Stovers,
Galvanized metal in stoves gets mentioned occasionally. Do we have a
clear answer about what is the temperature at which the zinc makes
poisonous gases (such as when welding) versus making zinc oxide (the
white stuff that you can by in a tube to put on your nose to prevent
sunburn)? Is it bad if the temperature is at 400 C to 700 C? Or does
it need to get much higher?
