Their skin was covered with a thin coating of sweat and dirt which had almost the consistency of a second skin.

In vinyl foam, the big news was the development of techniques for coating fabrics with the material ( for details, see P. 395 ).

After cyclotron irradiation, the coating was dissolved with nitric acid, and then precipitated as the hydroxide using concentrated aqueous ammonia solution.

After the irradiation, the coating was dissolved with nitric acid and then precipitated as the hydroxide using concentrated aqueous ammonia solution.

After the industrial scale production of cadmium started in the 1930s and 1940s, the major application of cadmium was the coating of iron and steel to prevent corrosion ; in 1944, 62 % and in 1956, 59 % of the cadmium in the United States was for coating.

The use of cadmium in applications such as pigments, coatings, stabilizers and alloys declined due to environmental and health regulations in the 1980s and 1990s ; in 2006, only 7 % of total cadmium consumption was used for plating and coating and only 10 % was used for pigments.

In 1857 Lamont DuPont solved the main problem when using cheaper sodium nitrate formulations when he patented DuPont " B " Blasting powder ; after manufacturing grains from press-cake in the usual way, the powder was tumbled with graphite dust for 12 hours, forming a coating on each grain which in this case reduced its ability to pick up moisture.

An account of his invention was published on October 10, 1877, by which date Cros had devised a more direct procedure: the recording stylus could scribe its tracing through a thin coating of acid-resistant material on a metal surface and the surface could then be etched in an acid bath, producing the desired groove without the complication of an intermediate photographic procedure.

The zinc disc was immersed in a bath of chromic acid ; this etched the groove into the disc where the stylus had removed the coating, after which the recording could be played.

Until the middle of the 20th century the paint used for the outer coating could contain high concentrations of lead and this could be ingested when the pencil was sucked or chewed.

No conductive coating was applied: any coating will alter this fragile specimen.

The presence or absence of this coating had no effect on the operation of the tube, and was of no importance to the operators since the face of the tube was covered by the pickup plate.

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

In the 1960s the National Fertilizer Development Center began developing Sulfur-coated urea ; sulfur was used as the principle coating material because of its low cost and its value as a secondary nutrient.
