  2. Splint (laboratory equipment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splint_(laboratory_equipment)

    The glowing splint test is a test for an oxidising gas, such as oxygen. [4] In this test, a splint is lit, allowed to burn for a few seconds, then blown out by mouth or by shaking. Whilst the ember at the tip is still glowing hot, the splint is introduced to the gas sample that has been trapped in a vessel. [4]

  3. Gas-filled tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-filled_tube

    Hydrogen (and deuterium) can be stored in the tube in the form of a metal hydride, heated with an auxiliary filament; hydrogen by heating such storage element can be used to replenish cleaned-up gas, and even to adjust the pressure as needed for a thyratron operation at a given voltage.

  4. Glow discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_discharge

    The simplest type of glow discharge is a direct-current glow discharge. In its simplest form, it consists of two electrodes in a cell held at low pressure (0.1–10 torr; about 1/10000 to 1/100 of atmospheric pressure).

  5. Voltage-gated proton channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-gated_proton_channel

    Voltage-gated proton channels are ion channels that have the unique property of opening with depolarization, but in a strongly pH-sensitive manner. [1] The result is that these channels open only when the electrochemical gradient is outward, such that their opening will only allow protons to leave cells .

  6. Flame test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_test

    Flame test of a few metal ions A flame test involves introducing a sample of the element or compound to a hot, non-luminous flame and observing the color of the flame that results. [ 4 ] The compound can be made into a paste with concentrated hydrochloric acid, as metal halides , being volatile, give better results. [ 5 ]

  7. Hydrogen sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sensor

    A hydrogen sensor is a gas detector that detects the presence of hydrogen. They contain micro-fabricated point-contact hydrogen sensors and are used to locate hydrogen leaks. They are considered low-cost, compact, durable, and easy to maintain as compared to conventional gas detecting instruments.

  8. Corona discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_discharge

    It represents a local region where the air (or other fluid) has undergone electrical breakdown and become conductive, allowing charge to continuously leak off the conductor into the air. A corona discharge occurs at locations where the strength of the electric field ( potential gradient ) around a conductor exceeds the dielectric strength of ...

  9. Hydrogen embrittlement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_embrittlement

    ASTM F1940 is the Standard Test Method for Process Control Verification to Prevent Hydrogen Embrittlement in Plated or Coated Fasteners. [39] While the title now explicitly includes the word fasteners, F1940 was not originally intended for these purposes.
