cementation

listen to the pronunciation of cementation
İngilizce - İngilizce
The precipitation of mineral matter in the pores of a sediment
The impregnation of the surface of a metal with another material
The act of cementing
{n} the uniting by an intermediate substance, a change of metals by a cement
The process of "glue" the appliance/prosthesis on the associated area
This occurs when precipitates of mineral-rich waters, circulating through the pores of sediments, fill the pores and bind the grains together
The process of spontaneous reduction of the ions of a metal by another metal above it in the electromotive series For example, a piece of iron immersed in copper sulfate solution will be immediately covered by a thin film of copper The iron is being anodically dissolved while copper is electroplated on its surface cathodically Also called "metal displacement reaction "
In geology, the hardening and welding of clastic sediments (those formed from preexisting rock fragments) by the precipitation of mineral matter in the pore spaces. It is the last stage in the formation of sedimentary rock. Many minerals may act as cements; the most common is silica (generally quartz), but calcite and other carbonates also occur, as do iron oxides, barite, anhydrite, zeolites, and clay minerals
The process of precipitation or growth of a binding material around grains or fragments of rocks In clastic rocks, cementation is necessary before the rock framework can become consolidated Chemically the cementing material may be the same as, or different from, the host rock
Encapsulation in cement or concrete Method used to confine certain types of radioactive waste, either solid (heterogeneous cementation) or liquid (homogeneous cementation)
A process which consists in surrounding a solid body with the powder of other substances, and heating the whole to a degree not sufficient to cause fusion, the physical properties of the body being changed by chemical combination with powder; thus iron becomes steel by cementation with charcoal, and green glass becomes porcelain by cementation with sand
The act or process of cementing
the spontaneous process of deposition of a metal on the surface of a more electroactive metal (e g Ag+ + Cu(s) --> Ag(s) + Cu+)
{i} reinforcement with mortar, act of cementing; process of being cemented
