  2. Thread-locking fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread-locking_fluid

    A bottle of Loctite thread-locking fluid Bolts with thread-locking fluid applied. Thread-locking fluid or threadlocker is a single-component adhesive, applied to the threads of fasteners such as screws and bolts to prevent loosening, leakage, and corrosion.

  3. Sealant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealant

    Sealant is a substance used to block the passage of fluids through openings in materials, [1] a type of mechanical seal. In building construction sealant is sometimes synonymous with caulk (especially if acrylic latex or polyurethane based) [2] and also serve the purposes of blocking dust, sound and heat transmission. Sealants may be weak or ...

  4. Expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_joint

    A joint replacing mortar with elastomeric sealant will absorb the compressive forces without damage. [4] Concrete decking (most typically in sidewalks) can suffer similar horizontal issues, which is usually relieved by adding a wooden spacer between the slabs. The wooden expansion joint compresses as the concrete expands.

    Sodium metasilicate is the chemical substance with formula Na 2 SiO 3, which is the main component of commercial sodium silicate solutions. It is an ionic compound consisting of sodium cations Na +

  6. Insulated glazing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_glazing

    An adhesive, primary sealant (polyisobutylene) is applied to the face of the spacer on each side and the panes pressed against the spacer. If the unit is gas-filled, two holes are drilled into the spacer of the assembled unit, lines are attached to draw out the air out of the space and replacing it (or leaving just vacuum) with the desired gas.

    An IBM circuit board from a NASA Space Shuttle computer with a conformal coating applied. Conformal coating is a protective, breathable coating of thin polymeric film applied to printed circuit boards (PCBs).

  9. Liquid-ring pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-ring_pump

    Liquid-ring pumps are typically used as vacuum pumps, but can also be used as gas compressors.The function of a liquid-ring pump is similar to a rotary vane pump, with the difference being that the vanes are a rigid part of the rotor and churn a rotating ring of liquid to form the compression-chamber seal.
