Condensed aerosol fire suppression systems employ a fire-extinguishing agent consisting of very finely divided solid particles, suspended in an inert gas. Those superfine aerosol particles are pyrotechnically generated via the combustion of an aerosol-forming agent (AFA) which is stable at room temperature and does not need to be stored in a ...
Spray containing propane, butane, and ethanol, for dental applications. Freeze spray (cold spray or vapocoolant) is a type of aerosol spray product containing a liquified gas used for rapidly cooling surfaces, in medical and industrial applications.
Several factors must be assessed to determine if a chemical is a suitable substitute including potential hazards, exposure, technical feasibility, and low-budget considerations. [3] After substitutes are proposed, the risks of each substitute are compared to one another and tested until a suitable substitution is found.
HFCs are also used in insulating foams, aerosol propellants, as solvents and for fire protection. They may not harm the ozone layer as much as the compounds they replace, but they still contribute to global warming --- with some like trifluoromethane having 11,700 times the warming potential of carbon dioxide.

Medical gas therapy is a treatment involving the administration of various gases. It has been used in medicine since the use of oxygen therapy . [ 1 ] Most of these gases are drugs, including oxygen. [ 2 ]
1,1-Difluoroethane, or DFE, is an organofluorine compound with the chemical formula C 2 H 4 F 2.This colorless gas is used as a refrigerant, where it is often listed as R-152a (refrigerant-152a) or HFC-152a (hydrofluorocarbon-152a).
The delivery of the aerosol is directly through the flutes of the tool (it arrives directly through or around the insert itself—an ideal type of cutting fluid delivery that traditionally has been unavailable outside of a few contexts such as gun drilling or expensive, state-of-the-art liquid delivery in production milling). MQL's aerosol is ...
The aerosol spray canister invented by USDA researchers, Lyle Goodhue and William Sullivan.. The concepts of aerosol probably go as far back as 1790. [1] The first aerosol spray can patent was granted in Oslo in 1927 to Erik Rotheim, a Norwegian chemical engineer, [1] [2] and a United States patent was granted for the invention in 1931. [3]
