Dirt

High selective performance of the sensor also enable to detect surface cracks in ferromagnetic and non-magnetic welded connections under rust or dirt layer without prior cleaning. 

All glassware should be scrupulously clean and, for most purposes, dry before being employed in preparative work in the laboratory. It is well to develop the habit of cleaning all glass apparatus immediately after use the nature of the dirt will, in general, be known at the time, and, furthermore, the cleaning process becomes more difficult if the dirty apparatus is allowed to stand for any considerable period, particularly if volatile solvents have evaporated in the meantime. 

The top of the bench should always be kept clean and dry this can easily be done if a wet and a dry rag are kept at hand. Apparatus not immediately required (a) should be kept as far as possible in a cupboard beneath the bench if it must be placed on the bench, it should be arranged in a neat and orderly manner. All apparatus should be washed immediately after use and placed in a position to drain at the first opportunity, the apparatus should be dried. It must be emphasised that as a general rule a deposit of dirt or tar is more easily removed when it is freshly formed a suitable cleaning agent can usually be found while one still remembers the nature of the material or the circumstances attending its formation. It is hardly necessary to add that sohd waste and filter papers must not be thrown into the sink, and that all operations requiring the handhng of unpleasant and noxious materials sliould be carried out in the fume cupboard ( hood ). 

There are a lot of bad conversion recipes for phenol and a few so-so ones. This doesn t matter because phenol is about as cheap and common as dirt. This means that the chemist can experiment with it at her leisure. 

Three important precautions are needed when working with pipets and volumetric flasks. First, the volume delivered by a pipet or contained by a volumetric flask assumes that the glassware is clean. Dirt and grease on the inner glass surface prevents liquids from draining evenly, leaving droplets of the liquid on the container s walls. For a pipet this means that the delivered volume is less than the calibrated volume, whereas drops of liquid above the calibration mark mean that a volumetric flask contains more than its calibrated volume. Commercially available cleaning solutions can be used to clean pipets and volumetric flasks. 

When collecting a sample, for instance, only a small portion of the available material is taken, increasing the likelihood that small-scale inhomogeneities in the sample will affect the repeatability of the analysis. Individual pennies, for example, are expected to show variation from several sources, including the manufacturing process, and the loss of small amounts of metal or the addition of dirt during circulation. These variations are sources of indeterminate error associated with the sampling process. 

Each vehicle generates 500—800 pounds of residue. The aimual U.S. total is about 3.5 million tons or about 1.3% of the municipal soHd waste generated aimuaHy (3). The mixture is too complex to separate and recycle. Depending on the amount of glass, water, metal, and dirt present, the residue... 

Solution Filtration. The polymer solution, free of unacetylated ceUulose, rigid particle contaminants, and dirt, must pass through spinnerets with holes of 30—80 ]lni diameter. Multistage filtration, usuaUy through plate-and-frame filter presses with fabric and paper filter media, removes the extraneous matter before extmsion. Undesirable gelatinous particles, such as the hemiceUulose acetates from ceUulose impurities, tend to be sheared into smaller particles rather than removed. The solution is also aUowed to degas in hoi ding tanks after each state of filtration. 

Gels. Fluorosihcone fluids with vinyl functionahty can be cured using the platinum catalyst addition reactions. The cure can be controlled such that a gel or a soft, clear, jelly-like form is achieved. Gels with low (12% after 7 d) swell in gasoline fuel are useflil (9) to protect electronics or circuitry from dust, dirt, fuels, and solvents in both hot (up to 150°C) and cold (down to —65° C) environments. Apphcations include automotive, aerospace, and electronic industries, where harsh fuel—solvent conditions exist while performance requirements remain high. 

The limitation to disk constmctions with a laser beam reflected at the disk surface is a large drawback, however. This prevents the insensitivity against dust and dirt, which is well known from current optical storage devices with a laser beam reflected after penetration of the transparent substrate. 

Metal Pan Assemblies. These units consist of tiles and panels formed from perforated aluminum or steel with pads of fiber glass or mineral wool inserted into the pans to provide the sound absorption. They are used primarily for ceilings in a similar manner to acoustical tiles and panels. The pads are sometimes sealed in plastic film to prevent absorption of moisture, dirt, and odors. The perforated metal is relatively sound transparent and functions as the finished ceiling and the support for the sound-absorbing material. The perforated metal by itself has no acoustical value. 

Subsequent to processing, an inspection is made for incomplete bonding, inside dirt, and glass quaUty. In the case of windshields, rigid optical standards must be met, and these must be evaluated for the completed windshield. Extensive test requirements are described in the appropriate codes (11,12,15,18—24), and they include light stabiUty, resistance to optical distortion, humidity, boil test, abrasion resistance, and assorted impact tests. 

Chemical Composition. From the point of view of leathermaking, hides consist of four broad classes of proteins coUagen, elastin, albumen, and keratin (3). The fats are triglycerides and mixed esters. The hides as received in a taimery contain water and a curing agent. Salt-cured cattie hides contain 40—50% water and 10—20% ordinary salt, NaCl. Surface dirt is usuaUy about 2—5 wt %. Cattie hides have 5—15% fats depending on the breed and source. The balance of the hide is protein (1). 

The quantity of water is two to three times the weight of the hides. The salt from the cure dissolves in the water and the reverse of the curing takes place. The water is drawn into the hides by osmotic forces. The concentration of the salt solution is about 3-5 g/lOO mL. At this concentration some of the soluble proteins disperse. The soak water removes the salt, some proteins, some loose fat, blood, dirt, and manure. 

The processing of hides and skins into leather results in a large quantity of waste materials (9). The hide in the salt-cured condition contains salt in a crystalline form, water as salt solution, and as hide Hquid components, flesh, blood, manure, and surface dirt from the animal.
