  2. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

    Polymer Foam Beads can have a bulk density as low as 0.011 g/cc and range in size from 45 microns to over 8 mm. Common drawbacks to using Polymer Foam Beads in formulated systems include static, temperature, and chemical resistance limitations and difficulty achieving a homogenous blend within a formulated system due to their extremely low bulk ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talc

    Talcum powder The structure of talc is composed of Si 2 O 5 sheets with magnesium sandwiched between sheets in octahedral sites. Talc is used in many industries, including paper making, plastic , paint and coatings (e.g. for metal casting molds), rubber, food, electric cable, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and ceramics.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolled_homogeneous_armour

    MIL-DTL-46177 is an older, now-replaced standard for a high hardness steel RHA. [4] It specifies a harder steel that is nearly identical to AR500 in terms of tensile and yield strength. [5] The Brinell hardness of AR500 is in the 477-534 range. MIL-DTL-46100E specifies a steel of identical hardness. [3]

  6. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

    Microscopic close-up of mild steel sheet metal. Sheet metal is metal formed into thin, flat pieces, usually by an industrial process. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate, such as plate steel, a class of structural steel.

  7. Magnesium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_carbonate

    Some basic forms such as artinite (Mg 2 CO 3 (OH) 2 ·3H 2 O), hydromagnesite (Mg 5 (CO 3) 4 (OH) 2 ·4H 2 O), and dypingite (Mg 5 (CO 3) 4 (OH) 2 ·5H 2 O) also occur as minerals. All of those minerals are colourless or white. Magnesite consists of colourless or white trigonal crystals. The anhydrous salt is practically insoluble in water ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_(material)

    In the lime industry, limestone is a general term for rocks that contain 80% or more of calcium or magnesium carbonate, including marble, chalk, oolite, and marl.Further classification is done by composition as high calcium, argillaceous (clayey), silicious, conglomerate, magnesian, dolomite, and other limestones.

  9. Calcium ammonium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_ammonium_nitrate

    The term "calcium ammonium nitrate" is applied to multiple different, but closely related formulations. One variety of calcium ammonium nitrate is made by adding powdered limestone to ammonium nitrate; [1] [2] another, fully water-soluble version, is a mixture of calcium nitrate and ammonium nitrate, which crystallizes as a hydrated double salt: [3] 5Ca(NO 3) 2 •NH 4 NO 3 •10H 2 O.
