Introduction Meitnerium (Mt) mainly has 7 isotopes that are denoted as the half-life. The key isotopes of the elements can be written as $\mathrm{{276}_{Mt}}$. The relative atomic mass of these elements which generates radiation is 277. The element behaves like a solid at 20°C which can be determined as the room temperature. Meitnerium (Mt), is the element that can be found in the d-block of the periodic table and in group 9. A cubic and crystalline structure proves that Meitnerium (Mt) has similarity with iridium. The element has the atomic radius of 128 pm. The density of Meitnerium (Mt) is ... Read More

Introduction The element of potassium was first discovered by a well-known British chemist named Sir Humphry Davy in the year, 1807. The element was first, separated through the process of electrolysis from the compound named caustic potash or (KOH) that was in the molten state. However, potassium was collated in the cathode present within the system of electrolysis. Figure 1: Potassium: Chemical element characteristics and uses Potassium and Its Occurrences The element of potassium is considered as the second lightest element, in simple words, potassium has the least density that is placed just after the element lithium. Potassium ... Read More

Introduction Polymer compounds are one of the most significant compounds as they are vastly used for various purposes. Polyurethane is an organic polymer commonly used for coatings in products. Polyurethane is used to prepare high-quality paints that offer better durability than traditional pains. It does not melt or boil upon heating. These are thermosetting polymers. Polyurethanes are produced with the linkage of urethane molecules bonds. What is Polyurethane? Polyurethane, also known as PU or PUR is a type of organic polymer created by the linkage of many organic units via urethane molecules. Most of them do not melt by applying ... Read More

Introduction Polymers are generally composed due to the reaction of di or tri-isocyanate with one polyol. Additionally, Polyurethane is another synthetic resin-type varnish. Moreover, there are various applications of the polyurethane foam such as sponges uses for washrooms and kitchens in every household and applied widely in the manufacturing units. Information about Polyurethane Foam Both of the elements, isocyanates and polyols can be used to construct the polyurethanes, on average hold two or more two functional groups of each molecule. In 2002, PUFs has proposed to be employed as the passive samplers in chemistry. In the housing properties, the PUFs ... Read More

Introduction At the end of the 18th century, Potassium Chlorate was first discovered by one French chemist named, Claude Louis Berthollet.
