   Nylon 66 (loosely written nylon 6-6, nylon 6/6, nylon 6,6, or nylon 6:6) is a type of polyamide or nylon. It, and nylon 6 , are the two most common for textile and plastic industries. Nylon 66 is made of two monomers each containing 6 carbon atoms, hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid , which give nylon 66 its name. [ 1 ]

3. Acrylic fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_fiber

   The polymer is formed by free-radical polymerization in aqueous suspension. The fiber is produced by dissolving the polymer in a solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) or aqueous sodium thiocyanate, metering it through a multi-hole spinneret and coagulating the resultant filaments in an aqueous solution of the same solvent (wet spinning) or evaporating the solvent in a stream of heated ...

4. Nylon 6 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_6

   Nylon 6 or polycaprolactam is a polymer, in particular semicrystalline polyamide. Unlike most other nylons , nylon 6 is not a condensation polymer , but instead is formed by ring-opening polymerization ; this makes it a special case in the comparison between condensation and addition polymers .

5. Acrylic paint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_paint

   Acrylic paint can be removed from nonporous plastic surfaces such as miniatures or models using cleaning products such as Dettol (containing chloroxylenol 4.8% v/w). [22] An acrylic sizing should be used to prime canvas in preparation for painting with acrylic paints, to prevent Support Induced Discoloration (SID).

6. Canvas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canvas

   Splined canvas can be restretched by adjusting the spline. Stapled canvases stay stretched tighter over a longer period of time, but are more difficult to re-stretch when the need arises. Canvas boards are made of canvas stretched over and glued to a cardboard backing, and sealed on the backside. The canvas is typically linen primed for a ...

7. Nylon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon

   Nylon is a family of synthetic polymers characterized by amide linkages, typically connecting aliphatic or semi-aromatic groups.. Nylons are generally white or colorless [1] [failed verification] [2] [failed verification] and possess a soft texture, with some varieties exhibiting a silk-like appearance.

8. Paintbrush - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paintbrush

   Flat: for spreading paint quickly and evenly over a surface. They will have longer hairs than their Bright counterpart. Bright: shorter than flats. Flat brushes with short stiff bristles, good for driving paint into the weave of a canvas in thinner paint applications, as well as thicker painting styles like impasto work.

9. Support (art) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Support_(art)

   The oldest known use of fabrics as a painting support dates back to the Dynasty XII in Egypt (2000 BC).The continuous use can be traced in both Europe and Asia. In Medieval Europe fabrics was overtaken by the wood panels for church use; Renaissance, with its wider spread of paintings, saw wide use of canvas, occasionally glued to the wood, a practice that originated in the Ancient Egypt, but ...
