Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Chemical reactions that take place in a ball mill and in the absence of a bulk reaction solvent present different safety profiles to stirred solution reactions. Herein, we present and describe steps that a researcher may take to better ensure that they have considered some of the hazards and measures that emerge and minimize the risk to themselves and their colleagues.
