  2. Fractal burning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_burning

    By applying a coat of electrolytic solution to the surface of the wood, the resistance of the surface drops considerably. Two electrodes are then placed on the wood and a high voltage is passed across them. Current from the electrodes will cause the surface of the wood to heat up until the electrolyte boils and the wooden surface burns.

  3. Wood ash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_ash

    According to one research on the average the burning of wood results in about 6–10% ashes. [2] The residue ash of 0.43 and 1.82 percent of the original mass of burned wood (assuming dry basis, meaning that H 2 O is driven off) is produced for certain woods if it is pyrolized until all volatiles disappear and it is burned at 350 °C (662 °F) for 8 hours.

  4. Creosote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creosote

    The creosote can be obtained by distilling the wood tar and treating the fraction heavier than water with a sodium hydroxide solution. The alkaline solution is then separated from the insoluble oily layer, boiled in contact with air to reduce impurities, and decomposed by diluted sulfuric acid.

  5. Formaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formaldehyde

    A saturated water solution, of about 40% formaldehyde by volume or 37% by mass, is called "100% formalin". A small amount of stabilizer, such as methanol, is usually added to suppress oxidation and polymerization. A typical commercial-grade formalin may contain 10–12% methanol in addition to various metallic impurities.

    >>What is the name of this contact lens solution?<< The most common one is called Boston and it is made by Bausch & Lomb. It is available in a 1 oz bottle as well - either sold as some type of "kit" (one example has a lens case, a 1 oz bottle of solution and a 1 oz bottle of cleaner) or individually as a 1 oz bottle.

  7. Wood preservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_preservation

    When free hydroxyl groups are transformed to acetoxy groups, the ability of the wood to absorb water is greatly reduced, rendering the wood more dimensionally stable and, because it is no longer digestible, extremely durable. In general, softwoods naturally have an acetyl content from 0.5 to 1.5% and more durable hardwoods from 2 to 4.5%.

  8. Methanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanol

    Methanol for chemical use normally corresponds to Grade AA. In addition to water, typical impurities include acetone and ethanol (which are very difficult to separate by distillation). UV-vis spectroscopy is a convenient method for detecting aromatic impurities. Water content can be determined by the Karl-Fischer titration.

  9. contact solution - Rome Forum - Tripadvisor

    I use Clear Care disinfecting contact lens solution and it does have travel sized bottle but instead of toting a dozen of these little bottles, I was hoping to purchase a comparable product or even better: the same product in Italy. We are only taking carryon luggage so we couldn't tote the large bottle. It is sold by Alcon/CIBAvision in the US.
