  CR gas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CR gas or dibenzoxazepine, chemically dibenz[b,f][1,4]oxazepine, is an incapacitating agent and a lachrymatory agent.
CR was developed by the British Ministry of Defence as a riot control agent in the late 50's and early 60's.
CR is usually presented as a microparticulate solid, in the form of suspension in a propylene glycol based liquid.

Second, gas shells could be delivered without warning, especially the clear, nearly odorless phosgene — there are numerous accounts of gas shells, landing with a "plop" rather than exploding, being initially dismissed as dud high explosive or shrapnel shells, giving the gas time to work before the soldiers were alerted and took precautions.
I am strongly in favour of using poison gas against uncivilised tribes." [1] Opposition to the use of gas and technical difficulties may have prevented the gas from being used in Mesopotamia (historians are currently divided on the issue)[2].
Technically, the employment of tear gas by Argentinian forces during the 1982 invasion of the Falkland Islands constitutes chemical warfare.

It was developed into a secret weapon at Nilo Park, Ohio and given the name "the new G-34" to confuse its development with mustard gas.
It was replaced by the mustard gas variant HT (a 60:40 mixture of sulfur mustard and O Mustard), and declared obsolete in the 1950s.

The Cr inclusive-as (the term "gas"as used herein includes vapor (s), and vice versa) is introduced into the chamber, and a plasma is struck.
The biasing of the conductive layer on the substrate causes ions, including Cr ions in the chamber to be drawn to the substrate and coat the same thereby forming the Cr inclusive layer thereon.
A plasma is thereby generated in the chamber, due to the presence of the gas and the biased coated substrate (s).

New to the British Army at the time, CR gas is a weapon of the last resort, and one which the British government refuses, to this day, to admit that it has ever used.
It was widely reported at the time that the British Army had used the new experimental CR gas on the prisoners, and according to those who had suffered its consequences - both loyalists and republicans - it was something that they had never experienced before.
CR refers to the chemical agent Dibenzoxazepine and is ten times higher to the human sensitivity than CS Gas.

The extent of republican planning was such that they had already made their own respirators to combat the CS gas which they were sure the British army would use against them once the fighting began.
Although the republicans had been prepared for the effects of CS gas they had not prepared for the use of what they believe to be CR gas or Dibenzoxa-zepine, which is thought to be 10 times stronger than its CS counterpart.
But Kevin Carson said it is the effects of the CR gas which continues to cause controversy.

Suspicion has recently fallen on the illegal CR gas which the British army had in its arsenal at the time, while the effects that those who survived the Moscow incident have described are similar to those suffered by republicans.
Long time CR gas campaigner Jim McCann, who was among the republican prisoners gassed by the British Army in October 16, 1974, says that between 500 and 600 prisoners were badly affected by the CR gas attack.
“As one of the hundreds of men subjected to CR gas on that mild autumn day on a football pitch of some 15 acres in Long Kesh, I can confirm that CR gas is devastatingly effective,” he said.

 'ONGC to net Rs 1,822 cr from gas price hike'
State-run Oil and Natural Gas Corporation will see its pre-tax profit growing by over Rs 1,822 crore (Rs 18.22 billion) on a 12 per cent increase in natural gas prices as recommended by the group of ministers.
With the gas pool account, which subsidises supplies to the north-east, being limited to Rs 100 crore (Rs 1 billion), it would present ONGC a net cost saving of Rs 150 crore (Rs 1.50 bilion), ICRA said.
The rise in natural gas price would result in a 10 per cent jump in variable cost of power generation while for fertiliser units, it would impact the manufacturing cost by Rs 255 per tonne of urea.

The second blowout at the Tengratila gas field damaged about two billion cubic feet (bcf) gas worth around Tk 26 crore because of inept drilling operation by a foreign firm, says the latest enquiry committee report.
The committee observed that the gas of the sun-surface level of the main reservoir was not damaged and the field has a recoverable reserve of 447 bcf gas.
He, however, said the damages were estimated keeping it in mind that the drilling for a relief well will be completed by October 15 and the gas leakage will be sealed by this time.

Work from the National Institute of Standards and Technology was outlined using schlieren optical techniques to study supersonic gas flows in both gas atomization and thermal-spray processes (Video 5b).
This side-by-side comparison illustrates the effect of atomization gas (N2) supply pressure on the atomization spray from a cylindrical jet nozzle, termed HPGA-I, with 30 discrete jets and a 14° apex angle between jets (7° off the central nozzle axis).
Size analysis of the resulting powders showed that elevated pressure (producing an estimated gas velocity increase from Mach 2.5 to Mach 3.5) resulted in a reduction of nearly 10 µm in the mean particle size.
