Hey guys,

I'm doing some research regarding the formation of phosphine in the case of a heap of metal-phoshide reacts with humidy (air) (e.g. broken container on a production site)
therefore I need to know the amount of phosphine that will be produced, maybe depending on humidy (good), air movement etc.
--> rate of formation in function of time
or something like that

hope you can help out
some quotable literature would be awsome!

Which phosphine? And this probably smells to high heaven

[engineer18]

aluminum- or magnesium phosphide
respectively how their formation rates differ

it's a question in our colloquium. maybe the approach is more important than specific numbers.

thats what i told the MiB this morning
