Octene-1

Octene-1 is an alpha-olefin, meaning that the double bond is located at the alpha (primary) position, endowing this compound with higher reactivity and thus useful chemical properties. Octene-1 is one of the important linear alpha olefins in industry. The primary, even overwhelming, use of 1-octene is as a comonomer in production of polyethylene. High-density polyethylene and linear low-density polyethylene use approximately 2-4% and 8-10% of comonomers, respectively. Another significant use of 1-octene is for production of linear aldehyde via OXO Synthesis (hydroformylation) for later production of the short-chain fatty acid nonanoic acid, a carboxylic acid, by oxidation of an intermediate aldehyde or linear alcohols for plasticizer application by hydrogenation of the aldehyde.

Phosgene

Phosgene is a valued industrial reagent and building block in synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. In low concentrations, its odor resembles freshly cut hay or grass. In addition to its industrial production, small amounts occur naturally from the breakdown and the combustion of organochlorine compounds, such as those used in refrigeration systems.

Properties

Platinum

Platinum is a transition metal. It occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with some native deposits, mostly in South Africa. It is used in catalytic converters, laboratory equipment, electrical contacts and electrodes, platinum resistance thermometers, dentistry equipment, and jewelry. Because only a few hundred tonnes are produced annually, it is a scarce material, and is highly valuable and is a major precious metal commodity. Being a heavy metal, it leads to health issues upon exposure to its salts, but due to its corrosion resistance it is not toxic as a metal. Some of its compounds, most notably cisplatin, are applied in chemotherapy against certain types of cancer.

Polonium

Polonium is a rare and highly radioactive element, discovered in 1898 by Marie Sklodowska-Curie and Pierre Curie. It has been studied for possible use in heating spacecraft. As it is unstable, all isotopes of polonium are radioactive. ²¹⁰Po can be used as an atomic heat source to power radioisotope thermoelectric generators via thermoelectric materials. Because of its very high toxicity, polonium can be used as a poison. It is also used to eliminate dust on film.

Rubidium

Rubidium is metallic element of the alkali metal group. German chemists Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff discovered rubidium in 1861 by the newly developed method of flame spectroscopy. Its compounds have chemical and electronic applications. It has also been considered for use in a thermoelectric generator using the magnetohydrodynamic principle, where rubidium ions are formed by heat at high temperature and passed through a magnetic field. These conduct electricity and act like an armature of a generator thereby generating an electric current. It is the main component of secondary frequency references to maintain frequency accuracy in cell site transmitters and other electronic transmitting, networking and test equipment. This rubidium standard are often used with GPS to produce a "primary frequency standard" that has greater accuracy and is less expensive than caesium standards. Other potential or current uses of rubidium include a working fluid in vapor turbines, a getter in vacuum tubes and a photocell component.
