To clean aluminum buildup on a carbide cutter, just drop the cutter in caustic soda (lye) and water solution and the aluminum will dissolve.

I thought of that, but a secondary reaction with the NaOH is with cobalt forming: Co(OH)2 which is a really nasty substance, especially in solution. It is exceptionally problematic to dispose of as it is toxic to aquatic life and has a long half life. For humans it is toxic in almost every way - Class 4.

Isn't the process for cyanoacrylates a hardening process started at a nucleation site rather than a drying process? Once it gets started, it just continues, albeit a bit slow in the absence of more nuceation sites. Hmm, feels like I'll be going down a rabbit hole on wikipedia one of these days...

I was not aware that it was a nucleation mediated reaction. If so that is really interesting and the repercussions are significant.

Moisture diffuses through ~0.1mm of polymer on the time scale of a few hours. In addition, when flexible polymers are stretched they do not stretch uniformly - microscopic channels open up between the polymer chains further increasing the rate of moisture diffusion. So stretching electrical tape will not be very effective as you find. Aluminum foil would help, but putting the glue in the freezer, as suggested in another comment, should be much better solution.
@DudleyToolwright22 күн бұрын
Thanks for the technical perspective. I was not aware that water diffusion could happen so easily in stretchy polymers.
@johnmatthewson673323 күн бұрын
Holes get bigger when a material is heated. Simple conceptual proof. Draw a circle on a plate of material. Does the circle get bigger or smaller? Bigger of course because the whole plate is expanding. Now remove the material inside the circle. The hole expands when heated. Further generalizing this idea, the holes inside a porous material have an effective expansion coefficient equal to that of the surrounding solid material.
@DudleyToolwright22 күн бұрын
Thanks for the clarification. I was aware of the expansion caused shrinkage, but the real killer here is that with some plastics like PLA, the distortion is semi-permanent.

In steels.. You can't get high hardness and still get good toughness. You can only get one or the other or somewhere in the middle/ a compromise of each. That's just how it is; they are a direct trade off. If the hardness was up in the 60's.. it would be brittle and snap off the tips easier. If you make them tough and flexible, then they can bend out of shape easier. It's just like a Katana, where you want the edge or tip to be hard, but the rest of the shank to be flexible. It's not an easy balance to get right. I bet your other Allens were on the harder side, which is why they twisted off the ball ends.. but if they make them too soft, then it will just round over and strip..
