Question 1: Gas
Answer:
A state of matter different from liquid or solid. Gases are not formed by evaporation of liquids, as are vapors. Gases must not be confused with vapors or fumes.
Question 2: Adhesive
Answer:
An agent that causes two surfaces to stick together.
Question 3: Adhesion
Answer:
A chemical reaction resulting in two surfaces sticking together.
Question 4: Simple Polymer Chains
Answer:
The result of a long chain of monomers that are attached from head to tail.
Question 5: Overexposure
Answer:
Prolonged, repeated, or long - term exposure that can cause sensitivity.
Question 6: Overfiling
Answer:
Excessively roughing up the nail plate.
Question 7: Cross - Linker
Answer:
A monomer that joins together different polymer chains.
Question 8: Photoinitiators
Answer:
A chemical that in combination with resins and the proper curing lamp causes UV gels to cure.
Question 9: Catalyst
Answer:
Substances that speed up chemical reactions.
Question 10: Cyanoacrylates
Answer:
A specialized acrylic monomer (non - cross - linking) that has excellent adhesion to the natural nail plate and polymerizes in seconds; used to make wraps and nail adhesives.
Question 11: Polymerization
Answer:
Also known as curing or hardening; a chemical reaction that creates polymers.
Question 12: Oligomer
Answer:
Short chain of monomers that is not long enough to be considered a polymer.
Question 13: Thermal Initiators
Answer:
Ingredients that use heat as an energy source for starting chemical reactions, such as polymerizing monomers into polymer.
Question 14: Methacrylates
Answer:
A type of acrylic monomer (cross - linking) that has very good adhesion to the natural nail plate and polymerizes in minutes; used to make all liquid / powder systems and at least one type of UV gel.
Question 15: Acrylic
Answer:
The name for an entire family of chemicals used to make all types of nail enhancements and adhesives, including wraps, glues, UV gels, and liquid / powder systems.
Question 16: Chemical
Answer:
A substance obtained by a chemical process or producing a chemical effect.
Question 17: Polymers
Answer:
A substance formed by combining many small molecules (monomers) or oligomers, usually in extremely long, chainlike structures.
Question 18: Nail Primer
Answer:
A substance that improves adhesion; used on the natural nail prior to product application to assist in adhesion.
Question 19: Methyl Methacrylate Monomer (MMA)
Answer:
A substance in wide use around the world for many applications, such as bone repair cement for implantation into the body.
Question 20: Evaporate
Answer:
A change from liquid to vapor form.
Question 21: Monomers
Answer:
A molecule that can polymerize to form long polymer chains.
Question 22: UV Stabilizers
Answer:
Ingredients that control color stability and prevent sunlight from causing fading or discoloration.
Question 23: Plasticizers
Answer:
Ingredients used to keep nail enhancement products flexible.
Question 24: Coatings
Answer:
Products, including nail polish, top coats, artificial nail enhancements, and adhesives, that cover the nail plate with a hard film.
Question 25: Acrylates
Answer:
Specialized acrylic monomers (cross - linking) that have good adhesion to the natural nail plate and polymerize in minutes. Used to make UV gels.
Question 26: Corrosive
Answer:
A substance capable of seriously damaging skin, eyes, or other soft tissues on contact. Some corrosives have delayed action (minutes); others affect the skin almost instantly.
