  2. Plasma propulsion engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_propulsion_engine

    A plasma propulsion engine is a type of electric propulsion that generates thrust from a quasi-neutral plasma. This is in contrast with ion thruster engines, which generate thrust through extracting an ion current from the plasma source, which is then accelerated to high velocities using grids/ anodes .

  3. Neogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neogen

    Neogen Corporation is an international food safety company that provides test kits and relevant products to detect dangerous substances in food. The company was founded in 1982 and is based in Lansing, Michigan . [ 1 ]

  4. Liquid nitrogen engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_nitrogen_engine

    Although the liquid nitrogen is colder than the ambient temperature, the liquid nitrogen engine is nevertheless an example of a heat engine.A heat engine runs by extracting thermal energy from the temperature difference between a hot and a cold reservoir; in the case of the liquid nitrogen engine, the "hot" reservoir is the air in the ambient ("room temperature") surroundings, which is used to ...

  5. Nitriding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitriding

    In gas nitriding the donor is a nitrogen-rich gas, usually ammonia (NH 3), which is why it is sometimes known as ammonia nitriding. [2] When ammonia comes into contact with the heated work piece it dissociates into nitrogen and hydrogen. The nitrogen then diffuses onto the surface of the material creating a nitride layer.

  6. Plasma-activated bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma-activated_bonding

    The plasma ignites in the RIE-reactor (shown in figure "Scheme of a plasma reactor for low pressure plasma activated bonding"). The maximal bond strength is achieved with nitrogen and oxygen as process gases and is sufficiently high with a homogeneous dispersion over the wafers after annealing at 250 °C. The bond energy is characterized > 200 ...

  7. Plasma transferred wire arc thermal spraying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_transferred_wire...

    Plasma transferred wire arc (PTWA) thermal spraying is a thermal spraying process that deposits a coating on the internal surface of a cylindrical surface, or external surface of any geometry. It is predominantly known for its use in coating the cylinder bores of an internal combustion engine , enabling the construction of aluminium engine ...

  8. Plasma activation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_activation

    Plasma activation (or plasma functionalization) is a method of surface modification employing plasma processing, which improves surface adhesion properties of many materials including metals, glass, ceramics, a broad range of polymers and textiles and even natural materials such as wood and seeds. Plasma functionalization also refers to the ...

  9. Nitrous oxide engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide_engine

    In the context of racing, nitrous oxide is often termed nitrous or NOS.The term NOS is derived from the initials of the company name Nitrous Oxide Systems, Inc. (now a brand of Holley Performance Products) one of the pioneering companies in the development of nitrous oxide injection systems for automotive performance use, and has become a genericized trademark.
