3. Calcium silicate hydrate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_silicate_hydrate

   When water is added to cement, each of the compounds undergoes hydration and contributes to the final state of the concrete. [2] Only calcium silicates contribute to the strength. Tricalcium silicate is responsible for most of the early strength (first 7 days). [3] Dicalcium silicate, which reacts more slowly, only contributes to late strength.

4. Iridescence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iridescence

   [2] [3] It is often caused by multiple reflections from two or more semi-transparent surfaces in which phase shift and interference of the reflections modulates the incidental light, by amplifying or attenuating some frequencies more than others. [2] [4] The thickness of the layers of the material determines the interference pattern.

5. Translucent concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translucent_concrete

   Translucent concrete (also: light-transmitting concrete) is a concrete based building material with light-transmissive properties due to embedded light optical elements — usually optical fibers. Light is conducted through the stone from one end to the other. Therefore, the fibers have to go through the whole object.

6. Wash (visual arts) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wash_(visual_arts)

   The result is a smooth and uniform area that ideally lacks the appearance of brush strokes and is semi-transparent. A wash is accomplished by using a large amount of solvent with little paint. Paint consists of a pigment and binder which allows the pigment to adhere to its support. Solvents dilute the binder, thus diluting the binding strength ...

7. Transparent ceramics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparent_ceramics

   Transparent armor is a material or system of materials designed to be optically transparent, yet protect from fragmentation or ballistic impacts. The primary requirement for a transparent armor system is to not only defeat the designated threat but also provide a multi-hit capability with minimized distortion of surrounding areas.
