| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Are all odorless monomers vapor free? | No |
| What is a common reason for enhancement breakdown? | Over-filing |
| Nail products that improve artifical nail are called: | Primers |
| Define volatile solvent. | One that evaporates quickly |
| A toxic product is only bad or poisonous when: | It is handled improperly |
| Nail polish ______ because they do not contain ccross-linked polymers. | Chip easily |
| Keratin is a(n): | Protein polymer |
| How is toxicity determined? | Overexposure |
| What are corrosive nail primers called? | Acid primers |
| Overfiling (thinning) the nail Platte causes what? | 1. Free edge product separations and breaking 2. Allergic reactions and infections under the nail plate 3. Painful friction burns and nail chipping |
| Define monomer. | Individual molecules that join together to make a polymer chain |
| How do nail polishes, top coats and base coat harden? | They are evaporation |
| What causes two surfaces top stick together? | Adhesives |
| Which of the following aid(s) in good adhesion? | 1. Proper technique 2. High quality products 3. Washing the hands and scubbing the nail plate |
| What is the most common result of improper nail preparation? | Nail lifting |
| The sticky surface on UV gels is caused by: | Oligomers |
| UV stabilizers | Controls color stability ands prevents sunlight from causing fading or discoloration |
| Monomer | A molecule that can polymerize to form long polymer chains |
| Meth methacrylate monomer MMA | A substance in wide use around the world for meant applications, sick as bone repair cement for implantation into the body |
| Acrylates | Specialized acrylic monomers cross linking, that have goad aadhesion to the natural nail plate and polymerize in minutes. Used to make UV gels. |
| Thermal initiators | Ingredients that use heat add an engery source for starting chemical reactions, such as ppolymerizng monomers into polymers |
| Nail primer | A substance that improves adhesion; used on the natural maul prior to pproduc application to assist in adhesion |
| Methacrylate | A type of acrylic monomer cross linking, that had very good adhesion to the natural nail plate and polymerizes in minutes; Izard to make all liquid/powder systems and at least one type of UV gels |
| Acrylics |
