Disposable and Arc Rated Chemical Suits

This webinar is designed to help the polymer scientist characterize polymeric materials using a variety of Thermal Analytical (TA) techniques like Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermal Mechanical Analysis (TMA) Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA, and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA).

For most labs the main equipment responsible for proper ventilation is the chemical fume hood. This webinar will cover the design of major types of chemical fume hoods, their features, and functions. The program will cover key differences between hood types and how to properly set up and adjust them to maintain efficient flows and optimum performance. This presentation will focus on the important basic aspects of proper operation and use of fume hoods. OSHA standards and other applicable guidelines and regulations will be covered, including NFPA.

Two hot topics will be covered by Christer Forsgren, Consultant in Industrial Recycling and Christian Ekberg, Prof. Energy and Material, Industrial Materials Recycling and Nuclear Chemistry.

The chemical recycling of plastic waste is championed by many companies as the enabling solution to a circular economy and their sustainability goals, but to others it is perceived as a damaging red herring.
