  • Burning in Naval Stores Forest
    Proceedings: 3rd Tall Timbers Fire Ecology Conference 1964 Burning in Naval Stores Forest NORMAN R. HAWLEY Naval Stores Conservation Program U. S. Forest Service Valdosta, Georgia BEFORE discussing woods burning in naval stores, what is naval stores? First, be it understood that there are three fields within the activity, namely (1) wood distillation, or the process of obtaining the desired product from pine stumps; (2) the capture of tall oil in the sulfate pulping process, and (3) gum naval stores, or the harvesting of oleoresin or gum from standing, living pine trees, ob­ tained throughout a long working season of some seven months annually. Today, I shall discuss fire in its relation to the gum naval stores business. But first, how did the activity derive its odd name? There is cause for puzzlement. The story is told-with tongue in cheek-that a Secretary of the Navy, somewhat confused, but firm in his resolve to be prepared, declared: "I don't know what it is, but let's get some of it!" The term is a carry-over from the days of sail. Then the product was in prime demand. It caulked the hulls of wooden ships, and treated rigging against the erosive action of sun, rain, wind, ice, and salt water. How old is the business? We know that flammable gum featured heavily in the combustibles tossed around in ancient Mediterranean sea fights. Some writers speak with authority that it dates from the year 315 B. C. Others point to the Bible and quote from chapter and verse how Noah treated the hull of the Ark with derivatives from the 81 NORMAN R.

  • EC Duro-Bond Rubber Sheet Linings Description
    EC Duro-Bond Rubber Sheet Linings Description Both Soft Natural Rubber and Hard Natural Rubber Linings are offered by Electro Chemical. Sheet thicknesses of 120 mils (2.3 mm), 150 mils (3.4 mm), and 180 mils (4.6 mm) are available. Soft Natural Rubber DURO-BOND S-123 is an uncured, soft three ply rubber sheet lining. The lining consists of a soft ply bonded to the substrate, a semi-hard center ply, and a soft natural outer ply. Hard Natural Rubber DURO-BOND SH-160 is an uncured, flexible, hard rubber sheet lining. It is a high grade, duplex rubber sheet lining consisting of a flexible ebonite semi-hard rubber layer backed with a thin layer of soft gum rubber. DURO-BOND SH-160CL is the same lining except that it is specifically formulated for chlorine service. Uses DURO-BOND S-123 Soft Natural Rubber is used as a general purpose lining material for resistance to chemical agents and abrasion. It is generally resistant to alkalis, numerous acidic and organic chemicals and inorganic salts, and is used for lining equipment such as steel tanks, agitated vessels, agitators and related process equipment. When resistance to a combination of high temperature conditions and abrasive situations is required, DURO-BOND S-123 proves to be quite useful. DURO-BOND SH-160 and SH-160CL Hard Natural Rubbers are used as a lining material when resistance to a wide variety of corrosive materials at continuous elevated temperatures is required. DURO-BOND SH-160 and DUROBOND SH-160CL resists the low concentration, high temperature conditions generally found in water treatment facilities and other chemical environments including pickling solutions and strong acids at high temperatures.

Go thru the grits to at least 320 or 400. • Depends on type of wood and finish you plan to apply and sheen you want. 3. Sand with the grain with last grit. 4. Don’t overheat the wood. Keep speed low. 5. Don’t over sand especially on soft or open grain woods. What are the common Finishes? 1) Oil • Natural product extracted from walnut, linseed, Tung, soy bean, etc. • Polymerized oil is heated to about 500 degrees in absence of oxygen, dryers sometimes added. Goal is to dry faster • Provided a natural looking finish but limited protection 2) Shellac • Shellac is a resin secreted by the female lac bug on trees in the forests of India and Thailand. • Friction Polish – Shellac, Alcohol, Boiled Linseed Oil, Beeswax optional 3) Varnish • Synthetic product made by cooking a drying oil and add resin like urethane or Alkalyd. • Wiping Varnish – Varnish/thinner blend 4) Lacquer • Nitrocellulose lacquer is mostly solvent-based and comprised of plant-based substances like cotton, mixed nitric and sulfuric acids. 5) Wax • Beeswax, carnuba • Provides little protection but adds sheen and maintains natural color • Used as both a finish and a polish.

She was very excited to become an integral part of the design team. “We’re not just about furnishings and fixtures,” she says. “But also about selecting materials for the entire condo including the kitchen, wet bar and baths.” With water surrounding the 6,400-square-foot penthouse on three sides — the Atlantic Ocean to the East, the Intracoastal to the West and the Palm Beach inlet to the South — the home’s dazzling backdrop was true blue.

  • TECHNICAL DATA SHEET Transtint® Liquid Dye Concentrate
    TECHNICAL DATA SHEET TransTint® Liquid Dye Concentrate Homestead Finishing Products P O Box 360275 Strongsville, OH 44136-0005 Phone: 216-631-5309 www.homesteadfinishingproducts.com Product Description TransTint Dyes are a single component concentrated metallized acid dyestuff dissolved in a glycol ether carrier. The product is designed to be let down with a polar or mildly polar solvent such as water or alcohol and used as a dye stain on bare wood for interior surfaces. It is not suitable for exterior use. It can also be added directly to clear finishing materials to make toners. TransTint is not a finish and must be top coated with a clear finish. TransTint Dyes are suitable for furniture and architectural applications but are not recommended for toys or food preparation surfaces. Advantages TransTints are formulated from light stable metallized acid dyes. They are more lightfast when compared to conventional “aniline” powdered type dye stains. TransTint dyes concentrated formulation allows the user great latitude in using the dye because glycol ethers are compatible with a wide variety of finishing products. The dye can be mixed with either water or alcohol as a bare stain on wood - or added directly to finishing materials like shellac and lacquer to make toners or stains. NOTE: Use of TransTints in certain applications may be restricted in some California Counties. Refer to “VOC Restrictions” on page 5 for more information. Using TransTint Liquid Dyes TransTints represent an innovation in dye technology. This eliminates the waiting for dyes to dissolve, straining as well as solvent guesswork. As a Stain - To use TransTints as a stain for bare wood, stir in the concentrate to either water or alcohol.
