  2. Hermetic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermetic_seal

    When the glass and the metal being hermetically sealed have the same coefficient of thermal expansion, a "matched seal" derives its strength from bond between the glass and the metal's oxide. This type of glass-to-metal hermetic seal is generally used for low-intensity applications such as in light bulb bases.

  3. Seal (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_(mechanical)

    Compression seal example. A seal is a device or material that helps join systems, mechanisms or other materials together by preventing leakage (e.g. in a pumping system), containing pressure, or excluding contamination.

  4. Induction sealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_sealing

    Induction sealing is the process of bonding thermoplastic materials by induction heating.This involves controlled heating an electrically conducting object (usually aluminum foil) by electromagnetic induction, through heat generated in the object by eddy currents.

  5. Canning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canning

    Canning is a method of food preservation in which food is processed and sealed in an airtight container (jars like Mason jars, and steel and tin cans). Canning provides a shelf life that typically ranges from one to five years, [ a ] although under specific circumstances, it can be much longer. [ 2 ]

  6. Vacuum packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_packing

    Sealed food alongside a home vacuum sealer and plastic rolls used for sealing. Vacuum packing is a method of packaging that removes air from the package prior to sealing. This method involves placing items in a plastic film package, removing air from inside and sealing the package. [1] Shrink film is sometimes used to have a tight fit to the ...

  7. VRLA battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VRLA_battery

    A 12V VRLA battery, typically used in small uninterruptible power supplies and emergency lamps. A valve regulated lead–acid (VRLA) battery, commonly known as a sealed lead–acid (SLA) battery, [1] is a type of lead–acid battery characterized by a limited amount of electrolyte ("starved" electrolyte) absorbed in a plate separator or formed into a gel; proportioning of the negative and ...

  8. Canned fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canned_fish

    Canned or tinned fish are food fish which have been processed, sealed in an airtight container such as a sealed tin can, and subjected to heat. Canning is a method of preserving food, and provides a typical shelf life ranging from one to five years.

  9. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

    By definition, the seal ring is the axially flexible member of the end-face mechanical seal. The design of the seal ring must allow for minimizing distortion and maximizing heat transfer while considering the secondary sealing element, drive mechanism, spring and ease of assembly.
