Nitroglycerin is primarily used to treat chest pain (angina) by dilating blood vessels to reduce the workload of the heart. It can also be used in emergency situations to relieve chest pain during a heart attack. Additionally, nitroglycerin can be administered as a spray, tablet, or patch for quick and effective results.
Sawdust can be used as a fuel in a sawdust stove because it is readily available, renewable, and burns efficiently. When compacted into briquettes, sawdust can produce heat and energy for cooking or heating purposes. It is a sustainable alternative to traditional fuels and helps reduce waste disposal issues.
The opposite of nitroglycerin would be a substance that is stable and not explosive.
Sawdust can be used to insulate ice by surrounding the ice with a thick layer of sawdust, which helps to minimize heat transfer between the ice and its surroundings. The sawdust acts as a barrier, preventing external heat from reaching the ice, thus helping to maintain its low temperature for a longer period. It is important to ensure that the sawdust is tightly packed around the ice to enhance its insulating properties.
Filtering the waste water through sawdust will remove large pieces of solid matter (such as grit, paper etc).
The major constituent of dynamite is nitroglycerin, which is an explosive compound. Nitroglycerin is typically mixed with an absorbent material like sawdust or clay to create a stable and safe-to-handle explosive compound.
TNT is trinitrotoluene. Dynamite is a mixture of nitroglycerin and an absorbent material of some kind such as diatomaceous earth or sawdust. Dynamite is safer to work with than either TNT or pure nitroglycerin as it's not nearly as sensitive to physical shocks (dropping, shaking, etc.).
True Enough- Peanut oil can be processed to produce glycerol, which can be used to make nitroglycerin, one of the constituents of dynamite. However, there are other processes that can be used to make dynamite without using peanuts at all.
Original, it was nitroglycerin packed in sawdust. This was because it was to unstable. This made it safer to use. Now, potassium nitrate of ammonium nitrate are used more commonly, because they are even more stable.
nitroglycerin was used to make parallel lines to build the railroad
No, sawdust was not used in any recipes.
Dynamite consists of three parts nitroglycerin, one part diatomaceous earth and a small admixture of sodium carbonate. Nitroglycerin was already know as an explosive but it was very unstable, Nobel's contribution was to make nitroglycerin stable by the addition of the other two substances.
No. Dynamite consists of three main parts: Nitroglycerin, An Absorbent (like sawdust), and Sodium Carbonate. These are combined, formed into small sticks, and then wrapped in paper with a wick added.
Dynamite contains nitroglycerin which "sweats" out of the dynamite and forms crystals on the outside when exposed to the outside air. nitroglycerin is very sensitive and shock can set it off thereby igniting the entire load.
It is made out of explosive materials and compounds. Such as potassium nitrate and ammonium nitrate which are explosive and used to make bombs. It first have a hard case filled with sawdust or a hard material that absorbs energy. That material is soaked with nitroglycerin which is an explosive chemical. Then a charger or cap covers it attached to a plug or fuse that detonates it. But getting nitroglycerin is sometimes dangerous so people mostly use potassium nitrate of ammonium nitrate for making dynamite.
A ton of sawdust typically weighs between 4000 to 6000 pounds, depending on the moisture content of the sawdust.
No, I have not used a vacuum attachment specifically designed for sawdust removal.
