1,4-Dioxane (/ d aɪ ˈ ɒ k s eɪ n /) is a heterocyclic organic compound, classified as an ether. It is a colorless liquid with a faint sweet odor similar to that of diethyl ether . The compound is often called simply dioxane because the other dioxane isomers ( 1,2- and 1,3- ) are rarely encountered.
An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.
PLGA is synthesized by means of ring-opening co-polymerization of two different monomers, the cyclic dimers (1,4-dioxane-2,5-diones) of glycolic acid and lactic acid. Polymers can be synthesized as either random or block copolymers thereby imparting additional polymer properties.
Samples taken Wednesday found 1,4-dioxane at one of five sample sites, at levels just over one part per billion. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency considers 1,4-dioxane, ...
People wonder about the health risks they face – from driving on Interstate 4, to sun exposure, to consuming alcohol, to eating bacon and more – but drinking tap water usually isn’t one of them.
The benzodioxans are a group of isomeric chemical compounds with the molecular formula C 8 H 8 O 2. [1] There are three isomers of benzodioxan, as the second atom of oxygen of the dioxane can be in a second, third or fourth position: 1,2-dioxane, 1,3-dioxane and 1,4-dioxane, which respectively give 1,2-benzodioxan, 1,3-benzodioxan and 1,4-benzodioxan.
That fact — revealed in the Sentinel’s “Toxic Secret” investigation — thrusted 1,4-dioxane’s worrisome prevalence onto the public’s radar last month, irking Seminole County residents ...
1,4-Dioxane contamination [ edit ] Products containing SLES can be contaminated with up to 300 ppm of 1,4-dioxane , a by-product of SLES production. 1,4-Dioxane is classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as a Group 2B carcinogen : possibly carcinogenic to humans .
