  2. Lime sulfur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_sulfur

    Bonsai enthusiasts use undiluted lime sulfur to bleach, sterilize, and preserve deadwood on bonsai trees while giving an aged look. [5] Rather than spraying the entire tree, as with the pesticidal usage, lime sulfur is painted directly onto the exposed deadwood, and is often colored with a small amount of dark paint to make it look more natural.

  3. Deadwood bonsai techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadwood_bonsai_techniques

    Once deadwood has been shaped to the designer's plan, the exposed area is treated with a bleaching preservative. The most common is a horticultural combination of lime and sulfur, available from many garden outlets. The preservative protects the wood from rot and pest infestation, and provides a uniform bleaching that resembles weathered, aged ...

  4. Bonsai cultivation and care - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonsai_cultivation_and_care

    Shari denotes stripping bark from areas of the trunk to simulate natural scarring from a broken limb or lightning strike. In addition to stripping bark, deadwood techniques may also involve the use of tools to scar the deadwood or to raise its grain, and the application of chemicals (usually lime sulfur) to bleach and preserve the exposed deadwood.

  5. Bleach - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleach

    Reducing bleaches have niche uses, such as sulfur dioxide, which is used to bleach wool, either as gas or from solutions of sodium dithionite, [3] and sodium borohydride. Bleaches generally react with many other organic substances besides the intended colored pigments, so they can weaken or damage natural materials like fibers, cloth, and ...

  6. Sulfite process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfite_process

    The pulping liquor for most sulfite mills is generated by treating various bases (alkali metal or alkaline earth hydroxides) with sulfur dioxide: SO 2 + MOH → MHSO 3 MHSO 3 + MOH → M 2 SO 3 + H 2 O. Similar reactions are effected with divalent cations (Mg2+, Ca2+) and using carbonates in place of hydroxide.

  7. Lignosulfonates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignosulfonates

    Lignosulfonates (LS) are water-soluble anionic polyelectrolyte polymers: they are byproducts from the production of wood pulp using sulfite pulping. [1] Most delignification in sulfite pulping involves acidic cleavage of ether bonds, which connect many of the constituents of lignin. [2]

  8. Bleaching of wood pulp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleaching_of_wood_pulp

    All bleaching agents used to delignify chemical pulp, with the exception of sodium dithionite, break lignin down into smaller, oxygen-containing molecules. These breakdown products are generally soluble in water, especially if the pH is greater than 7 (many of the products are carboxylic acids). These materials must be removed between bleaching ...

  9. Lime (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_(material)

    The conditions and compounds present during each step of the lime cycle have a strong influence of the end product, [8] thus the complex and varied physical nature of lime products. An example is when slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) is mixed into a thick slurry with sand and water to form mortar for building purposes. When the masonry has been ...
