← HistoryWhich risk increased when early Chinese ironworkers produced cast iron cookware using charcoal?
A)Accelerated carbon monoxide poisoning indoors✓
B)Reduced malleability during shaping stages
C)Lowered thermal shock resistance rapidly
D)Increased iron carbide phase segregation
💡 Explanation
Carbon monoxide poisoning risks increased because incomplete combustion leads to increased CO via insufficient oxygen. This imperfect oxidation creates CO, therefore elevated concentrations indoors proved dangerous, rather than metallurgical issues impacting cookware manufacturing directly.
