  2. Wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_gauge

    In commerce, the sizes of wire are estimated by devices, also called gauges, which consist of plates of circular or oblong form having notches of different widths around their edges to receive wire and sheet metals of different thicknesses. Each notch is stamped with a number, and the wire or sheet, which just fits a given notch, is stated to ...

  3. Epoxy value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy_value

    Epoxy value derives from the Epoxy equivalent weight (EEW) or Weight Per Epoxide (WPE) and is a measure of the epoxy content of an epoxy resin or epoxy reactive diluent, or glycidyl ether. [1] This is an important parameter as it allows determination of the correct mix ratio of an epoxy system with a curing agent. [ 2 ]

  4. Hardness comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness_comparison

    Hardness comparison. A variety of hardness -testing methods are available, including the Vickers, Brinell, Rockwell, Meyer and Leeb tests. Although it is impossible in many cases to give an exact conversion, it is possible to give an approximate material-specific comparison table for steels.

    5.0 HB (pure lead; alloyed lead typically can range from 5.0 HB to values in excess of 22.0 HB) Pure Aluminium: 15 HB Copper: 35 HB Hardened AW-6060 Aluminium: 75 HB Mild steel: 120 HB 18–8 (304) stainless steel annealed: 200 HB [3] Quenched and tempered steel wear plate: 400-700 HB Hardened tool steel: 600–900 HB (HBW 10/3000) Glass: 1550 ...

  6. Janka hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test

    The Janka hardness test (English: / ˈdʒæŋkə /; [1] German: [ˈjaŋka]), created by Austrian-born American researcher Gabriel Janka (1864–1932), measures the resistance of a sample of wood to denting and wear. [citation needed] It measures the force required to embed an 11.28-millimeter-diameter (7⁄16 in) steel ball halfway into a ...

  7. Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_tensile_strength

    The ultimate tensile strength of a material is an intensive property; therefore its value does not depend on the size of the test specimen.However, depending on the material, it may be dependent on other factors, such as the preparation of the specimen, the presence or otherwise of surface defects, and the temperature of the test environment and material.

    The problem with ordering those wines at many restaurants is that the bottles are too young. They'd benefit from some aging, but restaurants need to sell their wines, so it's a bit of a conundrum ...

  9. Computational chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_chemistry

    Computational chemistry can help predict values like activation energy from catalysis. The presence of the catalyst opens a different reaction pathway (shown in red) with lower activation energy. The final result and the overall thermodynamics are the same. Computational chemistry is a tool for analyzing catalytic systems without doing experiments.
