Effect of soda lime on the degradation of sevoflurane has been studied. Degradation products were investigated for their toxicity.[1]
Soda lime is a mixture of calcium hydroxide with sodium or potassium hydroxide. When not stored in sealed containers, it quickly deteriorates due to carbon dioxide and water absorption. In laboratories, it is also used as a drying agent.
Applicazioni
Soda lime can be used:
As a hydrolysis reagent in the synthesis of bentazone from isatoic anhydride.
In the monitoring of CO2 efflux from field soils.
In the direct measurement of dissolved CO2 (carbon dioxide) in supersaturated water.
Soda lime may be employed for the conversion of α-amino acids to primary amines.[2]
Materials presenting high optical nonlinearity, such as materials containing metal nanoparticles (NPs), can be used in various applications in photonics. This motivated the research presented in this paper, where morphological, linear and nonlinear optical characteristics of gold NPs on the
A low melting point soda-lime glass powder containing copper nanoparticles with high antibacterial (against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria) and antifungal activity has been obtained. Sepiolite fibres containing monodispersed copper nanoparticles (d(50) approximately 30 +/- 5 nm) were used as the

Several exposure campaigns of silica-soda-lime window glass have been performed in 30 European sites and 1 in Canada in order to understand, quantify and model the phenomenon of soiling. In this purpose samples were exposed sheltered from the rain. Parallel

Lime and soda-ash softening of reclaimed water reverse osmosis concentrates as a pretreatment step for concentration by seawater reverse osmosis was the focus of this study. The objectives were removal of the potential fouling minerals of calcium, magnesium, and silica
Anesthesia and analgesia, 110(3), 747-753 (2010-02-27)
Carbon monoxide (CO) can be produced in the anesthesia circuit when inhaled anesthetics are degraded by dried carbon dioxide absorbent and exhaled CO can potentially be rebreathed during low-flow anesthesia. Exposure to low concentrations of CO (12.5 ppm) can cause
