[edit] Merge

Quat is a common name for this chemical species, while it is not for quaternion. I suggest merge and redirect, possibly with a {other uses} tag, though I fail to see why it would be neccessary. mastodon 18:39, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I don't see what's wrong with having a dab page. There are other uses of the word, and I added a few. The point is to make it easier for users to find the information they want. If it's a redirect instead of a dab page, the people who are looking for Quaternary ammonium cation will get there a tiny bit faster, but the people looking for Phan Huy Quat will have to look harder. —Keenan Pepper 20:40, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Venta Airwasher

Venta Airwasher http://www.venta-airwasher.com/html/customer_service.html uses QUATERNARY AMMONIUM COMPOUNDS as additive to the water that is evaporated to humidify a room. Is this safe. They say that it does not evaporate so do not breath. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.222.162.29 (talk • contribs) 18:04, 3 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Added term "Quaternary Amine"

The lignite article describes the addition of quaternary amines to lignite and links to this article for an explanation of what quaternary amine means.
