Title: Nitrocellulose?
Post by: The Student on 07/11/2010 06:44:14

Nitrocellulose made from Nitric and Sulfuric acid. What are some unforeseen dangers of working
with these substances: combustibility, inhalation, storage, properties?

Thank you to all!

Before we can tell what the unforeseen dangers are we need to know which ones you have foreseen.
For example, did you foresee being arrested for the illegal manufacture of explosives?
