  2. Cooling curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_curve

    A cooling curve of naphthalene from liquid to solid. A cooling curve is a line graph that represents the change of phase of matter, typically from a gas to a solid or a liquid to a solid. The independent variable (X-axis) is time and the dependent variable (Y-axis) is temperature. [1] Below is an example of a cooling curve used in castings.

  3. Stearic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stearic_Acid

    Stearic acid (/ ˈ s t ɪər ɪ k / STEER-ik, / s t i ˈ ær ɪ k / stee-ARR-ik) is a saturated fatty acid with an 18-carbon chain. [9] The IUPAC name is octadecanoic acid. [9] It is a soft waxy solid with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 16 CO 2 H. [9] The triglyceride derived from three molecules of stearic acid is called stearin. [9]

  4. Differential scanning calorimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_scanning...

    The result of a DSC experiment is a curve of heat flux versus temperature or versus time. There are two different conventions: exothermic reactions in the sample shown with a positive or negative peak, depending on the kind of technology used in the experiment. This curve can be used to calculate enthalpies of transitions. This is done by ...

  5. Continuous cooling transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_cooling...

    There are two types of continuous cooling diagrams drawn for practical purposes. Type 1: This is the plot beginning with the transformation start point, cooling with a specific transformation fraction and ending with a transformation finish temperature for all products against transformation time for each cooling curve.

  6. Cooling bath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_bath

    A cooling bath or ice bath, in laboratory chemistry practice, is a liquid mixture which is used to maintain low temperatures, typically between 13 °C and −196 °C. These low temperatures are used to collect liquids after distillation , to remove solvents using a rotary evaporator , or to perform a chemical reaction below room temperature ...

  7. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The equilibrium conditions are shown as curves on a curved surface in 3D with areas for solid, liquid, and vapor phases and areas where solid and liquid, solid and vapor, or liquid and vapor coexist in equilibrium. A line on the surface called a triple line is where solid, liquid and vapor can all coexist in equilibrium. The critical point ...

  8. Zirconium stearate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zirconium_stearate

    Zirconium stearate is a metal-organic compound, a salt of zirconium and stearic acid with the chemical formula C 72 H 140 ZrO 8. [1] [2] The compound is classified as a metallic soap, i.e. a metal derivative of a fatty acid. [3] [4]

  9. Sodium stearate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_stearate

    The idealized equation for the formation of sodium stearate from stearin (the triglyceride of stearic acid) follows: (C 18 H 35 O 2) 3 C 3 H 5 + 3 NaOH → C 3 H 5 (OH) 3 + 3 C 18 H 35 O 2 Na. Purified sodium stearate can be made by neutralizing stearic acid with sodium hydroxide. C 17 H 35 COOH+NaOH→C 17 H 35 COONa+H 2 O
