If a wedge-shaped coating of increasing thickness is removed from a substrate by an instrument like the Hesiometer with a knife of constant rake angle, a number of removal mechanisms are often observed which depend upon the thickness of the coating.

If, conversely, tin is used to coat steel, when a breach of the coating occurs it actually accelerates oxidation of the iron.

If the dye has the opposite charge, it is attracted to and retained by this coating, while the solvent soaks into the paper.

If a visible output was needed, a second tube with a phosphor coating was used as a display device.

If the active ingredient of a tablet is sensitive to acid, or is irritant to the stomach lining, an enteric coating can be used, which is resistant to stomach acid, and dissolves in the less acidic area of the intestines.

If the highest percentage of absorption of a drug takes place in the stomach, a coating that dissolves quickly and easily in acid will be selected.

If the rate of absorption is best in the large intestine or colon, then a coating that is acid resistant and dissolves slowly would be used to ensure it reached that point before dispersing.

If the aluminum oxide thickness is chosen correctly it functions as an anti-reflective coating, reducing reflection at the surface.

If this coating is scratched, normal passivation processes take over to protect the damaged area.

If, after birth, the complete amniotic sac or big parts of the membrane remain coating the newborn, this is called a caul.

If damage does occur to the chrome surface, food acids tend to penetrate and dissolve the metal substrate beneath the chrome coating, causing it to spall off.

If the layer's thickness is controlled precisely such that it is exactly one-quarter of the wavelength of the light ( a quarter-wave coating ), the reflections from the front and back sides of the thin layer will destructively interfere and cancel each other.

If the item to be breaded is too dry for the coating to stick, the item may first be moistened with buttermilk, raw egg, or other liquid.

If an ultrafilter is used, all of the rinsed off materials can be returned to the coating vessel, allowing for high utilization efficiency of the coating materials, as well as reducing the amount of waste discharged into the environment.

If the resulting coating contains aromatic urea crosslinks, the UV resistance will be considerably worse than if only urethane crosslinks can occur.

If excessive heat is applied or applied too quickly, or if the force between the base materials is too low, or the coating is too thick or too conductive, then the molten area may extend to the exterior of the work pieces, escaping the containment force of the electrodes ( often up to 30, 000 psi ).

If the windows are designed to provide heat energy in the winter and keep heat inside the house ( typical of cold climates ), the low-emissivity coating should be applied to the inside pane of glazed windows.

If a manufacture of a CPU requires 35 exposure masks, that translates approximately into 35 x ( photoresist coating, exposure, development, main process step ( like etching, diffusion, metal filling ), photoresist stripping and / or polishing, and other possible steps ) plus additional steps before and after all processing.

If the glass is kept in the flame too long, the metallic coating will turn silver and burn off.

If he becomes chancellor, Dr. Erhart would make few changes.

If we grasp this orientation as a key, our national conduct in all of the events here mentioned becomes intelligible.

If we neglect higher than first order terms in the fluctuations, the mass balance equation becomes

If the balance factor becomes 0 then the height of the subtree has decreased by one and the retracing needs to continue.

If the balance factor becomes − 2 or + 2 then the subtree is unbalanced and needs to be rotated to fix it.

If the object point O is infinitely distant, u1 and u2 are to be replaced by h1 and h2, the perpendicular heights of incidence ; the sine condition then becomes sin u ' 1 / h1 = sin u ' 2 / h2.

If the batter gets a base hit, which would have scored the runner anyway, the run now becomes earned.

* If G is a locally compact Hausdorff topological group and μ its Haar measure, then the Banach space L < sup > 1 </ sup >( G ) of all μ-integrable functions on G becomes a Banach algebra under the convolution xy ( g ) = ∫ x ( h ) y ( h < sup >− 1 </ sup > g ) dμ ( h ) for x, y in L < sup > 1 </ sup >( G ).

If we allow only quantifiers, it becomes the Co-NP-complete tautology problem.

If a suitably sized quantum computer capable of running Grover's algorithm reliably becomes available, it would reduce a 128-bit key down to 64-bit security, roughly a DES equivalent.

If a non-working point number placed, bought or laid becomes the new point as the result of a come-out, the bet is usually refunded, or can be moved to another number for free.

If is any unit vector, the projection of the curl of F onto is defined to be the limiting value of a closed line integral in a plane orthogonal to as the path used in the integral becomes infinitesimally close to the point, divided by the area enclosed.

If the core becomes sufficiently dense, electron degeneracy pressure will play a significant part in stabilizing it against gravitational collapse.

If the column load is gradually increased, a condition is reached in which the straight form of equilibrium becomes so-called neutral equilibrium, and a small lateral force will produce a deflection that does not disappear and the column remains in this slightly bent form when the lateral force is removed.

If the 15 minutes of a quarter expire while the ball is live, the quarter is extended until the ball becomes dead.

If the situation worsens it is possible that the defenses cease to function altogether and the individual becomes aware of the incongruence of their situation.

If m is greater than 1, the figure becomes larger ; if m is between 0 and 1, it becomes smaller.

If S is an arbitrary set, then the set S < sup > N </ sup > of all sequences in S becomes a complete metric space if we define the distance between the sequences ( x < sub > n </ sub >) and ( y < sub > n </ sub >) to be, where N is the smallest index for which x < sub > N </ sub > is distinct from y < sub > N </ sub >, or 0 if there is no such index.

If these two features of the language coincide too frequently, they overemphasize each other and the hexameter becomes sing-songy.

If y is a point where the vector field v ( y ) ≠ 0, then there is a change of coordinates for a region around y where the vector field becomes a series of parallel vectors of the same magnitude.

If one alters a Euclidean space so that its inner product becomes negative in one or more directions, then the result is a pseudo-Euclidean space.

If I told you my son's age, then there would no longer be two unknowns ( variables ), and the problem becomes a linear equation with just one variable, that can be solved as described above.

If we allow to incorporate the algebraic sign, this becomes a sum and implies that there is a function of state which is conserved over a complete cycle.
