The board is slow and I'm bored...

...so you should all post something entertaining. Granted, I understand it's not your job to keep me entertained, but help out and take one for the team.

This specification covers the requirements for Halon 1301, or halogenated hydrocarbon compound Bromotrifluoromethane (CF3Br) as a fire-fighting medium. The fire-fighting equipment or hardware that employs Halon 1301, the conditions of employing such equipment (for example, handhelds, fixed installations, etc.), and the storage or transportation of Halon 1301, are not addressed in this specification. The material shall be tested for purity, methanol impurity, acidity, water content, halogen ion content, nonvolatile residue, suspended matter and sediment, and fixed or nonabsorbable gases in the vapor phase.

That link leads to this: ASTM E88 - 91(2005) Standard Practice for Sampling Nonferrous Metals and Alloys in Cast Form for Determination of Chemical Composition

So, is this an abstract for Standard Practices based on finding out which chemical compositions, specifically, the Halon 1301 will be useful for?

LOL I have no clue, just trying to post something for you to read, being a helper.

Cidp24 is back, and in classic form too!

It's so very good to see you.

Whenever I'm online and bored I usually check out videos of interest on youtube, personally...
