... This chapter represents an updated version of Chapter 25 of George E. Totten et al., Fuels and Lubricants Handbook . The chapter incorporates discussions on new test methods, updates, revisions, withdrawals of the different ASTM test methods dealing with volatility measurement procedures...

... performed on highly volatile liquids such as cleaning solvents has proven problematic due to inconsistent test results (nonignitions). Nonignition results can be misinterpreted as favorable oxygen compatibility, although they are more likely associated with inadequate fuel-to-oxidizer ratios. Forced...

... Auxins such as dicamba and 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) may volatilize when used as herbicides. In this work, a fast, straightforward method to determine the relative volatility of auxin formulations is presented. The method uses a sprayed soil substrate in a disposable closed dome...

... Clomazone is microencapsulated and sold in the U.S. as a dispersion in water, a capsule suspension (CS), under the name Command® 3ME herbicide. Our encapsulated formulation reduces the volatility of the active ingredient when it is applied to the soil surface in a typical agricultural spray use...

.... Foliar droplets were counted and pesticide concentrations were measured by gas-liquid-chromatography. Physical properties measured were: viscosity-shear rate relationship, surface tension and volatility. The data indicated that the presence of the polymeric adjuvants imparted pseudoplastic behavior...

.... Physical properties such as, viscosity, surface tension, volatility and pseudo-plastic behavior, were determined for the formulations. Spray drops of the three oil-based Dipel formulations were completely spread on Kromekote cards and fir foliage,, The degree of spreading was influenced by viscosity...

..., the water samples need to be taken in a manner that prevents the escape of volatile substances. The samples need to be kept close to the original state while in shipment to the water quality laboratory and at the laboratory where the water must be removed from the sample holders without the escape...

... The author investigated four solvents of varying volatility and water solubility in order to determine if workers can use gloves longer in chemical-resistant applications if they rinse their gloves periodically. The solvents were tested against glove materials selected to give moderate...

... tension was seen to be a contributing factor. Volatility did not show up as a major phytotoxicity determinant. The two grasses were seen to be more resistant to solvent-induced phytotoxicity than the two broadleafs. phytotoxicity pesticides agricultural chemicals oils solvents pendimethalin...

... A study of viscosity-temperature, viscosity-volatility, and viscosity-shear rate relationships was carried out for aqueous formulations of pesticides and adjuvants, in order to understand the influence of intermolecular interactions on physical properties. The data showed a general trend...

... The influence of absolute viscosity, surface tension, volatility, apparent viscosity-shear rate relationship, and distillation point on droplet size spectra and deposit characteristics was investigated for a wide range of petroleum and vegetable oils used in pesticide sprays, using Kromekote...

... A simple gravimetric method was developed to determine volatilities of spray mixtures and was compared with the droplet method. The method involved evaporation of a liquid film from a filter paper surface and provided greater precision than the droplet method. It also provided a greater...
