A method of nondestructive testing for determining the existence and extent of discontinuities that are open to the surface in the part being inspected.

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT

The earliest method of liquid penetrant testing for cracks consisted of immersing the object to be tested in a bath of light oil, removing the excess oil and then covering the surface of the specimen with chalk. When the specimen was warmed, the oil, previously drawn into the cracks by capillary action would seep out onto the surface, and the blotting action of the chalk would show the outline of the crack.  2, record 2, English, - dye%20penetrant%20test

Les méthodes dites de ressuage sont anciennes. On applique sur la surface à examiner, et après qu'elle ait été nettoyée, un liquide coloré; celui-ci, de par ses qualités propres, s'introduit dans les fissures. Un simple essuyage élimine l'excès de ce liquide coloré, et à l'aide d'un produit révélateur de talc par exemple, on voit les défauts qui émergent en surface.  8, record 2, French, - essai%20de%20ressuage

Carbon Preference Index (CPI). Generally the ratio of abundance of odd over even carbon number paraffins, specifically calculated over the C24-C34 range. Hydrocarbons derived predominantly from terrestrial sources and/or at low maturity exhibit a predominance of odd-numbered alkanes (resulting in a high CPI); this feature disappears with increasing maturation level (CPI approaches 1.0).  5, record 8, English, - carbon%20preference%20index

... case studies show that in ancient detrital sediment the predominance of the original odd n-alkanes of high molecular weight is preserved mainly in relatively shallow shales and silts, where degradation of kerogen has not yet started... With increasing maturity, and odd-even preference(also known as CPI : carbon preference index) of about 5 : 1 in shallow detrital material is reduced to around unity in the zone of oil formation, as a result of thermal degradation and the introduction of new alkanes, which dilutes the original odd-even predominance.  3, record 8, English, - carbon%20preference%20index
