In the efforts of achieving green manufacturing process, the use of mineral base lubricant has been under question as it poses significant health and environmental hazards. This is a concerning issue since it was estimated figure of one million workers are exposed to machining lubricant [1]. Based on the investigation made on the effect of mineral base lubricant towards machinist’s health, evidence shows machinists that are exposed to primarily the mineral base straight lubricant can suffer from skin cancer [2] and esophageal diseases [3,4]. Furthermore, this finding does not exclude the health risk posed by mineral base soluble lubricant. The formulation of these lubricants were complicated that combine ingredients such as base oil (mostly mineral base oil), emulsifiers, anticorrosive agent, antioxidant agent, biocides, surfactants and much more. The use of additives in the making of lubricant can be one of the …show more content…
One of many is the ability of the lubricant to stay in contact with the workpiece during the machining process. Therefore, the wettability of the lubricant needs to be investigated to ensure the best performance is achieved. Wettability of a liquid can be measured by looking at its contact angle value. This ability resulted from the surface energy of the liquid and the intermolecular interaction between the liquid and solid. The balance between adhesive and cohesive force weighs the capability of intermolecular interaction. The adhesive force is the force that keeps the liquid drop intact to the solid surface, while the cohesive force is the force that prevents the liquid to stay intact with the solid surface. Thus, liquid drop that has a low wetting angle has a higher adhesive force that the cohesive force. This will allow the force to pull the liquid towards the solid surface rather than pushing it away. D.B. Abraham et al. discussed more theory on wetting and spreading
The similar feature is that there is increase in pressure rates with increase of drops
Our hypothesis was partially correct, the property changing substances did have the weakest coherency with the lowest drop counts of 23(carbonated), and 14(soap), and pure water did have the strongest bond. What we also found was the the salt also dampened the liquid’s ability to hold onto a penny in large volumes, as all the different salts had a drop average of 24(28x2 & 16), five less than Tap water’s drop count (30). This led us to conclude that pure water has the strongest bond and that all foreign materials weaken the coherency of water. This evidence has led me to believe that similar substances are attracted and are more coherent towards themselves, in this case the water pieces get separated and generally less connected on a really small level due to the obstruction of foreign objects, this is why the different salts perform better than the huge air bubbles or the slippery properties of soap since the latter is more obstructive and the former dissolves with the water and blocks less. When studying a few other groups’ conclusions and data we did indeed find differences: some groups had differing data where a solution had better coherence than water itself which led to differing conclusions.
LickBase Norte Chico is a civilization that is found in Peru near the coasts (1). This civilization flourished between 13 B.C.E and 18 B.C.E (1). This site is believed to be one of the oldest sites in the Americas, showing types of sophistication, fishermen and farmers (2). The people of the Norte Chico mostly got their food from farming and fishing (2).
Double Replacement Lab Report Date Completed: October 8, 2015 Objective To analyze and determine if a chemical reaction occurred between two compounds using the concepts we learned in class. Also, if the chemical reaction occurred, to determine if it formed a precipitate or gas.

Minerals 1. The minerals under the DRI for my age group would be calcium, potassium, sodium, copper ,iron, magnesium, phosphorous, selenium, and zinc. The mineral that comes below the DRI would be be potassium. However, it is not more than 80% below the DRI. However I did have a low potassium intake.
“The 1970 OCR memorandum and the Lau V. Nichols Supreme Court decision led to expansion of Title VI enforcement under the Ford and Carter administrations” (Ovando 79). The 1975 Lau Remedies provided the United States office for Civil Rights guidelines for compliance. These guidelines provided ideas for identifying language minority students and assessing their English proficiency, determining appropriate instructions, deciding their grade level, and determining the standards of teachers. The Lau Remedies created a background to develop and implement bilingual language wherever it is possible.
Drippy Drop started off in a cloud over Mount Everest, where the first step of the water cycle would occur, precipitation. Drippy Drop fell in the form of snow on the peak of Mount Everest. Seven months passed when the snow started to turn mushy. Some snow melted and created a run-off. So Drippy Drop fell to the very bottom and soaked into the fresh soil at the bottom of Mount Everest.
- The calculated TWA for the personal sample is (0.041 ppm), which did not exceed OSHA-PELs (0.75 ppm) for Formaldehyde, but did exceed both ACGIH-TLVs (0.3 ppm) and NIOSH-RELs (0.016 ppm) for Formaldehyde. - The calculated TWA for the desk area sample is (0.022 ppm), which did not exceed OSHA-PELs (0.75 ppm) for Formaldehyde nor did it exceed ACGIH-TLVs (0.3 ppm), but it did exceed the NIOSH-RELs (0.016 ppm) for Formaldehyde. - The calculated TWA for the cadaver area sample is (0.032 ppm), which did not exceed OSHA-PELs (0.75 ppm) for Formaldehyde, but did exceed both ACGIH-TLVs (0.3 ppm) and NIOSH-RELs (0.016 ppm) for Formaldehyde. • Discussion and Conclusion: To calculate the TWA a similar exposure method was used to assume worst case scenario. The results showed that the worker was not exposed to Formaldehyde concentrations exceeding OSHA-PELs in all calculated TWAs, which are the maximum exposure limits allowed under Federal law, which should be followed by the employers to protect the health of their workers.
When you add soap it makes the amount of drops decrease in comparison to the water. Introduction: In this experiment, it deals with surface tension. In easier terms, surface tension is basically a property of the surface of a liquid. This allows the specific liquid, in this case water and soapy water, to resist an external force.
If an object is less dense than the water or air surrounding it, the object floats; if the object is denser, it sinks. When an object does float on water, the water will not remain flat, but will instead form a bump or dimple, depending on the object’s weight. When two identical objects float close together, the change is more noticeable—two cheerios, for example, will cause slight dents in the milk and close together, will appear to “fall into” each other or form clumps. Surface tension is a property that makes the surface of a liquid act like a flexible membrane. It results from various
It was the invention of the internal combustion engine that made fuels based on crude oils (i.e diesel and
Flex Tape not only attaches itself onto dry surfaces but even underwater as well. This area of the commercial is effective because it shows the consumer that they are getting a product that can be useful for many situations and not just one. This makes the product seem more worth the purchase. The commercial next shows a large tree branch crashing through a roof during a big rainstorm causing a lot of damage. Phil then demonstrates the wider version of Flex Tape allowing it to fully cover the hole and keep the rain out.
Depending on if the compound is immiscible in water or not, the dissolved substances will have more attraction to one of the layers over the other, therefore separating the two different
What they actually do: Petroleum derived ingredients are pore clogging components, which work as a delivery agent, meaning they trap all other junk in the product deeper into the pores. Sometimes they may come with such hazardous ingredients as the 1,4-dioxane, a carcinogen and neurotoxin... Parabens Names: acnemethylparaben, propylparaben, ethylparaben, butylparaben What they are supposed to do: Supposedly they make the mold growth stop and also extend the shelf life of the product... What they actually
Water on hydrophobic surfaces will display a high contact point. Superhydrophobic surfaces are exceptionally hydrophobic, i.e., greatly hard to wet. The contact angle of a water droplet surpasses 150° and the contact angle hysteresis is under 10°. This is also referred to as the Lotus impact, after the superhydrophobic leaves of the lotus plant. Rough and microstructured surfaces characteristically build hydrophobicity of hydrophobic surfaces through two altogether
