n
Any insulating grease that prevents corrosion of electrical connectors (and spark plugs etc) by preventing access by water
n
(dated) An alloy that has expanded upon cooling.
v
(obsolete, transitive) To solder or unite, as for example metals.
v
To melt, especially of metal in an industrial setting.
v
(transitive) To convert into gelatin or a jelly-like substance.
n
An adhesive that is applied in a liquid molten form but sets into a solid form as it cools.
v
(intransitive, by extension) To become rigid or fixed, like something made of wood.
n
(metallurgy) A shiny substance that floats on the surface of liquid metal as it issues from the smelting furnace, indicating that the metal is saturated with carbon.
n
(metallurgy) The partial melting of a mixture of metals or ores in order to separate components.
n
(Australia, India, UK) A machine to chop or puree food; a blender.
n
A liquid medium used in hydrometallurgy to selectively extract the desired metal from the ore or mineral.
n
(pyrometallurgy) The molten metal sulfide phases typically formed during smelting of copper, nickel, and other base metals.
n
Molten material, the product of melting.
v
To melt a metal, especially so that it can be remade into something else.
adj
Reduced to a particulate form
v
(transitive, metallurgy) To produce metal from ore by removing nonmetallic elements in a smelter.
n
(chiefly attributive) The direct liquid-phase reduction of ferrous and nonferrous ores and industrial waste products.
n
The removal of a layer of scale from a surface.
v
To compact and heat a powder to form a solid mass.
v
To purify by melting and removing slag.
adj
Mixed with water so that a true chemical combination has taken place
n
Any of the various liquids or semi-molten solids produced and used during the course of such production.
v
To pour, as steel, from a melting pot; to fill, as a mould, with molten metal.
n
A liquid substance used to thin the consistency of another liquid.
v
To separate (precious metal etc.) from the ore by melting; to purify, refine.
n
Any of a group of steel alloys developed to eliminate the need for painting, forming a stable rust-like appearance if exposed to the weather for a long period.
n
(physics, chemistry) A technique used to purify a metal, semiconductor or other solid in which a heating system slowly causes a series of molten zones to traverse the solid, leaving purer material behind it.
