How permanent is a permanent marker? People are always getting dirty by accident or on purpose. Permanent Marker stains are difficult to remove if you don’t know which solvents to use. Many people use different household items to remove the stains. My hypothesis was if I were to dab the area where the permanent marker is with rubbing alcohol, then the rubbing alcohol will remove the ink better than the other solvents. This experiment was supposed to prove if vinegar, rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover, or bleach would have removed the stain better off the pieces of fabric. I used two types of permanent marker: Type A and Type B. I used two types of markers to see if different brands would have affected the removal of the ink. Different color dyes also make a difference. So, I used a black permanent marker. Knowing which solvents can remove the ink can lead to the making of permanent marker removals, but most importantly, it can to remove the stain off your favorite shirt.
Permanent markers are made up of three ingredients: resin (polymer), colorant, and carrier, which is a solvent. A colorant is what gives a permanent marker its permanence and color. “Pigments do not fade like dyes nor do pigments bleed through paper.” (Allison, page 1). A dye is a coloring material that is dissolved in a solvent, such as water, to become a water soluble substance. On the other hand, a pigment is an insoluble substance. “Technically, a permanent marker need only meet these two qualifications to be considered permanent: it must use dyes or pigments, and it must adhere to most surfaces and/or be water resistant.” (Devlin, page 1). Solvents are used as the carrier in permanent markers. Resin is a substance that adds the “adhesion...

... surface, one can rub rubbing alcohol onto it and it will vanish. This relates to how bad attitudes and misfortunes aren’t permanent. If one perseveres, one may rid the negative attitude and adapt a positive attitude. This makes one a step closer to moralization and a step closer to self-actualization. To be self-actualized, one must help others fulfill their needs so that others may become self-actualized, as well. Also, positive attitudes are contagious, so one can pass it on to others. This experiment also relates to the quote “What goes around, comes around” because it takes an alcoholic substance to remove an alcoholic substance. That means that if one has a negative attitude and doesn’t change it, a misfortune may be fallen onto them. In conclusion, permanent markers can be removed by alcohol based substances, as negativity can be overcome with perseverance.
People can easily excuse their disputes, violence or sexual offenses simply by saying “I was drunk and didn’t know what happened” and “I lost control of myself.” At the same time, the society will easily accept their excuses because people do expect and believe that drinkers shed their inhibitions under the biological effects of ethanol. But in fact, alcohol’s behavioral effect is more of a cultural influence, and people can totally be in control of themselves even if they are drunk. In Gladwell’s essay, he provides examples of the Camba ethnic group and Italian Americans who are both in integrated drinking cultures and have the habit of drinking heavily, but can control themselves and do not usually have trouble with alcoholism after consuming alcohol because their cultures believe they can. Gladwell also demonstrates the alcohol myopia theory and the related experiment overview to prove that in ambivalent cultures, people who are heavily drunk can remain in complete control of themselves and make rational decisions if they are given proper incentives. “I was drunk and I lost my control” is never a valid excuse for behavioral problems from alcohol; to solve the alcoholism problem, our culture should change its belief of alcohol’s behavioral
The most common stains occur in the organic, oil, ink or rust categories. For other stain categories, many of these poultices still work, however. Consult stain removal charts for unusual stains and removal ingredients.
Just one become only two, which then leads to number three that will be the last… so they say and apparently so will the one after that, after that, and after that until they can physically drink no more. For some, this might happen on their twenty first birthday or only once, but for many people in the world this happens every month, every week, or even every day. “Alcohol is the most commonly used addictive substance in the U.S. 17.6 million people, or one in every 12 adults, suffer from alcohol abuse or dependence” (“Alcohol”). The need and overdose of alcohol is called alcoholism. This addiction causes pain, anger, and loss of control all over the world. One might say, “I can handle myself. I am just fine,” but we all know they are not fine because most of the time they are causing hurt around them. In Jeannette Walls’ memoir, The Glass Castle, her father, Rex Walls, is an example of one of these 17.6 million alcoholics and this disease affects the family in multiple ways.
To start with, the first separation technique we performed on the heterogeneous mixture was filtration. According to our observations of the residue, we believed graphite was one of the substances in the mixture. Graphite, a known ingredient used in pencils, is black or dark grey in color, like the dark spots on the filter paper (Figure 1B), and has the ability to leave marks on paper and other objects. Of the potential components given to us, only graphite possessed the ability to make a mark on other surfaces. This was supported by the smudges left behind on our finger and filter paper (Figure 1A, bottom filter paper) when we touched the residue.
Young people have always flocked to cool trends. Exciting fads that identify a person as exotic and radical. But, does a trend go too far when the effects become permanent? Oberlin students don’t think so. Stick and poke tattoos are a popular fashion choice for a lot of students, and just like regular tattoos, the ink lasts forever.
