  2. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    The application of a texture in the UV space related to the effect in 3D. A representation of the UV mapping of a cube. The flattened cube net may then be textured to texture the cube. UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping.

  3. Photo-oxidation of polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo-oxidation_of_polymers

    By comparison the dependence of degradation rate on UV exposure and the availability of oxygen is broadly linear. As the oceans are cooler than land plastic pollution in the marine environment degrades more slowly. [40] [41] Materials buried in landfill do not degrade by photo-oxidation at all, though they may gradually decay by other processes.

  4. Retrobright - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrobright

    Ozone gas can also be used for retrobrighting, as long as an ozone generator, a suitable container of sufficient size and a source of UV are available, but can take longer than other methods. [ 8 ] A simpler but slower process involving merely exposure of the yellowed plastic to bright sunlight has been described, variously called 'Sunbrighting ...

  5. Photopolymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photopolymer

    Most commonly, photopolymerized systems are typically cured through UV radiation, since ultraviolet light is more energetic. However, the development of dye-based photoinitiator systems have allowed for the use of visible light , having the potential advantages of being simpler and safer to handle. [ 7 ]

  6. Hair straightening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair_straightening

    Hair straightening is a hair styling technique used since the 1890s involving the flattening and straightening of hair in order to give it a smooth, streamlined, and sleek appearance. [1] It became very popular during the 1950s among black males and females of all races.

  7. Greying of hair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greying_of_hair

    The order in which greying happens is usually: nose hair, hair on the head, beard, body hair, eyebrows. [ 2 ] [ failed verification ] Greying is a gradual process; according to a study by L'Oreal , overall, of those between 45 and 65 years old, 74% had some grey hair, covering an average of 27% of their head, and approximately 1 in 10 people ...

  8. Human hair color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_hair_color

    The Fischer–Saller scale, named after Eugen Fischer and Karl Saller is used in physical anthropology and medicine to determine the shades of hair color. The scale uses the following designations: A (very light blond), B to E (light blond), F to L (), M to O (dark blond), P to T (light brown to brown), U to Y (dark brown to black) and Roman numerals I to IV and V to VI (red-blond).
