hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi aliciclici |
alicyclic hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi aliciclici |
alicyclic hydrocarbon (A class of organic compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen atoms joined to form one or more rings and having the properties of both aliphatic and cyclic substances) |
|
| idrocarburi alifatici |
aliphatic hydrocarbon (Hydrocarbons having an open chain of carbon atoms, whether normal or forked, saturated or unsaturated) |
|
| idrocarburi alifatici |
aliphatic hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi alogenati |
halogenated hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi alogenati |
halogenated hydrocarbon (One of a group of halogen derivatives of organic hydrogen and carbon containing compounds; the group includes monohalogen compounds (alkyl or aryl halides) and polyhalogen compounds that contain the same or different halogen atoms) |
|
| idrocarburi aromatici |
aromatic hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi aromatici |
aromatic hydrocarbon (Hydrocarbons having an unsaturated ring containing alternating double and single bonds, especially containing a benzene ring) |
|
| idrocarburi aromatici policiclici |
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (Hydrocarbons containing two or more closed rings of atoms) |
|
| idrocarburi aromatici policiclici |
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi clorofluorurati parzialmente alogenati |
partially halogenated chlorofluorohydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi clorofluorurati parzialmente alogenati |
partially halogenated chlorofluorohydrocarbon (Hydrocarbons whose hydrogen atoms have been partially substituted with chlorine and fluorine. They are used in refrigeration, air conditioning, packaging, insulation, or as solvents and aerosol propellants. Because they are not destroyed in the lower atmosphere they drift into the upper atmosphere where their chlorine components destroy ozone) |
|
| idrocarburi clorurati |
chlorinated hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi clorurati |
chlorinated hydrocarbons |
|
| idrocarburi clorurati |
chlorinated hydrocarbon (A class of persistent, broad-spectrum insecticides that linger in the environment and accumulate in the food chain. Among them are DDT, aldrin, dieldrin, heptachlor, chlordane, lindane, endrin, mirex, hexachloride, and toxaphene. In insects and other animals these compounds act primarily on the central nervous system. They also become concentrated in the fats of organisms and thus tend to produce fatty infiltration of the heart and fatty degeneration of the liver in vertebrates. In fishes they have the effect of preventing oxygen uptake, causing suffocation. They are also known to slow the rate of photosynthesis in plants. Their danger to the ecosystem resides in their rate stability and the fact that they are broad-spectrum poisons which are very mobile because of their propensity to stick to dust particles and evaporate with water into the atmosphere) |

polycyclic hydrocarbon |
|
| idrocarburi policiclici |
polycyclic hydrocarbon (Hydrocarbon molecule with two or more nuclei; examples are naphtalene, with two benzene rings side by side, or diphenyl, with two bond-connected benzene rings. Also known as polynuclear hydrocarbon) |
