means that the paper has had calcium carbonate or magnesium bicarbonate added to the paper during manufacture, to inhibit the formation and migration of acids Buffered paper usually has a pH level of 8 5
A term used in the paper industry indicating that an alkaline filler has been added during the paper-making process, which makes the paper acid-free It also increases the smoothness of the paper surface, improves brightness and opacity, and helps prevent ink from feathering The alkaline reserve in the paper helps absorb any acid found in items mounted on it (such as a birthday card), thereby protecting the photos from possible corruption from the acidic item
Buffered means adding logic, particularly drivers, to a SIMM or DIMM to increase the output current Buffering is used to overcome signal attenuation due to capacitive loading Modules that are "buffered" usually have small buffer chips mounted on them
{s} lessened, eased, made less severe; protected, shielded; (about aspirin) containing an antacid agent; treated with a buffer (Chemistry)
A term used to describe a material to which slightly water-soluble acid or base has been added in order to stabilize the pH In paper this is an alkaline substance, such as calcium carbonate, which is used to reduce the quantity of acids that may build up as a result of the degradation of paper fiber or acid absorption from the environment
A process of adding alkaline substances to materials to counteract acids that may form in the future The most common buffers used are magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate
