Concentrations of acetone in urine, alveolar air, and blood were measured by gas chromatography with flame ionisation detection for 110 subjects occupationally exposed to acetone (mean 372 ppm) in three factories. Significant relations were found between the time weighted average environmental concentration and the concentration in the biological samples. The strongest correlation was between t...

1 No portion of the emission reduction was achieved through reformulating any coatings with acetone. Some stains and basecoats have been reformulated with acetone as the primary solvent; however Ethan Allen has included acetone emissions in the 257 tons per year VOC figure. Acetone was removed from the U.S. EPA’s VOC list on June 16, 1995 and is not a listed HAP, but it remains as a listed HAC ...

Cellulose acetate fibers are commonly made by a dry-spinning process, in which cellulose acetate is firstly dissolved in acetone and then the cellulose acetate acetone solution is extruded through spinneret orifices that have extremely small diameters. Any insoluble substances in acetone solutions could cause disruptions in fiber extrusion, and are not tolerated. In this work, acetone-insoluble...

the phenolic compounds of pomegranate (punica granatum l.) peel extracted by two methods (solvent and ultrasound-assisted) with five solvents (acetone, methanol, ethanol, water and ethyl acetate) were compared with supercritical fluid extraction (sfe). the total phenolic compounds were determined according to the folin-ciocalteu reagent using tannic acid as standard. the overall results showed ...

In the title compound, C(10)H(11)NO(2)S, the acetyl-acetone group crystallizes in the keto form with all the non-hydrogen atoms in the acetyl-acetone group approximately co-planar with a maximum atomic deviation 0.055 (2) Å; the dihedral angle between the acetyl-acetone group and the pyridine ring is 85.90 (6)°. An intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond involving the acetyl-acetone group forms a s...
