemicals 10 References 10 2 Classification and Description of Commercial Fluorinated Compounds 13 2.1 Fluorine and Fluorochemicals 13 2.2 Fluorocarbons 13 2.3 Designations for Fluorocarbons 15 2.4 Fluoropolymers and Fluoroelastomers 22 2.4.1 Fluoropolymers 23 2.4.2 Fluoroelastomers 24 2.5 Fluorinated Coatings 26 2.6 Summary 27 References 27 3 Fluorine Sources and Basic Fluorocarbon Reactions 29 3.1 Role of Fluorine in Fluorocarbons 29 3.2 Fluorine Sources 30 3.3 Fluorocarbon Compounds 34 3.4 Hydrofluoric Acid 34 3.4.1 Manufacturing Hydrofluoric Acid 34 3.5 Aliphatic Fluorinated Organic Compounds 35 3.6 Synthesis of Fluorocarbons 36 References 38 4 Applications of Fluorocarbon Gases and Liquids 41 4.1 Refrigeration and Air Conditioning 41 4.1.1 Refrigeration Applications 46 4.1.1.1 Chillers 46 4.1.1.2 Cold Storage Warehouses 46 4.1.1.3 Commercial Ice Machines 47 4.1.1.4 Household Refrigerators and Freezers 47 4.1.1.5 Ice Skating Rinks 48 4.1.1.6 Industrial Process Air Conditioning 48 4.1.1.7 Industrial Process Refrigeration 48 4.1.1.8 Motor Vehicle Air Conditioning 48 4.1.1.9 Non-Mechanical Heat Transfer Systems 48 4.1.1.10 Residential and Light Commercial Air Conditioning and Heat Pumps 48 4.1.1.11 Residential Dehumidifiers 48 4.1.1.12 Refrigerated Transport 49 4.1.1.13 Retail Food Refrigeration 49 4.1.1.14 Vending Machines 49 4.1.1.15 Very Low Temperature Refrigeration 49 4.1.1.16 Water Coolers 49 4.2 Oil in Refrigerants 49 4.2.1 Oil Return 51 4.3 Monomers and Intermediates 51 4.4 Foam Blowing 52 4.4.1 Foam Blowing Agents 52 4.4.2 Foaming Process 54 4.4.3 Flexible Polyurethane Foams 59 4.5 Aerosol Propellants 60 4.6 Fire Extinguishing Agents 61 4.6.1 Aerospace Fire Extinguishing 63 4.7 Cleaning and Drying Solvents 66 4.8 Carrier Fluids/Lubricant Deposition 70 4.9 Heat Transfer 71 4.10 Etchants 72 4.10.1 What is Etching?

  • Introduction to Strategies for Organic Synthesis

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Introduction to Strategies for Organic Synthesis

    Book SynopsisBridging the Gap Between Organic Chemistry Fundamentals and Advanced Synthesis Problems Introduction to Strategies of Organic Synthesis bridges the knowledge gap between sophomore-level organic chemistry and senior-level or graduate-level synthesis to help students more easily adjust to a synthetic chemistry mindset. Beginning with a thorough review of reagents, functional groups, and their reactions, this book prepares students to progress into advanced synthetic strategies. Major reactions are presented from a mechanistic perspective and then again from a synthetic chemist's point of view to help students shift their thought patterns and teach them how to imagine the series of reactions needed to reach a desired target molecule. Success in organic synthesis requires not only familiarity with common reagents and functional group interconversions, but also a deep understanding of functional group behavior and reactivity.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis new volume provides a timely study on the environmental challenges from a specific class of perfluorinated chemical compounds (PFCs) that are now being recognized as a worldwide health threat. Recent studies report that levels of classes of PFCs known as polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl (PFASs) exceed federally recommended safety levels in public drinking-water supplies for 6 million people in the United States and that as many as 100 million people could be at risk from exposure to these chemicals. These chemicals occur globally in wildlife and humans. Both PFCAs and PFSAs have been produced for more than 50 years, but have only become of interest to regulators and environmentalists since the late 1990s. Recent advances in analytical methodology has enabled widespread detection in the environment and humans at trace levels. These toxic chemicals have been found in outdoor and indoor air, surface and drinking water, house dust, animal tissue, human blood serum, and humTable of ContentsPreface ix About the Author xv Abbreviations and Acronyms xvii Useful Conversion Factors xxi 1 What Fluoropolymers Are 1 1.1 Introduction 1 1.2 Evolution of Fluoropolymers and the Markets 3 1.3 PFAS Compounds 6 1.3.1 General Description 6 1.3.2 How They Are Made 10 1.3.3 The Proliferation of PFAS 15 1.4 Terminology 17 References 19 2 Definitions, Uses, and Evolution of PFCs 21 2.1 Perfluorinated Chemicals (PFCs) Of Interest 21 2.2 The PFC Family 43 2.3 PFOS 44 2.4 PFOA 49 2.5 Fluorotelomers 50 References 52 3 Fire Fighting Foams 55 3.1 What AFFFs Are 55 3.2 Environmental Impacts 58 References 62 4 Health Risk Studies 63 4.1 General 63 4.2 PFOA 65 4.3 PFOS 77 4.4 EFSA – EU Food and Safety Authority Findings 77 References 90 5 Overview of the Environmental Concerns 91 5.1 Where It All Began 91 5.2 Emerging Contaminants of Concern 93 5.3 PFOS 96 5.4 PFOA 100 References 107 6 The Supply Chain and Pathways to Contamination 109 6.1 Losses Along the Supply Chain and End of Life 109 6.2 Consumer Articles 119 6.3 Consumer Exposure to PFOS and PFOA 124 References 127 7 Standards, Advisories, and Restrictions 129 7.1 Extent of Groundwater Contamination in the United States 129 7.2 The U.S. Water Quality Standards 133 7.3 Remedial Guidelines 142 7.4 Standards in Other Countries 143 7.4.1 United Kingdom 144 7.4.2 Canada 144 7.4.3 Germany 145 7.4.4 Norway 145 7.4.5 European Union (EU) 146 7.4.6 OECD 148 7.4.7 Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) 149 7.4.8 United Nation’s Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) 150 References 151 8 Overview of Water Treatment Technology Options 153 8.1 Technology Options 153 8.2 Case Studies, Literature, and Technologies 156 Reference 163 9 Adsorption Technology 165 9.1 Overview 165 9.2 Activated Carbon and Other Carbonaceous Adsorbents 169 9.3 Zeolites 178 9.4 Polymeric Adsorbents 179 9.5 Oxidic Adsorbents 180 9.6 Adsorption Theory Basics and Isotherms 181 9.7 Adsorption of PFOA 186 9.8 Hardware and Operational Considerations 189 9.9 Backwashing 196 9.10 Permitting 197 9.11 Spent Carbon Management 197 9.12 Recommended References 198 References 201 10 Case Studies 203 10.1 PFOA in Southern New Hampshire 203 10.2 Former Wurtsmith Air Force Base 206 10.3 Dupont Washington Works in West Virginia 213 10.4 PFC Contamination in Minnesota 218 References 228 Index 229

