2. Aquadag - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquadag

   Aquadag is a trade name for a water-based colloidal graphite coating commonly used in cathode ray tubes (CRTs). It is manufactured by Acheson Industries, a subsidiary of ICI. The name is a shortened form of "Aqueous Deflocculated Acheson Graphite", [1] but has become a generic term for conductive graphite coatings used in vacuum tubes. Other ...

3. Allotropes of carbon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_carbon

   Diamond is an excellent electrical insulator, but graphite is an excellent conductor. Diamond is an excellent thermal conductor, but some forms of graphite are used for thermal insulation (for example heat shields and firebreaks). At standard temperature and pressure, graphite is the thermodynamically stable form. Thus diamonds do not exist ...

4. Soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

   It is also used in plumbing and metalwork, as well as in the manufacture of jewelry and other decorative items. The solder used in the process can vary in composition, with different alloys used for different applications. Common solder alloys include tin-lead, tin-silver, and tin-copper, among others.

   The expanded graphite can be used to make graphite foil or used directly as a "hot top" compound to insulate molten metal in a ladle or red-hot steel ingots and decrease heat loss, or as firestops fitted around a fire door or in sheet metal collars surrounding plastic pipe (during a fire, the graphite expands and chars to resist fire ...

6. Optical properties of carbon nanotubes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_properties_of...

   A single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) can be envisioned as strip of a graphene molecule (a single sheet of graphite) rolled and joined into a seamless cylinder.The structure of the nanotube can be characterized by the width of this hypothetical strip (that is, the circumference c or diameter d of the tube) and the angle α of the strip relative to the main symmetry axes of the hexagonal ...

7. Graphite furnace atomic absorption - Wikipedia

   GFAA spectrometry instruments have the following basic features: 1. a source of light (lamp) that emits resonance line radiation; 2. an atomization chamber (graphite tube) in which the sample is vaporized; 3. a monochromator for selecting only one of the characteristic wavelengths (visible or ultraviolet) of the element of interest; 4. a detector, generally a photomultiplier tube (light ...
