Hydrogen peroxide. Very effective on blood stains and stains on bathroom tile and grout excellent for bleaching out stains on white clothes (mix 1 cup hydrogen peroxide with 1 tablespoon ammonia for a great liquid stain-fighter).

If there are hydrocarbons present in the formation that is being drilled, they will show in the cuttings as oil stains, and in the mud as traces of oil or gas. The gas in the mud is continuously monitored by means of a gas detector. This is often a relatively simple device detecting the total combustible gas content. The detector can be supplemented by a gas chromatograph, which analyses the composition of the gas. 

Apart from the sheer complexity of the static stmctures of biomolecules, they are also rather labile. On the one hand this means that especial consideration must be given to the fact (for example in electron microscopy) that samples have to be dried, possibly stained, and then measured in high vacuum, which may introduce artifacts into the observed images [5]. On the other, apart from the vexing question of whether a protein in a crystal has the same stmcture as one freely diffusing in solution, the static stmcture resulting from an x-ray diffraction experiment gives few clues to the molecular motions on which operation of an enzyme depends [6]. 

In ammoniacal solution (in which the ion [AgfNHjlj]" is formed) it is readily reduced to silver (see above) by many organic compounds. The use of silver nitrate for marking clothes depends on its reduction by the material to black silver. The reduction also occurs even when the neutral solution comes in contact with the skin, and a black stain is left. Thus solid silver nitrate rubbed on the skin leaves a black deposit and so is used in surgery as a mild caustic—hence the old name for silver nitrate of lunar caustic.

Benzaldehyde, C HjCHO, and salicylaldehyde, HOC3H4CHO, are liquids insoluble in water. Benzaldehyde has a characteristic odour of bitter almonds salicylaldehyde has a faint but also characteristic odour, resembling that of phenol. Salicylaldehyde stains the skin yellow. 

Schiff s test. Dissolve about o i g. of uric acid in NsjCOj solution and pour some of this solution on to a filter-paper which has been moistened with AgNO solution a black stain of metallic silver results. 

Sulphur. Moisten the centre of a filter paper with sodium plumbite solution. Add about 10 ml. of dilute hydrochloric acid to the residue in the dish and immediately cover it with the prepared filter paper. If zinc sulphide is present in the residue, a dark brown stain, visible on the upper surface of the paper, will be obtained frequently the presence of hydrogen sulphide can also be detected by its odour. 

The tetroxide has been used to detect fingerprints and to stain fatty tissue for miscroscope slides. The metal is almost entirely used to produce very hard alloys, with other metals of the platinum group, for fountain pen tips, instrument pivots, phonograph needles, and electrical contacts. 

Easy removal during the development process in order to avoid residual and unwanted color stain. 

It is used only as a film, and it has good resistance to abrasion and resists staining. It also has outstanding weathering resistance and maintains useful properties from — 100 to 150°C. 

The rather special status of five- and six-membered rings is already familiar from organic chemistry. Because of the general stability associated with rings of this size, both reactions (5.EE) and (5.FF) are expected to be less favored when the ring compounds have this size, that is, when 1 = 5 or 6. To see the basis for this conclusion, let us consider some of the evidence for stain in cyclic compounds. 

The stacks are moved and again separated into individual panels where they pass a grading station. Those panels requiring touch-up or repair move to the repair stations. Panels then move to the trim saws where edges are trimmed to the final desired size, normally 1220 x 2440 mm (4x8 ft.). Panels are then touch-sanded to final thickness, and pre-finished as desired. Those panels with high quaUty decorative veneer faces are usually filled, stained to the desired tone, and finished with a clear finish. 

Visual and Manual Tests. Synthetic fibers are generally mixed with other fibers to achieve a balance of properties. Acryhc staple may be blended with wool, cotton, polyester, rayon, and other synthetic fibers. Therefore, as a preliminary step, the yam or fabric must be separated into its constituent fibers. This immediately estabUshes whether the fiber is a continuous filament or staple product. Staple length, brightness, and breaking strength wet and dry are all usehil tests that can be done in a cursory examination. A more critical identification can be made by a set of simple manual procedures based on burning, staining, solubiUty, density deterrnination, and microscopical examination. 

General schemes for the identification of natural and synthetic fibers have been estabhshed by the Textile Institute and by the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (8). A comprehensive treatment of burning, solvent, staining, microscopy, and density techniques has been given (9) and a general discussion of procedures for identifyiag synthetic fibers has been presented (10). 

Olefin fibers, also called polyolefin fibers, are defined as manufactured fibers in which the fiber-forming substance is a synthetic polymer of at least 85 wt % ethylene, propjiene, or other olefin units (1). Several olefin polymers are capable of forming fibers, but only polypropylene [9003-07-0] (PP) and, to a much lesser extent, polyethylene [9002-88-4] (PE) are of practical importance. Olefin polymers are hydrophobic and resistant to most solvents. These properties impart resistance to staining, but cause the polymers to be essentially undyeable in an unmodified form. 

Physical Properties. Table 1 (2) shows that olefin fibers differ from other synthetic fibers in two important respects (/) olefin fibers have very low moisture absorption and thus excellent stain resistance and almost equal wet and dry properties, and (2) the low density of olefin fibers allows a much lighter weight product at a specified size or coverage. Thus one kilogram of polypropylene fiber can produce a fabric, carpet, etc, with much more fiber per unit area than a kilogram of most other fibers. 

Mechanical Properties. The stain resistance of paints is directly related to their porosity. Therefore fillers that help to reduce porosity, ie, those with low surface areas, wide size distribution, and laminar shapes, contribute to stain resistance. 

Conserva.tlon, The objectives ia the treatment of stone objects are primarily cleaning, stabilization, consoHdation, repair, and restoration (132—135). Cleaning can vary from a light dusting to the removal of stubborn grime and stains with solvents and detergents. The latter can be appHed usiag a poultice method to iacrease the efficiency with which the extraneous material is removed from below the surface of the stone. 

Ammonium bifluoride is used as a sour or neutralizer for alkalies in commercial laundries and textile plants. Treatment also removes iron stain by forming colorless ammonium iron fluorides that are readily rinsed from the fabric (17). 

Sodium bifluoride, by itself or ia conjunction with other materials, is a good laundry sour because, ia the concentrations used, it does not create a pH below 4.0 and thus causes no damage to textile fibers, although it removes iron stains. Leather (qv) bleaching and cleaning of stone and brick building faces are other uses for this material (3).
