  2. Microfoam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microfoam

    When using a steam wand, the volume and type of foam is controlled by the barista during the steaming process, [1] and loosely follows these steps: Air is introduced from the steam wand by immersing only the tip of the wand in the milk. This process is sometimes known as frothing, stretching, or surfing, [8] and usually lasts less than 10 ...

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Froth_flotation

    The particle sizes are typically in the range 2–500 micrometers in diameter. [2] For froth flotation, an aqueous slurry of the ground ore is treated with the frothing agent. An example is sodium ethyl xanthate as a collector in the flotation of galena (lead sulfide) to separate it from sphalerite (zinc sulfide). The polar part of xanthate ...

  5. Blowing agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowing_agent

    A blowing agent is a substance which is capable of producing a cellular structure via a foaming process in a variety of materials that undergo hardening or phase transition, such as polymers, plastics, and metals. [1] They are typically applied when the blown material is in a liquid stage. The cellular structure in a matrix reduces density ...

  6. Foaming agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foaming_agent

    A foaming agent is a material such as a surfactant or a blowing agent that facilitates the formation of foam.A surfactant, when present in small amounts, reduces surface tension of a liquid (reduces the work needed to create the foam) or increases its colloidal stability by inhibiting coalescence of bubbles. [1]

  7. Fractionation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractionation

    [1] [2] Fractions are collected based on differences in a specific property of the individual components. A common trait in fractionations is the need to find an optimum between the amount of fractions collected and the desired purity in each fraction. Fractionation makes it possible to isolate more than two components in a mixture in a single run.
