What was contained in the luminescent paint base that was used to inscribe numbers on watch dials in the 1920s?
A paint containing radium.
What is selenium sulfide lotion for?
Can selenium sulfide be used in treatment for lice?
Why would peptone ion agar be used in a biochemical test?
peptone agar is used to show the production of hydrogen sulfide
What was radium ond polium used for?
Radium: treatment by radiotherapy of some cancers, luminescent paintings for dials, neutron source as Ra-Be, uses in research laboratoryPolonium: radioactive heat source, neutron source as Po-Be, devices to eliminate dust and static elecrtricity, neutron trigger in nuclear weapons, uses in research laboratory
Why is hydrogen sulfide used to restore the color of old paintings?
Hydrogen sulphide is a toxic gas; also dangerous for paintings containing lead colours and for objects made from silver. You think probably to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), used for restoring.. Lead (II) trioxocarbonate (IV) in white Lead (II) paint is converted to lead (II) Sulphide by atmospheric Hydrogen Sulphide. This reaction darkens the colour of the Paint. Hydrogen Peroxide is added to the Paint to restore the colour where it oxidizes the Lead (II) Sulphide to Lead (II) tetraoxosulphate (VI).
What was contained in the luminescent paint base that was used to inscribe numbers on watch dials in the 1920s?
A paint containing radium.
What is zinic used for?
Dietary supplements, deodorants, dandruff shampoo, luminescent paint, mix it with copper and make brass, it is used in batteries, etc.
Why was radium used in luminous paint?
Alpha particles emitted by radium produce radioluminescence is zinc sulfide.
What element is used in self luminous paint?
Radium self luminescent paint hasn't been used in decades since the hazards of it's ionising radiation became widely known. Modern technology of self luminescent paint seems to be based on tritium gas in a similar concept to tritium glow sticks but instead contained within micro particles. These micro particles can be painted on or made in to solid plastic. It is self luminous for 20+ years with a 12 year half-life. The company MPK who invented it calls the technology Litrospheres and also has plans for using it to self power solar panels as an energy source. At the present time this self luminescent paint, plastic or energy source technology has not been made available to the public.
When was radium first used?
Probably after 1910, for luminescent dial paints.
What is selenium sulfide lotion for?
Can selenium sulfide be used in treatment for lice?
What is the name for compound H2S?
The most often used name is "hydrogen sulfide". It could also properly be called "dihydrogen sulfide."
How is zinc used in technology?
Zinc chloride- in deodorants Zinc pyrithione- anti-dandruff shampoos Zinc sulfide- in luminescent paints Zinc ditheye or zinc methyl- in the organic laboratory
What is Calcium sulfide used for?
explore yourselves ^^
How is silicon sulfide used?
Silicon Sulfide is a compound of silicon. It is used to make glass such a windows and eye glasses and also to make microchips and containers.
Are there any novels about the radium dial painters?
Radium is not used as a component of luminescent paints from about 80 years !
What Compares and contrasts sulfates and sulfides?
Sulfate and sulfide are the same because they both need the element sulfur. they are diffrent because sulfide is used to make batteries, medicines, and electronic parts,while sulfates are used in cement, paint, cosemetic tooth pastes and stuff. P.S. this is a 6th grade compare and contrast. use only if needed.it is correct though.we have test and a got 100%. ^_^
