The step in the papermaking process that brings the moisture content of paper to approximately 5%. This is done by moving the web of paper around a series of heated iron drums in the dry end of the paper machine.
Chemistry. The removal of most of the water from a substance (usually 92-95%), often through heat exposure. the removal of solvents other than water from a substance.
Removal of moisture (water) from degummed or neutralized and washed oils before storage or bleaching filtration, by spraying the heated oil into a vacuum vessel and evaporating the water.
To remove the moisture from; make dry
A film-processing step of removing water from photographic material.
The step in the papermaking process that brings the moisture content of paper to approximately 5%. Moving the web of paper around a series of heated iron drums in the dry end of the paper machine does this. see also dry end, papermaking.
During the processing, the plate absorbs solvent which must be removed by drying which is carried out in an oven at a temperature of 60°C (14060°C (140°F)).
Converting a wet coating to dry film by removal of solvents at ambient or elevated temperatures.
To change the physical state of an adhesive on an adherend surface by evaporation of the solvent components of the adhesive composition; drying can also be accomplished by absorption of the solvent components on the adherend surface.
The process of removing a solvent such as moisture from an object.
The removal of all solvents or water from an ink, paint or coating. Drying can be accomplished by the air with or without the application of heat.
Thermal separation process for removing volatile components from solid material by vaporization.
Removes the liquid or solvent, often through heat, so the material is dry without changing the makeup.
The process of change of a coating from the liquid to the solid state by evaporation of solvent, chemical reaction of the binding medium, or a combination of these processes. When drying takes place during exposure to air at normal temperatures, it is called 'air-drying'; if it can be accelerated by the application of a moderate degree of heat it is called 'Force-drying' (or Low-bake), as distinct from High-bake. Alternate Term(s): Binder, Air-drying, Force-drying, Stoving, Low-bake, High-bake
The process of winding the web of newly formed paper through a series of heated metal drums to bring the moisture content of the sheet down to approximately 5%.
Drying is a method of food preservation that works by removing water from the food, which prevents the growth of microorganisms and decay. Drying food using the sun and wind to prevent spoilage has been known since ancient times. Water is usually removed by evaporation (air drying, sun drying, smoking or wind drying) but, in the case of freeze-drying, food is first frozen and then water is removed by sublimation.
Technically, Drying is a mass transfer process resulting in the removal of water moisture or moisture from another solvent, by evaporation from a solid, semi-solid or liquid (hereafter product) to end in a solid state, provided there is a source of heat, and sink of the vapor thus produced. In the most common case, a gas stream, e.g., air, applies the heat by convection and carries the vapor as humidity. Other possibilities are vacuum drying, where the source of heat may be by conduction or radiation (or microwaves) and the vapor is removed by the vacuum system.
