Monomer Liquid & Polymer Powder (Nail Encancements)

QuestionAnswer
Monomer liquid and polymer powder nail enhancements are lucrative services. True
Catalysts are added to the polymer powder and used to control the set or curing time. False
Acid-based nail primer is corrosive to the skin and potentially dangerous to eyes. True
Hand sanitizers can be used in place of hand washing. False
Overly large brushes can hold excessive amounts of liquid and alter the mix ratio of the powder and liquid. True
Primers and liquids should be stored together in a cool, well-lit area. False
Sculptured nails are created by combining monomer liquid with: polymer powder
As monomer liquid absorbs polymer powder, the chemical interaction produces a small: bead of product
Polymer powder is made using a special chemical reaction called: polymerization
When using the brush to shape the enhancement on the free edge area, use: the middle portion of the brush
For natural-looking nails, product application near the eponychium, sidewalls, and free edge must be: thin
Additives designed to speed up the chemical reactions of monomers are: catalysts
The initiator added to polymer powder to start the chain reaction of curing the nail enhancement is: benzoyl peroxide
The amount of polymer powder and liquid monomer used to create a product bead is called the: mix ratio
Too much powder in a mix ratio causes nail enhancements to cure incorrectly and become: brittle and discolored
When applying nail enhancements, surface moisture and natural oils left on the nail plate will: block adhesion
A nail supply that is placed under the free edge to extend a nail enhancement is a: nail form
Pre-formed nail extensions made from ABS or tenite acetate plastic are: nail tips
Special containers used to hold monomer liquid and polymer powder that minimize contamination and evaporation are: dappen dishes
Masks are designed to prevent inhalation of excessive dust, but they offer no protection from: vapors
Proper maintenance of nail enhancements should be done every: 2 to 3 weeks
Use of a nipper to clip away loosen nail enhancement product can damage the nail plate and perpetuate: lifting
When lightly tapped with the handle of a brush, hard nail enhancements make: a clicking sound
During removal, monomer liquid and polymer powder enhancements should be soaked for: 20 to 30 minutes
When removing softened nail enhancement products, use a wooden or metal pusher and: gently push off the softened nail
Odorless products harden more slowly, which creates the tacky layer called the: inhibition layer
Where the natural nail grows beyond the finger and becomes the free edge Stress area
Starts a chain reaction that leads to the creation of very long polymer chains Initiators
Area of the nail that has all the strength Arch
One unit called a molecule Monomer
