Gaskets for Glazing. Structural gaskets, made of preformed and cured elastomeric materials, may be used instead of sash for some applications to hold glass in places. Gaskets are extruded in a single strip, molded into the shape of the window perimeter and installed against the glass and window frames. A continuous locking strip of harder elastomer is then forced into one side of the gasket as a final sealing component. Fit and compression of the gasket determine weathertightness. With proper installation, calking is not ordinarily required; but should it be necessary, sealants are available that are compatible with the material of which the gasket is made.

The term "Refractance Window" relates to the dryer's principle of operation. Water transmits infrared energy through conduction and evaporation but little radiation. If the water's surface is covered by a transparent medium such as plastic, evaporation and its associated heat loss is blocked and only conduction occurs. But when a moisture-laden material is placed on the plastic surface, a "window" for passage of infrared energy is created at the point where the material contacts the plastic where the plastic bears on the water. Therefore, all three methods of heat transfer, radiation, conduction and convection occur for exceptionally effective heat transfer. As the material dries, however, the infrared "window" is closed since moisture no longer contacts the plastic, and the only heat transfer taking place is by conduction. 1, record 10, English, - refractance%20window%20drying

... the effect of weather stripping is similar to insulation in that it reduces the heat loss or heat gain of a structure and also conserves energy. Weather stripping is available in many forms, such as foam rubber or foam plastic strips, which are resilient and compressible.

Every element absorbs X rays in a distinctive manner. At X-ray wavelengths between 23 and 44 angstroms, oxygen-and therefore water-is much more transparent to radiation than is organic material. This fact opens up the possibility of discerning features through water, which makes up about three quarters of the mass of most cells. This part of the X-ray spectrum, called the water window, is quite useful for biological microscopy. 1, record 12, English, - water%20window

The material most commonly chosen for insulating around windows is injected foam. Injected foam has the advantage of providing good thermal resistance and resistance to the passage of air and water vapour, thus allowing installation in one stage using a single product... However, the foam has to be applied with great care, because the pressure created by overfilling may distort the frame and cause the window to jam or the glass to break. Care must also be taken to ensure that the foam used is compatible with the materials with which it is in contact, such as the window frame and caulking products. 1, record 13, English, - injected%20foam

On utilise généralement de la mousse à injecter pour isoler l'espace de calage des fenêtres. La mousse à injecter a l'avantage de fournir une bonne résistance thermique ainsi qu'une bonne résistance au mouvement de l'air et de la vapeur d'eau, ce qui permet une installation en une seule étape, ne nécessitant qu'un seul produit [...] Toutefois, la mousse doit être mise en place avec beaucoup de soin puisque la pression créée par un remplissage excessif peut faire gauchir le cadre et bloquer la fenêtre ou briser le vitrage. De plus, on doit s'assurer que la mousse utilisée est compatible avec les matériaux avec lesquels elle est en contact, tels que le cadre de la fenêtre et les produits de calfeutrage. 1, record 13, French, - mousse%20%C3%A0%20injecter

Les mousses de polyuréthane sont aussi proposées sous forme liquide, en récipients ou en bombes aérosols, pour injection ou projection sous pression : leur expansion en mousse et leur polymérisation s'effectuent au contact de l'air; on les utilise en calfeutrement de joints et de passages de canalisations ainsi qu'en isolation par injection dans des emplacements difficiles d'accès. 4, record 13, French, - mousse%20%C3%A0%20injecter

Porous absorbent. When the mineral fibers like glass fiber or rock fiber are exposed in air for a long time, they begin to effloresce into dust. By that reason, others generally install for packing with vinyl films decreasing the absorption effect. But we install the mineral plastic particles of strong durability with PVF film of chemical fiber, and therefore, our products have the features of an excellent durability as well as the best absorption effect. 2, record 14, English, - rock%20fibre

Dans les systèmes isolés avec de la fibre de roche ou de la fibre cellulosique, la résistance au feu est plus grande parce que ces isolants résistent plus longtemps à la chaleur.
