Incendiary bombs were used extensively in World War II as an effective bombing weapon, often in a conjunction with high-explosive bombs. Probably the most famous incendiary attacks are the bombing of Dresden and the bombing of Tokyo on 10 March 1945. Many different configurations of incendiary bombs and a wide range of filling materials such as isobutyl methacrylate (IM) polymer, napalm, and similar jellied-petroleum formulas were used, many of them developed by the US Chemical Warfare Service. Different methods of delivery, e.g. small
Naphthenic acid to oil refinery equipment; the phenomenon of "naphthenic acid corrosion" (NAC) has therefore been well researched. Crude oils with a high content of naphthenic acids are often referred to as high total acid number (TAN) crude oils or high acid crude oil (HAC). Naphthenic acids are the major contaminant in water produced from the extraction of oil from Athabasca oil sands (AOS). Naphthenic acids have both acute and chronic toxicity to fish and other organisms. In their oft-cited article published in "Toxicological Sciences" Rogers et al. stated that "naphthenic acids are the most significant environmental contaminants resulting from petroleum extraction
