Abstract
IN the book before us, the fourth of a series of manuals of chemical technology which are being published under the direction of Dr. Geoffrey Martin, the editor gives a concise account of the present condition of the chlorine industry, and of the applications of this substance to the manufacture of bleaching powder, hypochlorites, chlorates, perchlorates, etc., and of its use as a chlorinating agent; with short sections on the manufacture and industrial uses of bromine, iodine, hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids; and, by way of appendix, a chapter of some half-dozen pages, by Mr. G. W. Clough, on recent oxidising agents—of no very direct connection with the main subject-matter of the book.
Manuals of Chemical Technology: iv., Chlorine and Chlorine Products.
By Dr. G. Martin. Pp. viii + 100. (London: Crosby Lockwood and Son, 1915.) Price 7s. 6d. net.