    Book SynopsisWritten by one of the world''s foremost authorities on the subject, this is the most comprehensive and in-depth treatment available to environmental engineers and scientists for the remediation of groundwater, one of the earth''s most precious resources. Groundwater is one of the Earth''s most precious resources. We use it for drinking, bathing, and many other purposes. Without clean water, humans would cease to exist. Unfortunately, because of ignorance or lack of caring, groundwater is often contaminated through industrialization, construction or any number of other ways. It is the job of the environmental engineer to remediate the contaminated groundwater and make what has been tainted safe again.Selecting the proper remediation strategy and process is the key to moving forward, and, once this process has been selected, it must be executed properly, taking into consideration the costs, the type of contaminants that are involved, time frames, and many other factors.<Table of ContentsPreface xi About the Author xv 1 Conducting Groundwater Quality Investigations 1 1.1 Introduction 1 1.2 Evolution of Site Assessments 2 1.3 Technology Limitations and Cleanup

    Book SynopsisBefore the 1970s, most information concerning the conservation and restoration of paintings, wood, and archaeological artefacts were focused on the history of the artefacts, previous attempts of conservation, and the future use of these artefacts. The technical methods of how the restoration and conservation were made were dealt with only very briefly. Today, sophisticated methods of scientific analysis such as DNA are common place, and this encourages conservators and scientists to work together to work out the development of new methods for analysis and conservation of artefacts. This book focuses on the chemicals used for conservation and restoration of various artefacts in artwork and archaeology, as well as special applications of these materials. Also the methods used, both methods for cleaning, conservation and restoration, as well as methods for the analysis of the state of the respective artefacts. Topics include oil paintings, paper conservation, textiles and dyes fTable of ContentsPreface xiii 1 Paintings 1 1.1 Cleaning 1 1.2 Varnishes 41 1.3 Methods and Materials for Conservation 47 1.4 Analysis and Analytical Methods 70 1.5 Forgeries 81 2 Textiles 95 2.1 Textile Colors 95 2.2 Textiles from Various Locations 101 2.3 Processing Methods 108 3 Archaeological Wood 113 3.1 Analysis Methods 113 3.2 Materials for Conservation 122 3.3 Degradation 131 3.4 Special Properties 137 4 Fossils 149 4.1 Monograph 149 4.2 Paleontological Skill and the Role of the Fossil Preparator 149 4.3 Analysis Methods 150 4.4 Conservation Methods 163 5 Stones 177 5.1 Deterioration Processes 178 5.2 Analytical Methods 187 5.3 Conservation Methods 193 6 Glass 213 6.1 Analytical Methods 213 6.2 Cleaning Methods 217 6.3 Production Practices 229 6.4 Special Uses of Glass Materials 231 7 Archaeological Metals 237 7.1 Cleaning Methods 247 7.2 Special References 262 Index 267 Acronyms 267 Chemicals 269 General Index 273

    Book SynopsisGet to know the sociopolitical context behind microaggressions Microaggressions are brief, everyday exchanges that send denigrating messages to certain individuals because of their group membership (e.g., race, gender, culture, religion, social class, sexual orientation, etc.). These daily, common manifestations of aggression leave many people feeling vulnerable, targeted, angry, and afraid. How has this become such a pervasive part of our social and political rhetoric, and what is the psychology behind it? In Microaggression Theory, the original research team that created the microaggressions taxonomy, Gina Torino, David Rivera, Christina Capodilupo, Kevin Nadal, and Derald Wing Sue, address these issues head-on in a fascinating work that explores the newest findings of microaggressions in their sociopolitical context. It delves into how the often invisible nature of this phenomenon prevents perpetrators from realizing and confronting their own complicitTable of ContentsAcknowledgments xi About the Editors xiii About the Authors xv Part I Microaggression Theory 1 1 Everything YouWanted to Know About Microaggressions but Didn’t Get a Chance to Ask 3Gina C.
