   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel-toe_boot

   A pair of well-worn steel-toe shoes A pair of ISO 20345:2004 compliant S3 safety boots. A steel-toe boot (also known as a safety boot, steel-capped boot, steel toecaps or safety shoe) is a durable boot or shoe that has a protective reinforcement in the toe which protects the foot from falling objects or compression. Safety shoes are effective ...

3. Carbon monoxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_monoxide

   Carbon monoxide (chemical formula CO) is a poisonous, flammable gas that is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and slightly less dense than air. Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom connected by a triple bond. It is the simplest carbon oxide. In coordination complexes, the carbon monoxide ligand is called carbonyl. It is ...

   Swimfins, swim fins, diving fins, or flippers are finlike accessories worn on the feet, legs or hands [1] and made from rubber, plastic, carbon fiber or combinations of these materials, to aid movement through the water in water sports activities such as swimming, bodyboarding, bodysurfing, float-tube fishing, kneeboarding, riverboarding, scuba diving, snorkeling, spearfishing, underwater ...

5. Carburizing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carburizing

   Carburizing, or carburising, is a heat treatment process in which iron or steel absorbs carbon while the metal is heated in the presence of a carbon-bearing material, such as charcoal or carbon monoxide. The intent is to make the metal harder and more wear resistant. [1]

6. Ceramic matrix composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_matrix_composite

   The most significant corrosion of carbon occurs in the presence of oxygen above about 500 °C (932 °F). It burns to form carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide. It also oxidizes in strong oxidizing agents like concentrated nitric acid. In molten metals, it dissolves and forms metal carbides. Carbon fibers do not differ from carbon in their ...

7. Reinforced carbon–carbon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinforced_carbon–carbon

   The Dunlop carbon brakes as used on the Concorde airliner. The brake disc of this Ferrari race car's braking system is made from carbon fibre-reinforced silicon carbide which is a CMC rather than a C/C. Carbon fibre-reinforced silicon carbide (C/SiC) is a development of pure carbon–carbon that uses silicon carbide with carbon fibre.
