  2. Rendering (animal products) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(animal_products)

    Rendering is a process that converts waste animal tissue into stable, usable materials. Rendering can refer to any processing of animal products into more useful materials, or, more narrowly, to the rendering of whole animal fatty tissue into purified fats like lard or tallow. Rendering can be carried out on an industrial, farm, or kitchen scale.

  3. Pressure-sensitive paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_paint

    Pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) is a method for measuring air pressure or local oxygen concentration, usually in aerodynamic settings. PSP is paint-like coating which fluoresces under a specific illumination wavelength in differing intensities depending on the external air pressure being applied locally to its surface.

  4. External render - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_render

    Rendering is a traditional craft that has evolved over many centuries. Basic rendering began as a method of excluding draughts and rain by using clay to fill in cracks and crevices, referred to as wattle-and-daub. [1] Other renders, based on lime [2] binders were also used over the years. These materials had one significant disadvantage in that ...

  5. Tallow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tallow

    Commercial tallow commonly contains fat derived from other animals, such as lard from pigs, or even from plant sources. Tallow consists mainly of triglycerides (fat), whose major constituents are derived from stearic and oleic acids. The solid material remaining after rendering is called cracklings, greaves, or graves. [1] It has been used ...

  6. Hegman gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hegman_gauge

    Determining the fineness of a paint's grind is important, because too coarse a grind may reduce the paint's color uniformity, gloss, and opacity. [7] The Hegman gauge is widely used for this purpose because it requires minimal skill and only a few seconds' work.

  7. Coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coating

    Extrusion coating - generally high pressure, often high temperature, and with the web travelling much faster than the speed of the extruded polymer Curtain coating- low viscosity, with the slot vertically above the web and a gap between slot-die and web. Slide coating- bead coating with an angled slide between the slot-die and the bead.

    Spray paint being applied to a piece of equipment An LVLP system spray gun. Spray painting is a painting technique in which a device sprays coating material (paint, ink, varnish, etc.) through the air onto a surface.

  9. Permanent downhole gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_Downhole_Gauge

    A permanent downhole gauge (PDG) is a pressure and/or temperature gauge permanently installed in an oil or gas well. [1] These gauges are typically installed in the tubing in the well and can measure the tubing pressure, annulus pressure, or both.
