An explosion occurred at 640 Industrial Drive in Cary on Wednesday afternoon, causing significant damage to a paint manufacturing warehouse. According to the Chicago Tribune, three workers were injured when multiple blasts rocked the facility around 1:15 p.m. The Cary Police Department and fire crews were quickly dispatched to the scene, where they encountered heavy smoke and a second explosion shortly after arriving. Police Chief Steven Casstevens reported that the force of the explosions blew off the front of the two-story brick building and created a hole in the rear. Emergency responders worked for several hours to bring the fire under control, which was finally extinguished by around 5 p.m. A hazardous materials team was also called in due to the presence of flammable substances at the site. Witness Jim Hursh, who runs a nearby business, described hearing the initial blast and then seeing thick smoke coming from the building. He later heard a second explosion and saw emergency vehicles rushing to the scene. One individual with facial burns was seen being treated on-site. Two of the injured employees were taken to Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington, while the third was airlifted to a burn center. Fortunately, no firefighters were hurt during the incident. Local photographer Tyler Tobolt captured images of the aftermath, showing the extent of the damage. His photos, shared on Facebook, revealed the destruction caused by the explosions. Meanwhile, Scott Peterson, another eyewitness, noted that the fire department had to call in additional resources, including hazmat units and a tower ladder, as the situation escalated. The incident led to the evacuation of a two-block area, and authorities remained on high alert due to the potential risk from flammable tanks near the site. The Daily Herald also covered the event, highlighting the ongoing efforts to manage the crisis and ensure public safety. More details and updates are expected as investigations continue.

Low Temperature Scouring and Bleaching

Low temperature scouring agent relates to the pretreatment process of printing and dyeing industry. The invention is scientifically prepared by efficient surface active agent and effective chemical additives, and can complete desizing, boiling and bleaching treatment of cotton and linen, chemical fiber and blended fabric at 45℃ ~ 60℃ for 1 hour, effectively remove the size, cotton seed shell, pigment and impurities on the surface of the fabric, improve the whiteness of the fabric, and almost do not damage the fiber. The invention has the advantages of energy saving, short process flow, improving quality and reducing labor intensity of workers, and has obvious economic and social benefits.
