  2. Photographic fixer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_fixer

    After fixation, washing is important to remove the exhausted chemicals from the emulsion. Otherwise they cause image deterioration. Otherwise they cause image deterioration. Other treatments of the remaining silver-based image are sometimes used to prevent "burning".

  3. Jacqueline Quinn (engineer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqueline_Quinn_(engineer)

    To tackle DNAPLS, Quinn invented emulsified zerovalent iron (EZVI), an innovative material which puts zerovalent iron into a surfactant-stabilized emulsion. The emulsion, which is biodegradable, can be injected into soil, and absorbs the contaminant into the emulsion. Once absorbed, the zerovalent iron in the emulsion breaks down the contaminant.

  4. Anti-halation backing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-halation_backing

    An anti-halation backing is a layer found in many photographic films—and almost all film intended for motion picture cameras—usually a coating on the back of the film base, though it is sometimes incorporated between the light-sensitive emulsion and the base. Its purpose is to absorb light that passes through the emulsion, thus preventing ...

  5. Demulsifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demulsifier

    Demulsifiers, or emulsion breakers, are a class of specialty chemicals used to separate emulsions, for example, water in oil. They are commonly used in the processing of crude oil , which is typically produced along with significant quantities of saline water.

  6. Photographic emulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_emulsion

    Photographic emulsion is a light-sensitive colloid used in film-based photography. Most commonly, in silver-gelatin photography , it consists of silver halide crystals dispersed in gelatin . The emulsion is usually coated onto a substrate of glass , films (of cellulose nitrate , cellulose acetate or polyester ), paper, or fabric.

  7. Repair kit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repair_kit

    Kits often also include a wax crayon to mark the puncture location. A repair kit or service kit is a set of items used to repair a device, commonly comprising both tools and spare parts. Many kits are designed for vehicles, such as cars, boats, airplanes, motorbikes, and bicycles, and may be kept with the vehicle in order to make on-the-spot ...

  8. Desoldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desoldering

    Most frequently, a hot air (or hot gas) gun, with a nozzle of appropriate size and shape, is used to heat the component, with nearby components shielded from the heat if necessary, followed by removal with tweezers or a vacuum tool. Removal of multi-pin components with a soldering iron and solder removal tools is impractical, as the solder ...

  9. Defoamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defoamer

    Milk and cream were forebears for modern-day emulsion type defoamers. [3] During the 1950s, experiments with silicone-based defoamers started. These were based on polydimethylsiloxane (silicone oil) dispersed in water or light oil. Silicone oils worked well, but caused surface disturbances in many applications like paints and papermaking.
