Here are some recipes food coloring:

I. Red paint

Dissolve 1 part carmine, 2 parts ammonia, 35 parts distilled water.

Take 2 parts of cochineal, 4 parts of potassium carbonate, 50 parts of distilled water, insist for two days, then add 12 parts of cream of tartar, 1 part of alum. After removal of carbon dioxide, the mixture is filtered by adding boiling water to the filter from time to time until 62 parts of the filtrate are obtained. Finally add 3 parts of 90° alcohol to the liquid. Take 1 part of alkane root, 3 parts of ether, insist and leave, with frequent shaking, in a closed vessel for 4 days, after which the liquid is drained and the residue is again poured with 2 parts of ether. Both extracts are poured together, filtered, the ether is allowed to evaporate and the residue is evaporated to the density of the extract. Boil 6 parts of dried blueberries in 14 parts of hot water, then add 7 parts of 90% alcohol. After a few days, squeeze, filter and evaporate the liquid until the density of the extract. Take 5 parts of red beets, put in a warm oven and leave until it becomes completely soft. Then the beets are peeled from the outer skin, cut into small pieces, 4 parts of weak vinegar are poured and infused for a day. Then the liquid is drained, the residue is squeezed out, filtered, evaporated in a water bath until the density of the extract, and an equal weight of 90° alcohol is added.

II. yellow paint

Infuse for 5 hours 1 part of saffron, 1 part of glycerin in 10 parts of distilled water, squeeze out and again insist the remains of saffron with 10 parts of distilled water. Both liquids are drained and evaporated to the density of the extract and diluted with 3 parts of 90% alcohol.

Insist for a week 20 parts of safflower (fl. Carthami), 30 parts of distilled water, 70 parts of 90 ° alcohol, then squeezed and filtered.

The powder of orleans (Bixa Orellana) is extracted with wine alcohol and the filtrate is evaporated until the density of the extract.

Insist for several days 1 part of buckthorn berries, crushed in 5 parts of 70 ° alcohol, after which they are squeezed and filtered.

III. brown paint

Take 150 parts of granulated sugar, 1 part of potassium carbonate, heat over an open fire until the whole mass becomes black-brown and white bubbles form, then dilute with water and filter.

Boil starch with 2,5% sodium hydroxide and 5% water until a dark brown intumescent mass is formed, which is then diluted with water until the syrup is thick.

IV. blue paint

Dissolve 1 part of the best indigo in 50 parts of vodka.

V. Green paint

Mix some yellow paint with blue (see above) in various proportions to obtain the desired shade.

Dissolve 1 part of chlorophyll in 20 parts of the 90th alcohol.

Dissolve 200 parts of fresh spinach or nettle grass, infuse for 1 hours in a solution of 2000 part of carbonic acid in 12 parts of distilled water, squeeze, pour out the liquid, infuse the residue for 400 hours (no longer) with 70 parts of XNUMX ° alcohol, squeezed and filtered. Stored in dark glass bottles.

Fat soluble paints:

Yellow: essential extract of orleans and turmeric.
Red: alkane.
Green: chlorophyll.
Brown: alkane mixed with chlorophyll

Paints soluble in alcohol and water:

Yellow: turmeric, orleans and saffron.
Red: alkane.
Blue: indigo.
Green: turmeric mixed with indigo.
Brown: burnt sugar.

Sugar soluble paints:

Yellow: turmeric, orleans. Red: carmine.
Blue: indigo.
Green: turmeric mixed with indigo.
Brown: burnt sugar.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

New coating changes the properties of glass 15.08.2013

The developed clear coating makes ordinary glass very durable, self-cleaning and incredibly slippery. Glass with such properties is useful everywhere: from smartphone screens to car windows.

Engineers and scientists from Harvard University have created a unique coating based on their own development: a technology for the production of super-slippery porous synthetic films called SLIPS. The new coating is less slippery than older prototypes, but much more durable and completely transparent. This allows you to create useful materials that repel almost all types of dirt and at the same time protect the glass from scratches and do not obstruct your view. Imagine how convenient car windows and mirrors would be, from which water and dirt roll off without stopping. In addition, the new coating can be used to make durable, scratch-resistant eyeglass lenses, self-cleaning windows and solar panels, as well as new medical diagnostic devices.

To create the new SLIPS coating, the researchers placed tiny spherical polystyrene particles on a flat glass surface. Then the particles were filled with liquid glass, up to about half the height of the polystyrene spheres. As the glass solidified, the bursting spherical polystyrene particles formed a honeycomb of an array of tiny craters, which were then filled with a special liquid SLIPS lubricant. The honeycomb structure gives the new coating mechanical strength, and the thin layer of liquid lubricant allows any liquid to easily flow over the glass surface. A similar function is performed by a thin layer of melted water under the blade of a skater's skates.

When developing SLIPS technology, scientists were inspired by the unique features of the carnivorous Sarracenia plant, which lures insects to the surface of the leaves, so slippery that even the prehensile paws of insects cannot hold on to them. Scientists have succeeded in creating a synthetic analogue of the coating of sarracenia leaves, which, unlike previous water-repellent materials, repels even oil and sticky liquids such as honey. The new coating also resists the formation of ice and bacterial biofilms.

Currently, scientists are improving the technology for the production of a new coating, to transfer it to industry. Experiments are also being carried out with the coating of various materials, such as plexiglass, as well as glass products of complex shape.
