  2. Gelatin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelatin

    Gelatin is used as a binder in match heads [39] and sandpaper. [40] Cosmetics may contain a non-gelling variant of gelatin under the name hydrolyzed collagen (hydrolysate). Gelatin was first used as an external surface sizing for paper in 1337 and continued as a dominant sizing agent of all European papers through the mid-nineteenth century. [41]

  3. Mechanics of gelation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanics_of_gelation

    Thus, if the elasticity is inferred from the measurements of the scattering intensity, and the viscosity is determined independently (via mechanical methods such as ultrasonic attenuation) measurement of the relaxation rate yields information on the pore size distribution contained within the polymer network, e.g. large fluctuations in polymer ...

  4. Paper chemicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_chemicals

    Paper chemicals designate a group of chemicals that are used for paper manufacturing, or modify the properties of paper. These chemicals can be used to alter the paper in many ways, including changing its color and brightness, or by increasing its strength and resistance to water. [1] The chemicals can be defined on basis of their usage in the ...

  5. Surface chemistry of paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_chemistry_of_paper

    Consumers are most concerned with the paper-ink interactions which vary for certain types of paper due to different chemical properties of the surface. [8] Inkjet paper is the most commercially used type of paper. Filter paper is another key type of paper whose surface chemistry affects its various forms and uses. The ability of adhesives to ...

  6. Gelatin silver print - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelatin_silver_print

    A gelatin silver print is composed of four layers: paper base, baryta, gelatin binder, and a protective gelatin layer or overcoat. The multi-layer structure of the gelatin silver print and the sensitivity of the silver imaging salts require specialized coating equipment and fastidious manufacturing technique to produce a consistent product that ...

  7. Ballistic gelatin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_gelatin

    Ballistic gelatin is traditionally a solution of gelatin powder in water. Ballistic gelatin closely simulates the density and viscosity of human and animal muscle tissue, and is used as a standardized medium for testing the terminal performance of firearms ammunition. While ballistic gelatin does not model the tensile strength of muscles or the ...

  8. Woodburytype - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodburytype

    It is filled with liquid pigmented gelatin and a sheet of paper is then pressed down onto it, squeezing out the excess gelatin and attaching the remainder to the paper. After the gelatin has set sufficiently, the print is stripped from the mold, trimmed, and usually mounted onto a larger sheet or card.

  9. Gel - Wikipedia

    An upturned vial of hair gel Silica gel. A gel is a semi-solid that can have properties ranging from soft and weak to hard and tough. [1] [2] Gels are defined as a substantially dilute cross-linked system, which exhibits no flow when in the steady state, although the liquid phase may still diffuse through this system.
