  2. Bresle method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bresle_method

    These molecules, together with salt and other oxidation agents trapped during coating or migrating through the coating, create an electrolytic cell, causing corrosion. Blast cleaning is frequently used to clean surfaces before coating; however, with salt contamination, blast cleaning may increase the problem by forcing salt into the base material.

  3. Acrylic painting techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_painting_techniques

    Fluid paint, in general, is a moveable form of acrylic paint. Fluid paints can be used like watercolors, for acrylic pouring, or for glazing and washes. To create a more fluid consistency, water or a pouring medium is added to the paint. The ratio of paint to water/pouring medium depends on how thick the glaze or pouring paint is expected to be.

  4. Dewetting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewetting

    In fluid mechanics, dewetting is one of the processes that can occur at a solid–liquid, solid–solid [1] or liquid–liquid interface. Generally, dewetting describes the process of retraction of a fluid from a non-wettable surface it was forced to cover.

  5. Paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint

    Paint is a material or mixture that, when applied to a solid material and allowed to dry, adds a film-like layer. As art, this is used to create an image or images known as a painting. Paint can be made in many colors and types. Most paints are either oil-based or water-based, and each has distinct characteristics.

  6. Rayleigh–Bénard convection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh–Bénard_convection

    Buoyancy, and hence gravity, are responsible for the appearance of convection cells. The initial movement is the upwelling of less-dense fluid from the warmer bottom layer. [8] This upwelling spontaneously organizes into a regular pattern of cells. Rayleigh–Bénard convection produces complex patterns of frost damage in grass. [9]

  7. Pouring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pouring

    Preparation of teh tarik involves pouring the tea at great height from one container to another repeatedly A foundry worker watching molten metal being poured out. Pouring is the act of tilting an open container which has liquid or bulk flowable solid inside of it, to cause the contents to flow out of the container under the influence of gravity.

  8. Capillary action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_action

    Capillary action of water (polar) compared to mercury (non-polar), in each case with respect to a polar surface such as glass (≡Si–OH). Capillary action (sometimes called capillarity, capillary motion, capillary rise, capillary effect, or wicking) is the process of a liquid flowing in a narrow space without the assistance of external forces like gravity.

    Then the bark was pounded from the branches and soaked in water for eight days. The water was boiled until it thickened and turned black. Wine was added during boiling. The ink was poured into special bags and hung in the sun. Once dried, the mixture was mixed with wine and iron salt over a fire to make the final ink. [15]
