Pyrotechnic Smoke Compositions Containing Boron Carbide
Smokes are used on the battlefield for signaling, for marking targets, and for screening troop movements. Many high-performance compositions are toxic or hazardous, while non-toxic alternatives offer sub-par performance. The environmentally benign compositions described herein use boron carbide as a pyrotechnic fuel to produce thick clouds of white smoke. Experimentation and thermodynamic model...
متن کاملDetermination of Pesticide Residues in Cannabis Smoke
The present study was conducted in order to quantify to what extent cannabis consumers may be exposed to pesticide and other chemical residues through inhaled mainstream cannabis smoke. Three different smoking devices were evaluated in order to provide a generalized data set representative of pesticide exposures possible for medical cannabis users. Three different pesticides, bifenthrin, diazin...
متن کاملToxicity Evaluation of Smoke Pyrotechnic Compositions Based on the Dimensional Analysis of Solid Combustion Products
The use of smoke pyrotechnic compositions bring during use an intoxication risk to the staff located in the immediate proximity. One of the methods for pyrotechnic composition toxicity evaluation consists in the dimensional analysis of the solid particles resulted from the combustion and the determination of the respiratory system intrusion rate. The experimental determinations were performed f...
متن کاملPyrotechnic Universe
One of the central points of the ekpyrotic cosmological scenario based on Hor̆ava-Witten theory is that we live on a negative tension brane. However, the tension of the visible brane in HW theory, as well as in relevant cases of non-standard embedding, is positive. To make this scenario realistic one must solve the problem of the negative cosmological constant on the visible brane and fine-tune ...
متن کاملEnvironmentally Benign Pyrotechnic Delays
Pyrotechnic delays are used in commercial and military items requiring a time delay between two energetic events. For example, US Army hand-held signals (HHS) use a delay element to properly sequence the expulsion of illuminating rounds at the rockets’ apex. Many military delay formulations contain barium, lead, chromates, and perchlorates. The US Army is reformulating pyrotechnic items to remo...
