These stones were initially sold under the names " Emerita " and " Symeralds ", and they were grown as a thin layer of emerald on top of natural colorless beryl stones.

These asbestos minerals form long, thin, flexible, and strong fibres, which are electrical insulators, chemically inert and heat-resistant ; as such, they have several applications, especially in construction materials.

These questions include how signals are processed by neurites – thin extensions from a neuronal cell body, consisting of dendrites ( specialized to receive synaptic inputs from other neurons ) and axons ( specialized to conduct nerve impulses called action potentials ) – and somas ( the cell bodies of the neurons containing the nucleus ), and how neurotransmitters and electrical signals are used to process information in a neuron.

These roads have the same base layer as gravel roads but are covered with a thin layer of bitumen to reduce maintenance cost and dust formation.

These are made as extremely thin ( 2 – 3 mm ) versions of the popular French fry, but are fried in the manner of regular salted potato chips.

These slings typically have a cradle that is long and thin and features a relatively long slit.

These include molecular-sized gaps called break junctions, in which a thin electrode is stretched until it breaks.

These thin protuberances on the surface of the body contain diverticula of the water vascular system.

These small creatures share several characteristic physical features: a plump, arch-backed body with a long, delicately tapering snout, large upright ears, long, thin legs, and a thin tail.

These parallel grooves conceal the fact that the cerebellum is actually a continuous thin layer of tissue ( the cerebellar cortex ), tightly folded in the style of an accordion.

These thrust faults carry relatively thin slices of rock ( which are called nappes or thrust sheets, and differ from tectonic plates ) from the core of the shortening orogen out toward the margins, and are intimately associated with folds and the development of metamorphism.

These reeds are roughly rectangular in shape except for the thin vibrating tip, which is curved to match the curve of the mouthpiece tip.

These moths have thin bodies and large wings like many butterflies but may be distinguished easily by structural differences in their antennae ( e. g. bipectinate ).

These include cábanos ( salty, short, thin, and served individually ), butifarra ( of Catalan origin ; spicier, shorter, fatter and moister than cábanos, often eaten raw, sliced and sprinkled with lemon juice ) and salchichón ( a long, thin and heavily processed sausage served in slices ).

These two limitations — that the rim is self-supporting laterally and that the rim is thin and ductile enough to easily crush in response to the firing pin impact — limit feasible RF pressures.

These are most commonly overcome by using thin filament pyrometry or soot pyrometry.

These fiber lines, which are “ long, thin strands of glass that carry signals via laser light ,” are more secure than radio, and have become very cheap.

These would have been made with thin sheets of precious metal over a wooden core.

These comprise a thin and patchy cover of glacial till ( or ' boulder clay '), largely a legacy of the last ice age, together with spreads of glacio-fluvial sand and gravel, a product of the eventual deglaciation of the area.

These spines have a thin neck connecting a bulbous protrusion to the main dendrite.

These coatings are long gone and much of the architectural detail is sadly eroded, though detached fragments found in the ruins during consolidation give an impression of the original refined, rather austere, architectural effect.

These coatings may include honey and water ; powdered sugar and water ; cigar ash and water ; and sour cream, buttermilk, and activated charcoal among many others.

These are stable, refractory, and reflective, and they have been proposed as coatings for use in infrared wave mirrors.

These cells differentiate into oligodendrocytes, the cells responsible for the formation of myelin coatings on axons in the central nervous system.

These materials are more structurally rugged than the Reinforced Carbon Composite ( RCC ) used on the space shuttle nose and leading edges, have higher radiative and temperature tolerance properties, and do not suffer from oxidation issues that RCC needs to be protected against with coatings.

These coatings are especially dangerous if one has a history of liver disorders and may also cause neurological damage.

These emulsions find applications in adhesives, paints, paper coating and textile coatings.

These include an extended coatings life due to acetylated wood acting as a more stable substrate for paints and translucent coatings.

These special coatings were oily and could be deposited in layers only a few nanometers thick.

These unique properties make them an excellent choice for marine and offshore coatings, solvent-free industrial floor coatings, railcar and agricultural / construction equipment coatings, portable water coatings, and tank and pipe linings.

These include unsustainably harvested wood, toxic wood-preservatives, portland cement-based mixes, paints and other coatings that off-gas volatile organic compounds ( VOCs ), and some plastics, particularly polyvinyl chloride ( PVC or " vinyl ") and those containing harmful plasticizers or hormone-mimicking formulations.

These coatings are usually based on organic polymers, which allow researchers to add additional functions to such as antimicrobial activity ..

These coatings create a smooth surface which can prevent attachment of larger microorganisms.

These coatings are ecologically inert but have problems with mechanical strength and long term stability.

These coatings are also low friction but are considered by some to be superior to hydrophobic surfaces because they prevent bacteria attachment, preventing biofilm formation.

These coatings are not yet commercially available and are being designed as part of a larger effort by the Office of Naval Research to develop environmentally safe biomimetic ship coatings.

These mirrors, produced by Ovonyx, Inc., are highly curved yet have been shown to have very uniform multilayer coatings and hence have very uniform EUV reflecting properties over their entire surfaces.

These coatings effectively whiten the apparent color of a yellow-tinted diamond, because the two colors are complementary and act to cancel each other out.

These coatings are useful in situations where high transmission through a surface is unimportant or undesirable, but low reflectivity is required.
