1/29: Amines 101 for Metalworking Fluids, Pat Brutto
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency pulled back significant new use rules for three hydrocarbons which are used as "extreme pressure additives" in Metalworking Fluids.
Do you what are Amines? Even I didn't know until today. Recently I attended an evening seminar arranged by our Metalworking Fluid supplier. Like many others, for me the objective to attend the event was just to enjoy cocktail dinner. I am using their fluids already so they do not have anything more to sell me. During the presentations I heard this word "amines" quite frequently and I felt as if I am the most uneducated man in the group who is clueless about amines.
A Laclede County jury has ordered a Missouri company to pay $28 million to a worker who claimed his lungs were damaged at a compressor plant in south-central Missouri because of Metalworking Fluid.
In the United States, the modern Thanksgiving holiday tradition is commonly, but not universally, traced to a poorly documented 1621 celebration at Plymouth in present-day Massachusetts. The 1621 Plymouth feast and thanksgiving was prompted by a good harvest. Pilgrims and Puritans who began emigrating from England in the 1620s and 1630s carried the tradition of Days of Fasting and Days of Thanksgiving with them to New England.
