Heat mats provide gentle bottom heat to speed germination and encourage stronger root growth. Heat mats warm the root zone 10-20 degrees above room temperature, making them ideal for starting heat loving crops such as tomatoes, peppers end eggplants from seed. 2, record 1, English, - seedling%20heat%20mat

A defect triggered in the root pass of a weld in the immediate neighbourhood of the contact zone, and which spreads radially between the grains when under stress in service. 1, record 2, English, - delayed%20re%2Dheat%20cracking
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
[Delayed re-heat cracking] only occurs with certain materials such as 321 type stainless steel, as it is caused by hardening of the steel due to fine precipitations of titanium carbide inside the crystalline structure. The hardening causes the plastic deformation capacity to be transferred to the periphery of the grains. For this to happen, the following conditions have to be met : a high operating temperature([higher than] 475°C for 321 steel), a geometrical discontinuity at the weld root, strain hardening at the weld root showing significant shrinkage, heavy local load, which may be due to welding stresses, a defect in the weld root(e. g. a small shrinkage crack). 1, record 2, English, - delayed%20re%2Dheat%20cracking

The colder the temperature the wider the cracks may open. Sudden drops in temperature do not appear to increase the appearance or width of cracks when compared with slow temperature changes. Soil moisture levels do not appear to affect ’frost cracking’ of previously ’frost crack’ injured trees, while wrapping or painting(using a white latex paint) appear to reduce this problem. In addition, wrapping and painting reduce sunscald, a trunk injury which may lead to frost cracking in future years. ’Frost cracks’ start from old wounds resulting from trunk injury, branch stubs, basal sprouts or root death. 1, record 3, English, - frost%20crack

Concretes-are processed products resulting from extracting the natural raw material(jasmine flowers, orris root, labdanum leaves, etc.) with purified petroleum ether or other non-polar solvents. The solvents are then removed by vacuum distillation. The remaining materials are mostly solids or semi-solids at room temperature, as they contain in addition to the essential oil also di-and tri-terpenes, waxes, glycerides, and other similar type materials. 3, record 5, English, - concrete
