Effect of ULV malathion on automotive paint finishes.

چکیده
The relationship between malathion droplet size (VMD) and degree of damage to 1990, 1K and 2K General Motors paint standards was investigated in the laboratory and field. Laboratory tests indicated a positive correlation between malathion droplet VMD and damage spot size. Laboratory settling chamber tests revealed that size-thresholds of droplets too small to cause visible damage averaged 8 and 11 mu on washed 1K and 2K paints, respectively. Field tests indicated malathion caused no visible damage to 1K or 2K paint panels under routine operating conditions, although droplet sizes (VMD) sampled on the automobile surface averaged 10.2 +/- 4.5 and 11.7 +/- 5.7 mu. Microscopic damage was found on paint panels placed on the hood, roof, trunk and doors of the automobile when parked parallel or perpendicular to the course of the spray truck and when driven through the spray of a stationary spray truck.

Computational Automotive Color Appearance
A computer graphic system has been developed that permits the interactive design of new automotive finishes. The software makes use of a reflection model for car paint that is based on industry standards for measuring the appearance characteristics of the paint. These measurements include gloss for the clearcoat and three aspecular measurements for the metallic basecoat. The program interface p...

متن کاملComparison of ground and aerial ultra-low volume applications of malathion against Aedes aegypti in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Efficacy of ground and aerial ultra-low volume (ULV) applications of 91% malathion at 438 ml/ha against Aedes aegypti in the Dominican Republic was evaluated using indoor collections, oviposition trapping and adult sentinel mortality rates. Ground compared to aerial ULV applications in this study were found to have a greater effect on Ae. aegypti when measured by the described sampling techniqu...
متن کاملEfficacy of a ULV insecticide mixture (HAN-malathion-resmethrin) against caged Culex mosquitoes.
Ground applied ultralow volume spraying is part ofthe integrated pest management program undertaken by the Saginaw County Mosquito Abatement Commission, and as such, is subject to scrutiny of its effectiveness in the program. For several years, the Commission relied almost exclusively on ultralow volume (ULV) malathion in the adulticiding program but always had problems effectively controlling ...
متن کاملA probabilistic risk assessment for deployed military personnel after the implementation of the "Leishmaniasis Control Program" at Tallil Air Base, Iraq.
Leishmaniasis has been of concern to the U.S. military and has re-emerged in importance because of recent deployments to the Middle East. We conducted a retrospective probabilistic risk assessment for military personnel potentially exposed to insecticides during the "Leishmaniasis Control Plan" (LCP) undertaken in 2003 at Tallil Air Base, Iraq. We estimated acute and subchronic risks from resme...
