CREATE A SAFER ENVIRONMENT FOR HANDLING VOLATILE & HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS: DEVELOPMENT OF SUITABLE PROCESS FOR COMPOSITION MANUFACTURE & FILLING OF SMOKE SHELL.
Smoke composition is made of TiCl4 & CaSio3. TiCl4 is tough to handle, as it is a volatile liquid and in contact with humid air it forms opaque clouds. Reaction of TiCl4 with air is an exothermic reaction and poses a safety hazard if not handled appropriately. Suitable methodology to be devised for:
Handling of TiCl4
Absorption of TiCl4 with CaSio3 (Hydrous pulverised calcium silicate)
Filling of compositions in the Smoke Shell
