Why is leather a mixture, and not a pure substance? Why do we use tungsten, which is a metal having low resistivity to make the filament of a bulb, rather than using an alloy having high resistivity and high melting point? Why does metal feel cold?
All that is needed to make basic steel is a combination of iron and carbon. However, over time it was found that adding different elements to this basic steel substance can increase its toughness or hardness. These added elements account for what is the major difference of most types of stee...
Method in the manufacture of steel, especially stainless steel, one or more metal-containing residues from the steel manufacturing process being mixed with an admixture which has a content of a substance in group 14 of the periodic system, following which the mixture is allowed to solidify and ...
Refilling plastic bottles is often believed to be bad because of a substance known as “antimony,” a metal used during plastic manufacturing that may be carcinogenic. The concern is that this antimony will begin to leak into your water when reusing plastic bottles over time. Fortunately, this ...

Before coring, porewater from each core site was collected using a perforated stainless-steel tubing inserted into the peat to the desired depth and extracted with an airtight syringe. No pore water was collected in the dry palsa or above the water table in the bog. Porewater was used to ...
In some cases, the BL systems can have not enough sensitivity to detect a toxic substance at its Maximum Permissible Concentration. but they result the quicker, or more convenient, bioassays. This is the case, for example of deltamethrin determination. The sensitivity of the BLB test was hig...
Because the composition and construction of a tantalum-MnO2 capacitor is similar to that of a firecracker (a finely divided metal in intimate mixture with a substance that releases oxygen when heated) these capacitors are well-known for failing in pyrotechnic fashion, characterized by explosions and...
The crystalline substance found in most disposable diapers is sodium polyacrylate, a chemical absorbent used in the super absorbent layer. Sodium polyacrylate can absorb 200 to 300 times its weight in tap water, transforming it into a gooey gel to keep the diaper surface dry. While sodium polyacr...
Ceramic is the substance of choice for a susceptor baseplate of the present invention. Problems with particles sticking onto process wafers make utilizing metal for the baseplate less desirable. As far as the ceramic itself is concerned, if uniformity in baseplate temperature distribution is stressed,...
