  2. Polymer clay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_clay

    Polymer clay remains workable until cured. Curing occurs at temperatures from 265 °F (129 °C) to 275 °F (135 °C) sustained for 15 minutes per 14 inch (6.4 mm) of thickness. [1] This temperature is significantly less than for mineral clays and can be achieved using a home oven.

  3. Conservation and restoration of bone, horn, and antler objects

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_and...

    These objects can be protected further by being wrapped in unbuffered, acid-free tissue paper and/or placed in a sealed polyethylene bag when being transported. [2] Bone, antler, and horn objects are stored in tightly closed display cases or drawers to buffer them from sudden changes in temperature and relative humidity while shielding them ...

  4. Special treatment steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Treatment_Steel

    The development of such homogeneous steel resulted from testing which showed that face-hardened armor was less effective against high-obliquity glancing impacts. Around 1910, Carnegie Steel developed a new nickel-chrome-vanadium alloy-steel that offers improved protection over the prior nickel steel armor, though vanadium was no longer used ...

  5. Steel engraving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_engraving

    Steel plates can be case hardened to ensure that they can print thousands of times with little wear. The copper plates used in traditional engraving and etching, which are softer and so much easier to work cannot be case hardened but can be steel-faced or nickel-plated by electroplating to increase the number of impressions that could be printed.

  6. Ceramic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic

    [1] [2] Common examples are earthenware, porcelain, and brick. The earliest ceramics made by humans were fired clay bricks used for building house walls and other structures. Other pottery objects such as pots, vessels, vases and figurines were made from clay , either by itself or mixed with other materials like silica , hardened by sintering ...

  7. Vitreous enamel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitreous_enamel

    The powder melts, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating. The word vitreous comes from the Latin vitreus, meaning "glassy". Enamel can be used on metal, glass, ceramics, stone, or any material that will withstand the fusing temperature. In technical terms fired enamelware is an integrated layered composite of glass and ...

  8. Superhard material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhard_material

    OsB 2 has an orthorhombic structure (space group Pmmn) with two planes of osmium atoms separated by a non-planar layer of hexagonally coordinated boron atoms; the lattice parameters are a = 4.684 Å, b = 2.872 Å and c = 4.096 Å. [10] The b direction of the crystal is the most compressible and the c direction is the least compressible. [46]

  9. Differential heat treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_heat_treatment

    Diagram of a cross section of a katana, showing the typical arrangement of the harder and softer zones. Differential hardening (also called differential quenching, selective quenching, selective hardening, or local hardening) is most commonly used in bladesmithing to increase the toughness of a blade while keeping very high hardness and strength at the edge.
