Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive scientific treatise on celluloid and other pyroxylin materials by the author who, in 1908, conducted the most rigorous examination of this material alongside the Steamboat-Inspection Service. Comprised of five chapters, it begins with a history of celluloid, its ingredients, and its various uses. The author then offers an in-depth examination of the decomposition that occurs at various temperatures with and without the presence of oxygen. The book's latter half describes other key characteristics of celluloid, including its flammability and combustibility, as well as its stability over time. The author concludes with a discussion of the environmental and health hazards, and the appropriate safety precautions that must be taken when handling and storing celluloid. This book is an essential resource for anyone working with or researching celluloid, and offers a thorough exploration of the physical characteristics and chemical reactions of this material.
