Talk:Accelerant

im going to fix this..
today will be devoted to linking, abstracting, defining, and fixing all to do with this section to further end confusion in its area.. its sad becouse accelerants are very important in chemistry and this section is pitiful.. so i will help.. Roy Stanley (talk) 15:35, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

ok..
ive done alot of dirty work, all the previouse debates on this have been fixed, and there are a few things left to do.. a. some one get some more data bases on vol-accelerants b. some one wright sections on *adhesive accelerants*concrete accelerants*chemical kenetics c. some one check my spelling..

Differrence between catalyst and accelerant?
There should be somekind of comparing... I don't understand any difference. Catalyst is not consumed by the reaction itself, but accelerant is? Then this is worng: "Accelerants are catalysts which..." 195.163.176.146 (talk) 07:30, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Opening lines
I feel that the opening sentence "Accelerants play a major role in chemistry." is not specific enough. We could replace the word "accelerants" with "oxidizers", "reductants", "Lewis acids", "catalysts", "organolithium reagents", "iron ions", etc. and the sentence would be just as valid, so I think it's too general. I don't know accelerants well enough to edit this article, but I feel that it would be more helpful to write, "In chemistry, an accelerant is ________". Nsteinberg (talk) 17:58, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
