  2. Lithium diisopropylamide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_diisopropylamide

    Lithium diisopropylamide (commonly abbreviated LDA) is a chemical compound with the molecular formula LiN(CH(CH 3) 2) 2. It is used as a strong base and has been widely utilized due to its good solubility in non-polar organic solvents and non-nucleophilic nature. It is a colorless solid, but is usually generated and observed only in solution.

  3. Shore durometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_durometer

    The final value of the hardness depends on the depth of the indenter after it has been applied for 15 seconds on the material. If the indenter penetrates 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) or more into the material, the durometer is 0 for that scale. If it does not penetrate at all, then the durometer is 100 for that scale.

    wherein the chemical potential of an ideal gas can be evaluated analytically. Now let's focus on ⁠ μ e x , {\displaystyle \mu _{ex},} ⁠ since the potential energy of an ⁠ ( N + 1 ) {\displaystyle (N+1)} ⁠ -particle system can be separated into the potential energy of an ⁠ N {\displaystyle N} ⁠ -particle system and the potential of ...

    A 10-gauge (3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (89 mm)) shotgun shell shown next to a United States quarter. The 10 gauge narrowly escaped obsolescence when steel and other nontoxic shot became required for waterfowl hunting, since the larger shell could hold the much larg [1] er sizes of low-density steel shot needed to reach the ranges necessary for waterfowl ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesium_iodide

    An important application of caesium iodide crystals, which are scintillators, is electromagnetic calorimetry in experimental particle physics.Pure CsI is a fast and dense scintillating material with relatively low light yield that increases significantly with cooling, [11] and a fairly small Molière radius is 3.5 cm.

  7. Isobutyraldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobutyraldehyde

    Isobutyraldehyde is the chemical compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CHCHO. It is an aldehyde, isomeric with n-butyraldehyde (butanal). [1] Isobutyraldehyde is made, often as a side-product, by the hydroformylation of propene.

  8. Limestone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limestone

    During diagenesis of carbonate sediments, significant chemical and textural changes take place. For example, aragonite is converted to low-magnesium calcite. Diagenesis is the likely origin of pisoliths, concentrically layered particles ranging from 1 to 10 mm (0.039 to 0.394 inches) in diameter found in some limestones. Pisoliths superficially ...
