Can you install copper and powder coated aluminum together?

Actually, i don't know if u want get the alloy. but if that, we can use electrodeposited method to easily get the alloy in any shapes. we can discuss about it later.

What is the full form of IRG?

Tape storage is primarily used for archival storage. The recording medium is a thin polyester tape between 0.38cm and 2.54cm wide, about .025mm thick and coated with magnetic particles. The tape is wound on wheels of various sizes. Data is recorded sequentially, one byte after the other, from the beginning of the tape to its end. Access times for tape storage are much slower than for floppy diskettes or hard disks.The following diagram shows how data is stored on the disk. The read/write head is comprised of several tracks, 9 tracks being very common. This means nine bits are recorded across the width of the tape simultaneously. Using nine tracks, one byte of data plus a parity bit is recorded at a time (vertically). Characters are grouped together to form a record (often called a block). Each record is separated from the next record by a blank inter-record gap (IBG). Each record is preceded by a header field. The IBG allows the software to position the tape for recording or playing at specific record numbers. Physical markers are used to indicate the ends of the tape, and may be metallic foil, clear plastic or software markers encoded on the tape. Software encoding uses BOT(beginning of tape) and EOT (end of tape) indicators. IRG=IBG


Why tool handles are plastic coated?

less likely to fractur or splinter than wood and plastic is not conductive which when working on/near electrcity is a good thing. also it lightens the tool making it easy to use but keeps same aount of grip or leverage


How do the hard disk work After replacing it?

It spins for one ( at usually 7200 rpm) and writes in a language that involves 1 and 0's(Binary Code) It is a like a rewritable CD but a lot cooler A hard disk stores data in much the same way as a floppy drive, magnetic pulses are imprinted onto the surface of the disk by a read/write head which can also then read the data back. Hard disks differ from floppies in that the data can be stored in much higher densities and accessed at much higher speeds by using a non-removable disk which is sealed from contaminants. Modern hard disks usually have several disks within them (platters) and dedicated read/write heads for both sides of each. The platters themselves are usually made of some aluminum alloy coated with a thin layer of iron oxide and are very rigid. A hard disk drive (HDD), commonly referred to as a hard drive, hard disk, or fixed disk drive, is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces. Strictly speaking, "drive" refers to a device distinct from its medium, such as a tape drive and its tape, or a floppy disk drive and its floppy disk. Early HDDs had removable media; however, an HDD today is typically a sealed unit (except for a filtered vent hole to equalize air pressure) with fixed media.

Can you make aluminum foil change colors?

No you can not make aluminum foil change colours. Because it is already galvanised all chemical colour changing will not work because the aluminum is coated.


What is the difference between extruded aluminum and powder coated aluminum and anodized aluminum?

Extruded aluminum is aluminum that is melted down and extruded, pushed through a certain 2d shaped hole. This can result in square tube, rectangular tube, an L shaped extrude, and an infinite array of other shapes. Powder coated aluminum is aluminum that could be extruded aluminum, that is cleaned, coated with a colored plastic powder, and then baked so that the plastic powder melts and forms a smooth, nice and even coat of colored plastic over the part. This is basically painting the part. Anodized aluminum is aluminum, again this could be extruded aluminum, but it couldn't be powder coated aluminum, that is put in a chemical solution, possibly sulfuric acid, and then a current is run through the aluminum. This causes a reaction to occur where a layer of aluminum oxide gathers on the surface of the part. The processes is then stop and the part can be colored if desired. Anodozing aluminum gives the part better corrosive resistance and makes the surface tougher and harder than it would have been if it had not been anodized. It does add thickness to the part which can be a downside, but it also is lighter than a powder coat if a paint job is desired.
