Air spraying

The fluid dehvery in an air-spray system can be pressure or suction fed. In a pressure-fed system, the fluid is brought to the atomizer under positive pressure generated with an external pump, a gas pressure over the coating material in a tank, or an elevation head. In a suction system, the annular flow of air around the fluid tip generates sufficient vacuum to aspirate the coating material from a container through a fluid tube and into the air stream. In this case, the paint supply is normally located in a small cup attached to the spray device to keep the elevation differential and frictional pressure drop in the fluid-supply tube small. 

The principal factors affecting transfer efficiency are the size and shape of the object, the type of apphcation equipment, the air pressure to the spray gun, and the distance of the spray gun from the object. The transfer efficiency becomes lower as the object becomes smaller or more complex. The transfer efficiency increases when the spray gun is brought closer to the object and when the atomizing pressure is reduced. The transfer efficiency of different types of apphcation equipment in descending relative order is manual > electrostatic spray > airless spray > conventional atomized air spray.

Alkylating agents The chromatograms are freed from mobile phase, then sprayed homogeneously with spray solution I, dried briefly in a stream of cold air, sprayed homogeneously with spray solution II and then heated to 105 —140 °C for 10 — 25 min. After coohng to room temperature they are then sprayed with spray solution III [9,10]. 

Air assisted airless spray This concept is a combination of air spray and airless methods. Paint can be atomised with full spray patterns at low pressures. Turbulence is reduced significantly and overspray is minimised. 

Note 5 In calculating paint requirements up to 50% more than the theoretical dry film weight requirement should be allowed to cover thick coatings, wastage, repairs, losses (typically 30% for air spray 15% airless spray 10% electrostatic spray 5% roller or brush) etc. Manufacturers should be asked to quote percentage volume solids in their paint to facilitate calculations.

Spray-up Popular system with reinforced plastic production. An air spray gun includes a roller cutter that chops usually glass fiber rovings to a controlled short length before being blown in a random pattern (manually or automatically) onto a surface of the mold simultaneously the gun sprays catalyzed TS polyester plastic. The chopped fibers are plastic coated as they exit the gun s nozzle. The resulting, rather fluffy, RP mass is consolidated with serrated rollers to squeeze out air and reduce or eliminate voids. A closed mold... 

The chromatograms are dried in a stream of warm air, sprayed homogeneously with spray solution 1, dried briefly in a stream of hot air, then sprayed lightly with spray solution 2 and finally dried in a stream of warm air. In the case of P-blockers this is followed with a further hght spray with spray solution 1 [5]. 

The cities of Berkeley, Long Beach, San Jose, Glendale, Pasadena, and Sacramento follow the state regulations. California apparently permits the use of DDT and presumably other residuals under carefully controlled conditions, as evidenced by the existence of a California State Department of Public Health poster entitled Use of DDT in Food Establishments. This poster suggests that DDT be employed under carefully controlled conditions, which include the use of a nonmisting compressed air spray, limited to wetting surfaces remote from food supplies, utensils, and open flames under adequate ventilation. The oil solutions must not be allowed to remain in contact with the skin. 

Air spraying is the most widely used method for enamel application. In this process, the enamel is atomized and propelled by air onto the base metal to form an enamel coating. Overspraying is a common problem with this technique, because the atomized particles may not adhere to the part. Spray booths to collect this oversprayed enamel are necessary. A modification of this technique is... 

Spray and mists releases generally behave like a gas or vapor release. The fuel is highly atomized and mixed with air. Sprays or mists can easily be ignited, even below the flash point temperature of the material involved, since mixing of the fuel with the air has already occurred.

Procedure Apply separately to the silica gel G coated plates 5 pi of each of sols (1), (2), (3), (4) and (5) and dry the TLC plates in a current of air for 15 minutes before commencing development. Carry out the development using the above mentioned mobile-phase as usual. After removal of the plate, allow it to dry in air, spray with ninhydrin solution and heat at 100° to 105 °C for 15 minutes. 

Refrigerators, air conditioners and air sprays make our lives comfortable. Unfortunately, they are dangerous if they reach the upper layers of the air. 

CFCs or chlorofluorocarbons are used in air conditioners, refrigerators and air sprays as a coolant. This gaseous compound when released into the atmosphere is carried to the upper layers or the stratosphere of the atmosphere by air currents. Here, they interact with ozone in an irreversible manner. It stays in the atmosphere for a number of years causing great damage. As it depletes the ozone layer, we are exposed to the dangerous ultraviolet rays. 

Ozone depletion is a major problem. While it may not be possible to close the ozone holes , we can certainly minimize further damage. An alternative to CFC must be used in refrigerators, air conditioners, air sprays.
