Sentence examples for virgin surfaces from inspiring English sources

PAAT increased the microhardness of the surfaces by 10 40% over that of the virgin surfaces.

Motile individual cells initially attached to virgin surfaces could modify the surface by shedding their EPS during movement, and subsequently provide a specific anchor for other isolated cells to display S motility.

a Typical virgin surface.

It is known that the surface energy of a virgin surface can be increased significantly by ion bombardment.

Upon heating of D-covered virgin GC surfaces, CD3 surface groups desorb between 500 and 1000 K. Stationary etching of GC by a flux of H atoms is most efficient around 600 K, as was previously observed on other carbon materials, a-C H thin films a-C Hraphithinand as expected filmsthe etching mechandsm on C substrates.

Thermal desorption spectra indicate that D atoms on virgin GC surfaces are adsorbed on distorted graphite basal planes, i.e. the recombinative desorption features of D on GC between 400 and 600 K are broadened as compared to those measured on graphite.

The portion of virgin bell metal surface dipped inside the solution is soon found to change its color from bright golden to blackish (at the observation time of 8 h), thereby showing corrosion of the surface.

Since the surfaces of virgin layered silicates are hydrophilic, significant hindrances appear at synthesis of high-performance polymer/clay nanocomposites comprising hydrophobic polymer matrices.

The composition and microstructure of the virgin and worn cathode surfaces as well as the resulting coatings were characterized using optical and electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, elastic recoil detection analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and nanoindentation.

Moreover, the highest emission intensity of CH species observed in the Ar/styrene plasma at 80 W is possibly another significant factor contributing to such enhanced corrosion resistance behavior of the film deposited at RF power of 80 W. Open image in new window Figure 19 Images showing visually observed corrosion tested surfaces of virgin bell metal and SPP films.

The improved fire retardancy by nanocomposites has been attributed usually to the formation of a surface layer as a result of accumulation of nanoparticles on top of the virgin polymer because this surface layer not only acts as mass and thermal barriers to the polymer underneath but primarily increases surface radiation losses as the surface temperature increases.
