Other steps, many of which are often linked in automated systems, are "smashing and nipping" (in order to reduce swell and bring the books down to uniform size), trimming, edge colouring, rounding the backs of books, jacketing and packaging, and wrapping and addressing for mailing.
Used in medicine to reduce swollen mucous membranes that result from inflammations of the nasal, gastrointestinal, and urinary passages, astringents are also frequently employed to dry up excessive secretions and (in this connection they are often known as styptics) to stop bleeding.
Salt water will reduce swollen gums and draw infection out of any abscesses.
However, experience shows that lime will react with many medium-, moderately fine- and fine-grained soils to produce decreased plasticity, increased workability, reduced swell, and increased strength.
If the cyst is swollen, your doctor may inject it with a steroid in order to reduce swelling.[6].
Noise reduction by f-x projection (Soubaras 1995) and f-x prediction filtering (Canales 1984) was applied to reduce the swell noise and seismic waves by local earthquakes.
Apart from spinneret designs, this study also accentuates the importance of a proper choice of spinning conditions for each specific spinneret to achieve flow stability and reduce die swell, namely: (1) bore fluid composition; (2) dope flow rate; (3) spinning temperature; and (4) take-up speed.
Processability improvement has been achieved by reducing die swell and melt fracture during blending extrusion.
CO2 can dissolve easily into oil, reduce oil viscosity, swell the oil and it can extract the light components of oil.
If the gum is swollen, try holding an ice cube to the area to reduce the swelling.
The presence of new nucleation processes during oxidation of the deep reduced and swollen gels can be described by removal of vesicles (water and cations inside an amphiphile membrane) formed, during the film reduction-swelling, inside the gel electrode after a reduction threshold.
