    The dye itself can be directly absorbed through the skin and into the bloodstream. [14] The stratum corneum (the outermost layer of skin also called the “horny layer”) contains a “lipid domain” that allows the dye to pool and provide opportunity to diffuse into the body. [14] Some hair dyes can also irritate the skin with prolonged ...

  3. Japanning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanning

    Japanning is most often a heavy black lacquer, almost like enamel paint. Black is common, and japanning is often synonymous with black japanning. The European technique uses varnishes that have a resin base, similar to shellac, applied in heat-dried layers which are then polished, to give a smooth glossy finish. It can also come in reds, greens ...

  4. Quench polish quench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quench_polish_quench

    Quench polish quench (QPQ) is a specialized type of nitrocarburizing case hardening that increases corrosion resistance. It is sometimes known by the brand name of Tufftride, Tenifer or Melonite. [ 1 ]

    The solution can be used on cast iron and mild low-carbon steel. The resulting finish complies with military specification MIL-DTL–13924D Class 4 and offers abrasion resistance. Black oxide finish is used on surgical instruments in light-intensive environments to reduce eye fatigue. [citation needed]

    Brown or black can be used as a base color for copper patina. If the amount of chlorides decreases the color will be more bluish-green, if carbonate decreases, more yellow-[27] Black for copper. Solution of sodium polysulfide 2.5%, items must be submerged in the solution after color developing, wash, dry and wax or varnish colored object. [28]

    Gothic châsse; 1185–1200; champlevé enamel over copper gilded; height: 17.7 cm (7.0 in), width: 17.4 cm (6.9 in), depth: 10.1 cm (4.0 in). Vitreous enamel, also called porcelain enamel, is a material made by fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing, usually between 750 and 850 °C (1,380 and 1,560 °F).

  8. Electropolishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electropolishing

    Electropolishing, also known as electrochemical polishing, anodic polishing, or electrolytic polishing (especially in the metallography field), is an electrochemical process that removes material from a metallic workpiece, reducing the surface roughness by levelling micro-peaks and valleys, improving the surface finish.

  9. Polishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polishing

    Polishing is the process of creating a smooth and shiny surface by rubbing it or by applying a chemical treatment, leaving a clean surface with a significant specular reflection (still limited by the index of refraction of the material according to the Fresnel equations). [1]
