n
(obsolete) Evaporation; dissipation into the air.
n
(physics) A method of attaining successively lower temperatures by utilizing the cooling effect of the expansion of one gas in condensing another less easily liquefiable, and so on.
n
Alternative spelling of coprecipitation [(chemistry) The precipitation of an otherwise soluble substance through the precipitation of another substance.]
n
The separation of a colloidal system into two liquid phases, one of which (the coacervate) is more concentrated in the colloid component.
n
The action, or the result, of coevaporating
n
(chemistry) The product of a condensation reaction.
n
(physics) The conversion of a gas to a liquid.
n
(chemistry) The product of a condensation reaction.
n
The gradual breakdown of components of a material, as a result of a natural element, i.e.: heat, cold and wind.
n
The desolvated material so obtained
n
The active property of a detergent
n
The change of vapour into water, as in the formation of rain.
v
(intransitive) To undergo diffraction
n
The movement of water vapor from regions of high concentration (high water vapor pressure) toward regions of lower concentration.
n
(analytical chemistry) A solvent or other liquid preparation used to dilute a sample prior to testing.
n
(chemistry) Any substance that is used to prevent settling or clumping of particles suspended in a liquid.
n
(petroleum) Separation into specific hydrocarbon groups; fractionation.
n
The process of separating the lighter particles from the heavier ones by means of an upward directed stream of gas or liquid.
n
evaporation accompanied by, or followed by condensation
n
(physics) The cooling of a liquid due to the removal of the faster-moving molecules by evaporation from its surface
n
(mining, chemical engineering) A process of separating minerals by agitating a mixture with water and detergents etc; selected substances being carried to the surface in air bubbles.
adj
(physics) Containing one or more isotopes that are heavier than the normal one.
n
Any solution obtained by lixiviation.
n
(physics, chemistry) a separation method in which a nonwetting, microporous membrane is used with a liquid feed phase on one side of the membrane and a condensing, permeate phase on the other
n
(chemistry) A method of separating or purifying compounds by partitioning them between immiscible liquids.
n
A material added to an explosive to make it less susceptible to detonation and thus more stable and safer to handle and transport.
n
(chemistry) Any substance prepared using polycondensation
n
(chemistry) a solid that exits the liquid phase of a solution
n
(physics) A material that has some, but not all, characteristics of a condensate
n
(physics) The formation of a quasicondensate
n
The process of converting liquefied natural gas (LNG) at −162 °C (−260 °F) temperature back to natural gas at atmospheric temperature. It consists in the evaporation of liquified natural gas after transport (by ship) to a distribution terminal
v
(sciences) To evaporate in a rotavapor
n
The separation of a suspension of solid particles into a concentrated slurry and a supernatant liquid, either to concentrate the solid or to clarify the liquid.
n
Any substance that is dissolved in a liquid solvent to create a solution
n
(chemistry) The separation of the components of a solution by partitioning between immiscible liquids
n
(physics) condensation to form a superfluid
adj
Capable of producing superinsulation.
n
(rare, chemistry) supernatant liquid
n
The process of turning a laminar flow into a turbulent flow.
n
(metallurgy) The repeated plastic deformation of a material, causing a permanent distortion of its crystal structure, and an increase in its strength
