because it has no (or least) amount of dye in it which will help it burn slower. My prediction is based on the fact that white candles are most given in emergencies(such as when they light goes out) so they are meant to last long and they are made with pure ingredients that contain no dye. Background Research Colour As candles are made with different types of dyes, I decided to find and research the most common types of dye used in candles. After researching I found out that their…

color” meaning you can’t find it in the soil. Only in rare cases of mining deep into the earth can we hope to extract some clue.

Blue was known to be a sacred color and was expensive and extremely valuable until its mass production. We can associate this with the fact that the color blue is connected to…

water is really fast to dissolve materials because with it's own hotness, it melts materials really fast it also depends on how hot the water is if it is really hot than it can be really fast and if its warm it might just take more time than the really hot water. Cold water is like liquid ice and that should be really cold and that’s why it takes more time for it to dissolve materials slower. Pigment is a word that means color. Some objects lose their color faster than others. Some pigments…

Not so long ago, May 1, 2014 Kevin who is a research scientist, studied many beauty products like a bar of soap in the shower. This time he did research on science behind tattoos. He found out that present days’ companies used pigments that are made of ion oxides (rust) that account for the black, red and browns. The formulas are Iron Oxide Red: Fe2O3, Iron Oxide Black: FeO · Fe2O3, and Iron Oxide Yellow: FeO(OH). For more exotic colors, heavy metals were used such as cadmium (red, orange,…

Characterizing the IR Reflecting Properties of Pigments for Cool Roofs Introduction The sun energy reaches earth as UV visible and Infra-red radiation. UV radiation is an invisible part of electromagnetic spectrum. Only 5 % UV from sun reached the surface is play the major role to the degradation of coating .Visible light wave (295-400 nm) seen by human eyes. Around 50% of the suns energy occurs in this region which gives the perception of colour.45 % of total solar energy is in IR region…
