  2. Floor scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_scrubber

    Floor buffers or rotary floor machines use rotary brushes of a soft material to clean, scrub, and polish linoleum surfaces. For marble and wood floors, floor polishers may be used to apply protective coating to the floor. [1] Floor burnisher is the term for a high speed floor buffer that rotates its pad at over 1000 RPM.

  3. Nail buffing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nail_buffing

    Nail buffing is the act of polishing the nail using buffers of successively finer grit in order to make nails look more consistent and shiny. [1] A paste is used to fill ridges on nail surfaces. [2] Buffing is also done prior to the application of nail products or artificial nails to help the product adhere to the nail.

  4. Polishing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

    Buffing may be done by hand with a stationary polisher or die grinder, or it may be automated using specialized equipment. When buffing there are two types of buffing motions: the cut motion and the color motion. The cut motion is designed to give a uniform, smooth, semi-bright surface finish.

  5. 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]

  6. Rice polisher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_polisher

    Vertical cone polisher: This machine uses a covered cone within a perforated screen to create an abrasive surface for polishing rice. [ 7 ] Horizontal polisher : This machine uses a cylinder covered in emery that is placed within another cylinder and rotated to polish the rice.

  7. Buffer solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_solution

    For alkaline buffers, a strong base such as sodium hydroxide may be added. Alternatively, a buffer mixture can be made from a mixture of an acid and its conjugate base. For example, an acetate buffer can be made from a mixture of acetic acid and sodium acetate. Similarly, an alkaline buffer can be made from a mixture of the base and its ...

  8. Toilet brush - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet_brush

    The brush is typically stored in a holder, but in some cases completely hidden in a tube. An electric toilet brush is a little different from a normal toilet brush. The bristles are fastened on the rotor of a motor which works similar to an electric tooth brush. The power supply is attached without any metal contact via electromagnetic induction.

  9. Condensate polisher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensate_polisher

    A condensate polisher is a device used to filter water condensed from steam as part of the steam cycle, for example in a conventional or nuclear power plant (powdered resin or deep bed system). It is frequently filled with tiny polymer resin beads which are used to remove or exchange ions so that the purity of the condensate is maintained at or ...
