1. Take regular breaks. Just like we humans need regular breaks to stretch our legs and go to the bathroom, so too do our canine companions. If you’re going on a long road trip with your dog ...
Researchers have tested fly ash, limestone sludge, hydraulic lime and dextrin and its effects on the plaster.The addition of limestone sludge and hydraulic lime resulted in a reduced shrinkage when drying, which helps prevent cracks and improve adhesion to application surface. Fly ash and dextrin both improved the mechanical strength of the ...
A vet visit is important to help determine whether motion sickness may be contributing to your dog’s fear of the car. Dogs with motion sickness typically drool, vomit, lip their licks, swallow ...
The plaster is not pure plaster of Paris, but rather has additives to improve green strength, dry strength, permeability, and castability.For instance, talc or magnesium oxide are added to prevent cracking and reduce setting time; lime and cement limit expansion during baking; glass fibers increase strength; sand can be used as a filler.

Desiccation cracks in sludge. Centripetal desiccation cracks in the Lower Jurassic Moenave Formation at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm, southwestern Utah. A dinosaur footprint is at center. Desiccation is the state of extreme dryness, or the process of extreme drying.
The anti-corrosion layer protects car metals from environmental harm. Automotive anti-scratch coatings are becoming stronger (from 10 newtons to 15 newtons of protection) to counter scratch resistance lost due to the industry shift from steel to lightweight, but low-scratch resistant plastics and aluminium .
1. Get Rid of Scratches First. Buffing your car won't do a thing until the scratches are taken care of. Scratch repair kits are easy enough to come by.
Environmental Stress Cracking (ESC) is one of the most common causes of unexpected brittle failure of thermoplastic (especially amorphous) polymers known at present. According to ASTM D883, stress cracking is defined as "an external or internal crack in a plastic caused by tensile stresses less than its short-term mechanical strength".
