The fine particles to which any dry substance is reduced by pounding, grinding, or triturating, or into which it falls by decay; dust.
To reduce to fine particles; to pound, grind, or rub into a powder; to comminute; to pulverize; to triturate.
Finely divided solid; particles are smaller than one millimeter in maximum dimension. It is metallic, ceramic or a polymer; these can be blended in infinite combinations. An important characteristic is the relatively high surface-to-volume ratio of the particles which exhibit behavior that is intermediate between that of a solid and a liquid. Powders will flow under gravity to fill containers or die cavities, so in this sense behave like liquids. They are compressible like gas. Powders are easily shaped, with the desirable behavior of a solid after processing.
Fine powder used on during the printing process to prevent offsetting.
Light, dry snow; great skiing condition.
White freshly fallen fluffy snow, which has not yet been flattened.
Colored glass that has been pulverized into a fine powder.
A fine, dry, light snow. Referred to as "Champagne Powder" in Steamboat because it is lighter and drier than the usual powder.
a solid substance in the form of tiny loose particles; a solid that has been pulverized
make into a powder by breaking up or cause to become dust; "pulverize the grains"
a substance composed of finely dispersed solid particles
Synonym for particulate solid, particularly when the particles of the solid are very fine
Powder: Thermal spray material manufactured in to finely divided particles. When explicitly blended for thermal spraying these powders generally fall between an upper limit of 125 microns and 5 microns.
A solid made up of tiny particles or pieces.
A preparation in the form of fine particles for medicinal use. Finely divided powders are usually intended to be suspended or dissolved in water or mixed with soft foods (eg, applesauce) prior to administration.
A fine grain mesh 80- 120 grade, (the consistency of sugar to powder sugar)
Asolid substance in the form of many tiny particles; a solid that has been pulverized.
new fallen snow that hasn't sintered or metamorphosed
dry material made up of fine particles (fluffy light snow that drifts) Precipitation-- water or the amount of water that falls to the earth as hail, mist, rain, sleet, or snow
Particles of matter characterized by a small size, less than 1 mm in size. Most PIM powders are below 20 micrometer in maximum size.
Small solid particles that range in size from 1 to 1000 um Titanium powder metallurgy is a growing processing procedure that incorporates both forging and near-net shape technologies.
Glass that has been crushed to a size that resembles wheat flour.
A solid reduced to dust by pounding, crushing, or grinding.
Transparent or opaque glass in powder form. When picked up on hot glass and blown, the particles separate and melt to form a fine, airy layer of color. Multiple layers of powder coat a piece with color. Powder also creates unique interior effects when coated with another layer of transparent glass.
A powder is a dry, bulk solid composed of a large number of very fine particles that may flow freely when shaken or tilted. Powders are a special sub-class of granular materials, although the terms powder and granular are sometimes used to distinguish separate classes of material. In particular, powders refer to those granular materials that have the finer grain sizes, and that therefore have a greater tendency to form clumps when flowing.
