How to cook castor varnish?

Dry distillation of castor oil produces a rubbery residue which, when dissolved in hydrocarbons (gasoline) or alcohol, is an excellent, impermeable, sun-resistant, highly durable varnish.

Wool, linen, etc. smeared with this varnish. become impervious to water. When varnish is mixed with earths or metal oxides, a very strong putty is obtained.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Structural paint 05.01.2015

Many beetles and butterflies are colored without the use of dyes - due to the fact that nanostructures are located on the surface of the elytra of the first and the wings of the second, which convert white light into colored light. If a person could learn how to apply a similar method on an industrial scale, he would get rid of the need to deal with a huge variety of substances. In addition to saving on production, the task of subsequent processing is also simplified.

A step in this direction was taken by researchers from the Technological University of Denmark, led by Asger Mortensen. With the help of structural coloring, they depicted the emblem of their institute on the polymer.

First, they made a silicon stamp from periodically spaced cylindrical pits a few tens of nanometers in diameter. Then this stamp was printed on the surface of the polymer. A layer of aluminum 20 nm thick was applied to the resulting relief, and aluminum disks 50 nm high were obtained. The image has appeared! Depending on the diameter of the disks and the distance between them, some areas turned out to be yellow, others - blue.

The protective clear coat shifted the colors to the red side, but the effect did not disappear. The main cost, of course, is the production of the die, and the rest of the processes are cheap enough to allow mass production of multi-colored polymers without ink.