Glow sticks get their “glow” when two chemicals are mixed together because of a chemical reaction. The chemical reaction is called Chemiluminescence. A Typical glow stick has a plastic tube with a smaller inner tube inside. There are three components, two chemicals and a fluorescent dye which accepts the energy and helps covert to light. There is more than one way to make a glow stick, but the most common uses a solution of hydrogen peroxide and phenyl oxalate ester along with the fluorescent dye. The hydrogen peroxide is in its own compartment away from the other two components until ready to use. The fluorescent dye is what determines the subsequent color of the glow stick when the chemical solutions are combined.
Engineers did not stop there, though. Permeable asphalt that allows for a little expansion incorporates chemistry and makes roadways stronger and less likely to create potholes or breaks in the road. Even the creation of Botts’ painted road markers had to take into account not only the chemistry of the paint, but also some earth science techniques. He decided elevating the road markers to allow water to drain off of them would be the best option, so that the color does not fade. The “Botts’ Dots” are still the design used for road markers today.
PURPOSE: The purpose of the experiment is to determine the specific types of pigments found in water-soluble marker pens by using paper chromatography and water as a solvent.
Wear a pair of latex gloves to protect your skin from the dye. Set a plastic on the floor to catch any dyes in case of spills. The stain from a dye is hard to wash off and may permanently damage your floors.
From the individual perspective, the client was a victim of child abuse, which led to feelings of fear and sadness and a desire to avoid these emotions. Socially, she came from a family of alcoholics giving her easy availability. There was also the pressure of keeping up appearances due to her mother’s status in society. The initial individual consequences of the client’s alcohol use were reinforcing. She felt invincible, warm, and it helped her avoid the thoughts in her head. Everything was right with the world as long as she was intoxicated.
The familial pattern of alcoholism had a lasting impact on me through the awareness that I have a predisposition to alcoholism. In order for me not to become addicted to alcohol, I would need to be vigilant about
The problem of alcohol abuse has been recognized for thousands of years, but only more recently have we begun to see alcohol addiction as a treatable disorder. According to the Classical Disease Model of `Alcoholism,' habitual use of alcohol can be identified as a disease. Webster's Dictionary defines the concept of `disease' as follows: "Any departure from health presenting marked symptoms; malady; illness; disorder." Therefore, as many occurrences of alcohol excess provoke such symptoms, it is somewhat understandable that `alcoholism' is classified as a disease. The Classical Disease Model appears to offer a hopeful option. Treatment and sobriety can allow people to lead fulfilling lives. Adjacent to the notion of alcoholism as personal failure or moral deterioration, the Classical Disease Model appears to be a more desirable concept as it provides a motive for the alcoholic to seek treatment and gain sympathy, minimizing personal guilt. As alcoholism is seen as a progressive and, to an extent, hereditary illness for which those afflicted are not accountable, victims avoid being ostracized from society (Jellinek, 1960). Labeling the problem as a `disease' allows the medical profession to take responsibility for the treatment of alcoholism, which puts the problem in a more favourable light than if it were in the hands of psychologists or social workers, thus detaching the stigma connected with the problem while it is put on a par with other diseases such as diabetes or cancer. However, critics of the Classical Disease Model believe stigma helps reduce alcohol problems and aids the alcoholic. Any effort to reduce the stigma which is faced by the alcoholic will reduce pressures to moderate consumption and could have the additional ...
Organic inks, which are my personal professional preference, are the safest on the market. These types of inks are typically derived from plant matter. Vegan inks are also in the same class as the organic inks as well and are also ranked just as safe as organic inks.Organic inks are also safe to digest. I personally have no plans on digesting tattoo ink, but if I planned on doing so at least I know that it is safe.
Food coloring is typically used in food and drink products. Another term used for food coloring is artificial color. It is added to give the product a certain colored appearance. Food coloring can come as a gel, paste, liquid, or powder. Food coloring contains various chemicals but is often based from petroleum
The problem of alcohol use is very relevant nowadays. Today alcohol consumption characterized by vast numbers in the world. All of society is suffering from this, but primarily jeopardized the younger generation: children, teenagers, young people, and the health of future mothers. Because alcohol is particularly active effect on the body that are not formed, gradually destroying it. The harm of alcohol abuse is evident. It is proved that when alcohol is ingested inside the body, it is carried by blood to all organs and has harmful effect on them until destruction. Systematic use of alcohol develops a dangerous disease such as alcoholism. Alcoholism is dangerous to human health, but it is curable as other diseases. The big problem is that most of the alcohol products which are made in private places contain many toxic substances, defective products often leads to poisoning and even death. All this has negative impact on society and its cultural values.
