L'AEROFOTOTECA NAZIONALE RACCONTA....Come nasce un'industria di guerra strategica? Il caso della SLOI di Trento

Some time ago I came across a "singular story" and I tried to analyze it using indicators, I hope sufficiently neutral, to compare the congruity of the events compared to the story told by the SLOI of Trento, in which from 1939 to July 1978 Lead-Tetra–Etyle was produced -Etile (TEL, Tetra...

Description
Summary:Some time ago I came across a "singular story" and I tried to analyze it using indicators, I hope sufficiently neutral, to compare the congruity of the events compared to the story told by the SLOI of Trento, in which from 1939 to July 1978 Lead-Tetra–Etyle was produced -Etile (TEL, TetraEthyl Lead) as antiknock, used in fuels for military aviation before and for civil use after the end of the second world war. TEL, once mixed with a halogenated derivative of ethylene ('scavenger' required to ensure the mechanical integrity of the engine), formed the compound known as Ethyl-Fluid. A very small percentage of TEL present in the fuel guaranteed its antiknock activity during combustion in the engine cylinder, while the scavenger avoided the precipitation of the Lead as oxide, keeping it in an aeriform form such as Lead halide which was eliminated with the exhaust gases.
