polyplastics

Identification of polyplastics Identification of polyplastics is not an easy task even for experts in well-equipped laboratories. The type, that is, the group of polyplasts for mastering at home, is determined much easier, more successfully. All you need for this test is a match and, of course, a piece of the tested substance, and also...

Chemical car care, polyplastics (thermoplastics, thermosets)

polyplastics

Car chemical care Car tire protection During prolonged use or storage when not in use, tires become brittle, hard and lose elasticity. This process is slow, it takes several years. The condition of car tires depends primarily on the effects of oxygen, ozone and ultraviolet radiation. Heat accelerates reactions that destroy…

Corrosion, oxidation, degreasing of metal surfaces, metal coating

metal coating

Etching Etching is the chemical dissolution of the surface layers of metals. So, for example, when making a copper engraving, a copper plate is covered with wax, the desired image or text is drawn with a needle and it is covered with nitric acid. The acid will corrode surfaces not covered with wax. The same applies to etching...

Dry cleaning and polishing, fabric impregnation, fur processing

cleaning fabric

Chemical cleaning Main principles: if the textile gets dirty, it is recommended to clean the stain immediately, because fresh stains are removed much easier. Soap and lukewarm water are often sufficient for quick intervention. The first step in cleaning is to determine the origin of the impurity (e.g. vegetable oil, mineral...
