Description

In this eye-opening episode of The Hazmat Files, we dive into the volatile world of monomers and polymerization—chemical processes that can escalate quickly in emergency scenarios. Our guests break down how these reactive substances behave, the warning signs of polymerization, and what first responders need to know to approach a scene safely.
