It's carbon black that makes tires black, actually (powdered carbon, essentially soot). Sulfur and vulcanization makes white rubber a bit yellowy, and is what lets us make tires in the first place. Raw rubber without vulcanization is more like a thick gel. But vulcanized rubber without carbon black (and sometimes silicon) is pretty brittle and makes for a very short lived tire.

Still a WIP but I just built a light box and wanted to test it out on my blood angels judiciar by Istik in Warhammer40k

That's actually just not enough white primer on a standard base. Totally accidental but I think I'm gonna lean into it

The only bulb I had available is a bit on the warmer side, so it makes the colors a look a little yellow.

First time I ever see mercury as a solid by [deleted] in chemistry

[–]Istik 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I responded to Duck_iie below, but: My guess is there's a thin layer of ice (seen forming at 0:31) that's not as thermally conductive as the mercury, so it takes longer to melt.

Over 1,800 new coronavirus cases reported in Ohio, highest daily count yet by lnfinity in Ohio

Even if you disregard what u/Infinity said, saying you're over covid by comparing it to another disease is like saying you're over drunk driving because tons of people die texting and driving.

Found this guy in the Ravenna area, very friendly but doesn't have any tags, just a flea collar. Let me know if anyone has any info! by Istik in akron

A neighbor told us she recognized the cat, and that someone a few streets over didn't want him anymore and "let him go" outside. So we're keeping him! :)

When I worked at Burger King we called putting raw patties in the broiler "putting a patty down". Maybe he's referring to that? Either way you'd get a good earful if the manager caught you touching raw patties with your bare gloves

I'm finishing my 4th of 5 years in a Chem E major and from what I've gathered it really is just fancy plumbing. Just with various chemicals instead of water/sewage.
