Aerosols

An aerosol (abbreviation of "aero-solution") is a suspension of fine solid particles or liquid droplets in air or another gas. Aerosols can be natural or anthropogenic. Examples of natural aerosols are fog, mist, dust, forest exudates and geyser steam. Examples of anthropogenic aerosols are particulate air pollutants and smoke. The liquid or solid particles have diameters typically less than 1 μm; larger particles with a significant settling speed make the mixture a suspension, but the distinction is not clear-cut. In general conversation, aerosol usually refers to an aerosol spray that delivers a consumer product from a can or similar container. …

8.7 Aerosol Propellants Aerosols have many different applications. Aerosols are often divided into the the categories of consumer aerosols, technical aerosols, and medical aerosols. Suitable lique�ied gas propellants are in use. HFO-1234ze(E) is used in consumer aerosols, and research is being conducted on the safety Inhalers (MDIs).
