What is the temperature of gel packs?

I believe it depends on each gel pak. For instance we carry Propak® Gel Paks, see http://www.millersupplyinc.com/index.php, for the product. If you go to the link below, it states all of the properties that the ProPak® gel paks contain. Find out the name brand of your gel pak and there should be some sort of Material Safety Data Sheets(MSDS) that you can find on the web that can tell you about that specific gel pak.http://www.propakproducts.com/images/pdfs/MSDS_ProPak_Gel_Packs.pdf


Is 2 3-butanedione soluble in water?

Isobutanol only partly dissolves in water. Lower carbon chain alcohols like methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl alcohols are 100% miscible in water, but isobutanol, also known as isobutyl alcohol or 2-Methyl-1-Propanol, is only partly soluble in water. Solubility data is usually given at a specified temperature, as temperature can affect the solubility. According to the "SIDS Initial Assessment Report For SIAM 19" (Berlin, Germany, 19-22 October 2004), isobutanol dissolves in water at the rates shown below. Note that temperature data are not provided for ALL examples/sources. Also, note that this kind of data can be found on Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), chemical encyclopedias, chemical dictionaries, and other technical references (again see examples below). MSDSs are furnished by manufacturers to provide warnings and specify what they believe to be generally accurate physical characteristics of the material they are specifying. Sometimes this MSDA data varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, depending on the compound and where/how they derived their information. While an MSDS usually specifies the water solubility, only sometimes does it specify the reverse, how much isobutanol will dissolve in water; these two characteristics do not have the same numbers. When isobutanol has dissolved the maximum amount of water at a certain temperature, we say that the isobutanol is "saturated." At that point, adding more water will not result in a higher concentration of water in isobutanol, but results instead in the formation of two separate phases (liquids), one heavier than the other, with an isobutanol layer that is saturated with water floating on top, and the alcohol mixed with water phase sinking to the bottom. Shaking the two liquids will cause them to mix, but the two liquids will separate on standing. Also, remember that like many alcohols, isobutanol forms an azeotrope, that is, a mixture that can not be 100% separated by simple distillation.

The specific gravity of a product can be found in the MSDS. How do you know if the product will float in water?

If the specific gravity is less than 1, the product will float in water ... unless it dissolves in water or reacts with water, which information might be elsewhere in the SDS.

Yes.


What is the specific gravity of water compared to wax?

An online review of suppliers of paraffin wax indicates a range of specific gravity for paraffin wax, from 0.82 to 0.96. The variation arises from the degree of refining - the less refined waxes a higher percentage of paraffin oil and are consequently lighter (have a lower SG). More highly refined paraffin wax has much lower retained oil ( approx. 0.5%), and are therefore much denser.


What is the density of Sodium hydroxide in pounds per cubic feet?

http://www.jtbaker.com/msds/englishhtml/s4034.htm The specific gravity of Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is 2.13. The density of Water (H20) is 62.43 lbm·ft−3. So, the density of NaOH = 2.13 * 62.43 = 132.9759 lb/ft^3


How many months for updated chemicals on MSDS?

In the US, there is no specific time period within which chemical ingredients must be updated on an MSDS. The MSDS must be updated and distributed to customers whenever significant new information becomes known to the manufacturer.


What is a MSDS BOOK?

MSDS is an abbreviation for material safety data sheet. An MSDS is a standardized form that communicates stewardship and workplace safety information for a given product. MSDS are available for most consumer goods, utilized by first responders in emergency situations and can assist chemists in laboratory work. These are just some of the implications of where and when MSDS are utilized. MSDS are authored by the manufacture, usually by someone with specific training and a background in industrial hygiene, chemistry, chemical engineering or a related field. Online-MSDS by KHA is a great place to find examples of MSDS. MSDS are regulated by different chemical agencies. In the US, OSHA is the primary regulator that mandates how and where MSDS must be made available to workers.

Where will you find a MSDS?

The company you work for must provide a notebook containing all MSDSs for every material used. If however you are looking for a specific MSDS unrelated to you work (or are responsible for adding new MSDSs to the company notebook), the easiest way to get an MSDS is to request it from the company that makes that product.


How long are MSDS kept for?

As long as the industry you are in is using the specific product covered by the MSDS you must maintain the MSDS sheets in your records. Once you cease using a specific product covered by the MSDS and all inventory is used and no further product is going to be coming in, then you need only maintain it for a period of one year from the time you quit using the product. You would be best to contact the local OHSA or WCB branch and ask them for the requirements for records maintenance, they are very helpful and will be happy to answer your questions.
