acrylic nails
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Nails based on mixing a combination of liquid and powders | acrylic nails |
| methacrylate | based on a subcategory of acrylic |
| enhancements are created by combining monomer liquid with | polymer powder |
| Natural hair bristles absorb and hold monomer like a | reservoir |
| when monomer liquid absorbs polymer powder the chemical interaction is called | bead of product |
| a chemical reaction made with polymer powder | polymerization |
| polymer powder is blended with pigments and colorants to produce | shades |
| the additives used to speed up the chemical reaction of monomers | catalyst |
| what is benzoyl peroxide used for in nail enhancements | to start chain reaction of curing the nail |
| mix ratio | the ratio of polymer powder & liquid monomer to create a bead |
| nail enhancements become brittle and discolor | too much powder in a mix ratio |
| surface moisture and natural oils left on the nail plate | block adhesion |
| acrylic nails to reach ultimate strength must wait | 24 to 48 hours |
| nail extensions made from a form of plastic | nail tips |
| cyanoacrylate monomers | nail adhesives |
| what is used to protect eyes from flying objects | safety eyewear |
| special container used to hold monomer and powder | dappen dish |
| masks designed to prevent inhalation but offer no protection from | vapors |
| placed under free edge o form a nail enhancement | nail form |
| the best brushes for nail enhancement are made of | sable hair |
| what part of the brush is used on the free edge | middle portion of brush |
| second bead put on natural nail should be what consistency | medium |
| acrylics that are too close to the skin will | lift |
| tapping with a handle brush are hard enough to file when they make what kind of sound | clicking |
| applying product on sidewalls and free edge the product must be | thin |
| full and proper rebalance of nail should be done how often | 2 to 3 weeks |
| when rebalancing a nail it is | reduced in thickness |
| excessive nipping of loose nail enhancements will cause | lifting |
| removal of acrylics should be soaked for how many minutes | 20 to 30 minutes |
| removing softened nail enhancements use a wooden or metal pusher and gently | push off the softened nail |
| odorless acrylics are used with what kind of ratio | dry mix ratio |
| when mixing odorless product use what kind of motion | multiple circular motions |
| the tacky layer in odorless products is called | inhibition layer |
| tacky layer may be removed by alcohol,acetone or | filing |
| in a rebalance procedure the nail is thinned, the apex is removed, and the entire nail enhancement is | reduced in thickness |
| placing enhancement products too close to the skin may cause | lifting |
| when using acrylic products, the best brushes are composed of | sable hair |
| specialized containers used to hold monomer and powder to minimize contamination and evaporation are | dappen dishes |
| polymer powder is made using a special chemical reaction called | polymerization |
| as monomer liquid absorbs polymer powder, the chemical interaction produces a small | bead of product |
| a nail supply that is placed under the free edge to extend a nail enhancement | nail form |
| when applying enhancement moisture and oil will | block adhesion |
| brittle and discolored nails are because | too much powder in a mix ratio |
| the amount of polymer and and liquid monomer is called | mix ratio |
| catalyst is | an additive to speed up chemicals |
| initiator added to polymer powder | benzoyl peroxide |
| free edges must be what to be natural looking | thin |
| what part of the brush do you use | the middle portion of the brush |
| polymer powder makes a special chemical reaction called | polymerization |
| when monomer liquid absorbs polymer powder it produces a | bead |
| odorless products harden more | slowly and makes to tacky called inhibition layer |
| hard nail enhancements make what sound | a clicking sound |
