Silvering glass

Engineering rework is possible with eutectic and solder materials, but impossible with silver—glass. This constraint severely limits the usefulness of the material. Tables 4 and 5 give the electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties for various adhesives. 

Most electroless silver appHcations are for silvering glass or metallizing record masters. Mirror production is the principal usage for electroless silver. The glass support is cleaned, catalyzed using a two-step catalyst, and coated on one side with an opaque silver film (46). Silver-plated nylon cloth is used as a bacteriostatic wound dressing. A tiny current appHed to the cloth causes slow silver dissolution. The silver acts as a bactericide (47). 

Chloride can be determined in AOS by potentiometric titration of a sample with silver nitrate after acidification with nitric acid. A silver/glass electrode system is used.

Figure 11.1a shows a scheme of a widely used reaction vessel for isoperibol titration calorimetry [211]. It consists of a silvered glass Dewar A, which can be adjusted to a lid B supporting a stirrer C, a resistance D for electrical calibration, a thermistor E for temperature measurement, and a Teflon tube F for titrant delivery. The assembled Dewar and lid set-up is immersed in a constant... 

Silver(I) chloride Ag + CP —> AgCl. Used in photographic films, to coat and silver glass, as an antiseptic, and to absorb infrared light in lenses. 

The state-of-the-art mirror system now in use is a glass second-surface silver mirror backed with copper and paint, as shown in Fig. 2. For this system, the characterization and study of the glass/silver, silver/copper, and copper/paint interfaces before and after various stages of use are clearly required to understand the multilayer mirror stack. The methods of characterization outlined in Sec. 2.4 of Ref. 3, especially those of ISS, XPS, AES, and SIMS, are clearly applicable to this problem. In ter facial degradation reactions may begin at the silver/glass interface...

Figure 7.8 (A) Myoglobin immunoassay (B) Fluorescence emission spectra of Alexa-647 for the myoglobin inummpassay on SiFs-deposited glass substrates after low power microwave heating and with no microwave heating. These results were obtained on silvered glass microscope slides. Adapted from reference 45.

The diemiluminescence emission spectra frexn between tiie silvered glass and glass plates are shown in figure 15.2 top. The emission from the silvered portion of the slide was spatially averaged to be about 4-S times greater than the glass control...

A supposed slip between the liquid and the solid wall, reported by Piotrowsld, was found by Whetham to be non-existent he found the same results with glass and silvered glass. 

This salt crystallizes in thick columns with four molecules of water. Its chief use is as a reducing agent. It reduces an ammoniacal silver solution and in this way is used in silvering glass. It is also used as a constituent of Fehling s solution, (p. 332), which is an alkaline copper solution reduced by certain sugars. It acts as a purgative in Seidlitz powders which consist of sodium-potassium tartrate, sodium acid carbonate and free tartaric acid. 

The reverse of any spontaneous change is nonspontaneous, because if it did occur, the universe would tend toward a state of greater order. This is contrary to our experience. We would be very surprised if we dropped some pieces of silvered glass on the floor and a mirror spontaneously assembled. A truck cannot be driven along the street, even in reverse gear, so that it sucks up CO2, water vapor, and other substances and produces fuel and oxygen.
