What Is Rusting???

Rust is the process of iron (molecules) oxidizing into iron oxide, or rust. Rust is the common name for a very common compound, iron oxide. Iron (or steel) rusting is an example of corrosion, an electrochemical process involving an anode, an electrolyte and a cathode . When metal corrodes, the electrolyte helps provide oxygen to the anode. As oxygen combines with the metal, electrons are liberated. When they flow through the electrolyte to the cathode, the metal of the anode disappears, swept away by the electrical flow or converted into rust.

For iron to tranform into iron oxide, three things are needed: iron, water and oxygen.

When water droplets are gathered on an iron object, two things immediately happen. First, the water combines with carbon dioxide forms a weak carbonic acid, becoming better electrolyte. As the acid is formed and the iron dissolved, some of the water will begin to break down into its component pieces -- hydrogen and oxygen. The free oxygen and dissolved iron bond into iron oxide, in the process freeing electrons. The electrons liberated from the anode portion of the iron flow to the cathode, which may be a piece of a metal less electrically reactive than iron, or another point on the piece of iron itself.

The oxidation needs a transfer medium to occur, such as water. Salt in the water speeds up the oxidation process by acting as a catalyst. The problem with salt is that once the water is gone; the salt lies in wait to restart the forming of rust once more moisture is present.

To protect your vehicle against the effects of rust, Rustblock® offers a unique formula that does more than just cover the metal. The Rustblock® rustproofing product is applied as a high-pressured spray, ensuring protection to your vehicle's most critical areas by penetrating, displacing existing moisture and protecting the many vulnerable crevices of your automobile.

Roasting➫ A  process of heating of sulfide ore to a high temperature in presence of air.

❱ It is a step of the processing of certain ores.

❱ During Roasting, the sulfide is converted to an oxide & sulfur is released as sulfur dioxide.

❱ Advantage of Roasting are:-

[1] Use of both energy and oven temperature can be controlled.

[2] Ovens with transparent doors enable cooking to be observed.

[3] Good quality meat and poultry is tender and succulent when roasted.

[4] Meat juices from the joint are used for gravy and enhance flavour.
