The bottom part and the top part can be covered with a layer of plastic foil for easier cleaning.

A hologram may be embedded either via hot-stamping foil, wherein an extremely thin layer of only a few microns of depth is bonded into the paper or a plastic substrate by means of a hot-melt adhesive ( called a size coat ) and heat from a metal die, or it may be directly embossed as holographic paper, or onto the laminate of a card itself.

The foil is than laminated to a thin sheet of card stock that has had a thick layer of wax coated upon it.

This is then encased in a thin layer of milk or dark chocolate and wrapped in a red and silver foil paper for the more popular milk chocolate variety, with blue, black, and gold wrapping for the dark.

At the connecting point between the two stages, the ions change charge from negative to positive by passing through a thin layer of matter (" stripping ", either gas or a thin carbon foil ).

A layer of selenium was applied to a sheet of soft iron foil, and thousands of tiny discs ( typically 2mm diameter ) were punched out of this and assembled as " stacks " inside ceramic tubes.

Laminated shim stock is stacked foil that can be peeled off one layer at a time to adjust the thickness of the shim.

Formation of a thicker oxide layer on the cathode foil consumes electrolyte, which reduces the life span of the capacitor.

Vark, Varak, Varakh or Varkh, Varq ( Hindi: वर ् ख ) is any foil / layer of very pure metal, typically silver, used for garnishing Indian sweets.

* Juice and milk cartons are made of liquid packaging board, a laminate of paperboard and LDPE ( as the water-proof inner and outer layer ), and often with of a layer of aluminum foil ( thus becoming aseptic packaging ).

They are huge areas which have been swept by winds for so many centuries that there is no soil left, but only deep bare ridges fifty or sixty yards apart with ravines between them thirty or forty feet deep and the only thing that moves is a scuttling layer of sand.

This is a phenomenon familiar to all radio listeners, resulting from reflection of skywave signals at night from the ionized layer in the upper atmosphere known as the ionosphere.

Thermoforming the laminate and then sanding away the top layer is a quick and economical way to produce a two-color sign.

The Af layers are stacked normal to the ( 111 ) axis with the lower oxygens of one layer directly above the upper oxygens of the neighboring lower layer, in such a manner that the repeat is every three layers.

The progeny feeds on a skin layer that is specially developed by the adult.

The ovum is at first rigidly held but in fertilised eggs, the innermost layer liquefies and allows the embryo to move freely.

Each course is laid the whole length of the wall, overlapping at the corners on a layer of adobe mortar.

Following each individual brick should be a layer of adobe mortar, recommended to be at least an inch thick to make certain there is ample strength between the brick ’ s edges and also to provide a relative moisture barrier during the seasons where the arid climate does produce rain.

The lower the layer the worse it is.
