Thermal Stability and Decomposition Hazard of Sponge Blowing Agents
TN-81-1 |
Shigeru MORISAKI |
: The thermal decomposition of six sponge blowing agents was investigated with a pressure differential scanning calorimeter and a pressure thermobalance to evaluate their thermal hazard. Decomposition heats and kinetic constants in an atmosphere of inert gas or air were obtained using thermal analysis methods. |
The Influence of Mounting Method of Safety Guard for Portable Grinder on the Protective Effect --Cases on Safety Guards for Depressed Center Wheels--
TN-81-2 |
Soichi KUMEKAWA |
: Mounting methods of safety guards for portable grinders are divided roughly into two methods. |
On the Safety of Horizontal Lifeline Employed in Assembling or Demolition of Scaffolding
TN-81-3 |
Katsunori OGAWA and Yoshitada MORI |
: Dynamic characteristics of horizontal lifeline holding body with safety belt employed in assembling or demolition of frame scaffold which is applied with the aim of prevention of falling accidents were studied in this report. |
Analysis of Fatal Electric Shock Accidents Caused by Contacts with Distribution Line
TN-81-4 |
Kenji ICHIKAWA |
: In Japan, electric shock accidents in industries have recently decreased. In the meantime, those accidents which are caused by contacts with electric distribution lines account for about 40 percent of all electric shock accidents. |
