  2. Graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite

    The expanded graphite can be used to make graphite foil or used directly as a "hot top" compound to insulate molten metal in a ladle or red-hot steel ingots and decrease heat loss, or as firestops fitted around a fire door or in sheet metal collars surrounding plastic pipe (during a fire, the graphite expands and chars to resist fire ...

  3. Parchment paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parchment_paper

    Parchment paper for baking. Parchment paper, also known as baking paper, is a cellulose-based paper whose material has been processed so as to obtain additional properties such as non-stickiness, grease resistance, resistance to humidity and heat resistance. [1] It is commonly used in baking and cooking as a

    Paper Coating 1) The paper or board 2) The first layer of coating to even out the surface 3) A second layer for an even smoother and whiter surface. Pigments that absorb in the yellow and red part of the visible spectrum can be added. As the dye absorbs light, the brightness of the paper will decrease, unlike the effect of an optical ...

  5. Expandable graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expandable_graphite

    To produce expandable graphite, natural graphite flakes are treated in a bath of acid and oxidizing agent.Usually used oxidizing agents are hydrogen peroxide, potassium permanganate or chromic acid. Concentrated sulphuric acid or nitric acid are usually used as the compound to be incorporated, with the reaction taking place at temperatures of ...

  7. Graphitizing and non-graphitizing carbons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphitizing_and_non...

    Rosalind Franklin first identified them in a 1951 paper in Proceedings of the Royal Society. [1] In this paper, she defined graphitizing carbons as those that can transform into crystalline graphite by being heated to 3,000 °C (3,270 K; 5,430 °F), while non-graphitizing carbons do not transform into graphite at any temperature.

  8. Brass rubbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brass_rubbing

    Brass rubbings are created by laying a sheet of paper on top of a brass (then called "latten" - a zinc-copper alloy produced via the obsolete calamine brass process) and rubbing the paper with graphite, wax, or chalk, a process similar to rubbing a pencil over a piece of paper placed on top of a coin.

  9. Soda pulping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda_pulping

    A precursor to the soda pulping process was the paper making process developed by Matthias Koops in 1801 which involved washing wood shavings in limewater, adding soda crystals and then boiling the mixture. [2] Soda pulping was one of the first chemical pulping methods and was invented in 1851 by Burgess (United States) and Watts (England).
