  2. Tumble finishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumble_finishing

    Tumble finishing, also known as tumbling or rumbling, [1] is a technique for smoothing and polishing a rough surface on relatively small parts. In the field of metalworking , a similar process called barreling , or barrel finishing , [ 2 ] works upon the same principles.

  3. Polishing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polishing_(metalworking)

    Polishing is often used to enhance the appearance of an item, prevent contamination of instruments, remove oxidation, create a reflective surface, or prevent corrosion in pipes. In metallography and metallurgy, polishing is used to create a flat, defect-free surface for examination of a metal's microstructure under a microscope. Silicon-based ...

  4. Chemical-mechanical polishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical-mechanical_polishing

    Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) (also called chemical mechanical planarization) is a process of smoothing surfaces with the combination of chemical and mechanical forces. It can be thought of as a hybrid of chemical etching and free abrasive polishing. [ 1 ]

  5. Buffer (optical fiber) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_(optical_fiber)

    A loose buffer may contain more than one fiber, and sometimes contains a lubricating gel. A "tight buffer" consists of a polymer coating in intimate contact with the primary coating applied to the fiber during manufacture. Buffer application methods include spraying, dipping, extrusion and electrostatic methods.

  6. 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]

  7. McIlvaine buffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McIlvaine_buffer

    McIlvaine buffer is a buffer solution composed of citric acid and disodium hydrogen phosphate, also known as citrate-phosphate buffer. It was introduced in 1921 by the United States agronomist Theodore Clinton McIlvaine (1875–1959) from West Virginia University , and it can be prepared in pH 2.2 to 8 by mixing two stock solutions.

  8. Polished concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polished_concrete

    Images of objects being reflected have a matte appearance. 10 - 39 3: Polished Images of objects being reflected do not have a sharp and crisp appearance but can be easily identified. 40 - 69 4: Highly Polished Images of objects being reflected have a sharp and crisp appearance as would be seen in a near-mirror like reflection. May require ...

  9. SDS-PAGE - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SDS-PAGE

    Proteins of the erythrocyte membrane separated by SDS-PAGE according to their molecular masses. SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) is a discontinuous electrophoretic system developed by Ulrich K. Laemmli which is commonly used as a method to separate proteins with molecular masses between 5 and 250 kDa.
