Brilliant surface

HEOH. — Fer, French Eisen, Gorman Ferrumt Latin.—IroQ is a metal of a bluish-gray color, hut acquiring a brilliant surface by polishing its fracture is fibrous, and it is the hardest and toughest of all the ductile metals it cannot be hammered into very thin plates, but may bo rolled into thin sheets, and drawn into very fine wire. 

The number of varnish coatings applied varies, but five is the ordinary limit, the drying being effected after each in the chamber intended for the purpose, the temperature of which is kept at 160° and under. In this way a brilliant surface is given, and the leather has the property of resisting strains and of bending without the least crack or any injury to the even and perfect surface of the varnish. 

Silicon liquids (a solution of silicon-organic rubber in gasoline) and polyethylene terephthalate film are used to prevent sticking of finished articles to forms. It is worth noting that polyester film is most effective. With its application, RubCon articles are easily removed from the form and have a brilliant surface.

If a few drops of phosphorized ether be poured on to a piece of lump sugar and the sugar be dropped into a glass of warm water, the surface of the water will become luminous and, if it be blown upon, beautiful and brilliant surface undulations will be pn uced.

Brief description of new possibilities for surface investigations with higlily brilliant synchrotron x-ray sources. 

Basic dyestuffs are usually used for dyeing of unbleached pulp in mechanical pulp such as wrapping paper, kraft paper, box board, news, and other inexpensive packaging papers. Their strong and brilliant shades also make them suitable for calendar staining and surface coloring where lightfastness is not critical. 

By tradition, electrochemistry has been considered a branch of physical chemistry devoted to macroscopic models and theories. We measure macroscopic currents, electrodic potentials, consumed charges, conductivities, admittance, etc. All of these take place on a macroscopic scale and are the result of multiple molecular, atomic, or ionic events taking place at the electrode/electrolyte interface. Great efforts are being made by electrochemists to show that in a century where the most brilliant star of physical chemistry has been quantum chemistry, electrodes can be studied at an atomic level and elemental electron transfers measured.1 The problem is that elemental electrochemical steps and their kinetics and structural consequences cannot be extrapolated to macroscopic and industrial events without including the structure of the surface electrode. 

The effect of complex formation on the solubility of a solid can be observed in the home. Silver dinnerware eventually becomes discolored by an unsightly black tarnish of Ag2 S, formed from the reaction of the silver surface with small amounts of H2 S present in the atmosphere. Silver sulfide is highly insoluble in water. Commercial silver polishes contain ligands that form strong soluble complexes with Ag ions. If a tarnished serving pan is rubbed with a polish, the black tarnish dissolves, returning the silver to its brilliant shine. 

Pettinger et al. observed a TERS spectrum of monolayer-thick brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) adsorbed on a smooth Au film surface by using a Ag tip, while no STM image of the adsorbed surface was shovm [23]. The Raman intensity increased when the tip was in the tunneling position, meaning that the tip-surface distance was around 1 nm. They calculated the field enhancement factor by the method described by... 

Negri plunged her all those years ago. Admirably suited to the alchemical talents of Christopher Whyte, The Cloud Machinery reads like a tale by Hoffmann set to music by Mozart. Its brilliant an elegant surface cannot conceal disturbing pyschological undertones which make this a thoroughly contemporary novel... 

Franklin mentioned Pliny s account of fisherman pouring oil on troubled waters in ancient times, a practice that survives to the present. (Franklin s experiment was reenacted by the author at the pond on Clapham Common with a teaspoon of olive oil. The spreading oil covered a surface not larger than that of a beach towel-it appears that technique and/or choice of oil is important. The olive oil quickly spread out in circular patterns of brilliant prismatic colors, but then dissolved from sight. Indeed, the pond itself has shrunken considerably over the intervening 230 years.)... 

Accidental contact of the molten alloy (26% Al) with a wet rusty iron surface caused violent explosions with brilliant light emission. Initial evolution of steam, causing fine dispersion of the alloy, then interaction of the fine metals with rust in a thermite reaction, were postulated as likely stages. Direct interaction of the magnesium (74%) with steam may also have been involved. 

After completion of the reaction, ultrasonic irradiation for an unnecessarily long period causes decomposition of the allyltributyltin. The end of the reaction can be determined by a faint turbidity in the solution and by darkening of the brilliant Mg surface. 

Pigment Red 8 affords clean, bluish shades of red. It is primarily used in the printing ink industry. P.R.8 exhibits high tinctorial strength and produces brilliant prints. Commercially available types with specific surface areas between about 50 and 60 m2/g afford transparent prints. P.R.8 is used in prints which require no particular solvent resistance. However, the pigment tolerates solvents much better than the yellower P.R.7 in this respect, P.R.8 matches the yellower, but more light-fast P.R.5. The prints are fast to soap but not entirely stable to butter and paraffin. P.R.8 is sensitive to clear lacquers coatings and to sterilization. It tolerates exposure to 140°C for 30 minutes.

Shown here are two patterns of water infiltration, in two different dry and wet soils, following infiltration of 40 mm of water containing Brilliant Blue FCF as a dye applied to the ground surface (Flury et al., 1994).
