  2. Chromated copper arsenate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromated_copper_arsenate

    Chromated copper arsenate (CCA) is a wood preservative containing compounds of chromium, copper, and arsenic, in various proportions. It is used to impregnate timber and other wood products, especially those intended for outdoor use, in order to protect them from attack by microbes and insects. Like other copper-based wood preservatives, it ...

  3. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    The heating value (or energy value or calorific value) of a substance, usually a fuel or food (see food energy), is the amount of heat released during the combustion of a specified amount of it. The calorific value is the total energy released as heat when a substance undergoes complete combustion with oxygen under standard conditions .

  4. Wigner effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigner_effect

    Notably, the large energy release observed at 200–250 °C has been described in terms of a metastable interstitial-vacancy pair. [7] The interstitial atom becomes trapped on the lip of the vacancy, and there is a barrier for it to recombine to give perfect graphite.

  5. J-B Weld - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-B_Weld

    J-B Weld is a two-part epoxy adhesive (or filler) that can withstand high-temperature environments. J-B Weld can be used to bond surfaces made from metal, porcelain, ceramic, glass, marble, PVC, ABS, concrete, fiberglass, wood, fabric, or paper. [7] [8] Alcohol should be avoided when cleaning surfaces, as it can degrade the bond. [9]

  6. J-integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-integral

    The J-integral represents a way to calculate the strain energy release rate, or work per unit fracture surface area, in a material. [1] The theoretical concept of J-integral was developed in 1967 by G. P. Cherepanov [2] and independently in 1968 by James R. Rice, [3] who showed that an energetic contour path integral (called J) was independent of the path around a crack.

  7. Conversion coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_coating

    A conversion coating is a chemical or electro-chemical treatment applied to manufactured parts that superficially converts the material into a thin adhering coating of an insoluble compound.

  8. Antistatic agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antistatic_agent

    An antistatic agent is a compound used for treatment of materials or their surfaces in order to reduce or eliminate buildup of static electricity.Static charge may be generated by the triboelectric effect [1] or by a non-contact process using a high voltage power source.

  9. Fence (woodworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fence_(woodworking)

    The most common fence on a table saw is a rip fence, and is provided as standard with any new table saw. The rip fence is parallel to the saw blade and can be adjusted to different distances from the blade to set the size of the final cut. The fence remains static, while the workpiece is guided along the fence. [5]
