Orphan date February 2009 No footnotes date November 2010 UV pinning is the process of applying a dose of low intensity ultraviolet UV light to a UV curable ink UV ink . The light s wavelength s must be correctly matched to the ink s photochemistry photochemical properties. As a result, the ink droplets move to a higher viscosity state, but stop short of full curing chemistry cure . This is also referred to as the gel ling of the ink. UV pinning is typically used in UV Inkjet printer ink jet applications e.g. the printing of label s, the printing of electronics , and the fabrication of 3 D microstructure s . Purpose UV pinning enhances the management of drop size and image integrity, minimizing the unwanted mixing of drops and providing the highest possible image quality and the sharpest colour rendering.

File UV Filter 6159.jpg thumb 300px An L39 UV filter with a 55mm filter thread See also UV water disinfection UV filters are individual compounds or mixtures to prevent ultraviolet UV light from getting through. UV filters are used in sunscreens to protect skin or in photography to reduce the level of ultraviolet light that strikes the recording medium. A typical UV filter in photography is Transparency optics transparent to visible light while filtering out shorter ultraviolet wavelengths. Historically, some photographic films were sensitive to UV light, which caused haziness or fogginess, particularly with a blue hue. However, newer photographic film and digital camera s are highly insensitive to UV wavelengths. UV filters are sometimes referred to as L37 or L39 filters, depending on the wavelength of light that they filter out an L37 filter removes ultraviolet light with a wavelength shorter than 370nm, whereas an L39 filter eliminates light with a wavelength shorter than 390nm. Many photographers still use UV filters as protection for their lenses, due to their low cost and lack of effect on the exposure of the shot.

UV light stabilizers are used frequently in plastics , including cosmetics and films . The primary function is to protect the substance from the long term degradation effects from light , most frequently ultraviolet light. Different UV stabilizers are utilized depending upon the substrate, intended functional life, and sensitivity to UV degradation. UV stabilizers, such as benzophenone s, work by absorbing the UV radiation and preventing the formation of free radical s. Depending upon substitution, the UV absorption spectrum is changed to match the application. Concentrations normally range from 0.05 to 2 , with some applications up to 5 .

Unreferenced date December 2008 In theoretical physics , it is usually possible to organize physical phenomena according to the energy scale or distance scale . The theory of renormalization group is based on this paradigm. The short distance, ultraviolet UV physics does not directly affect qualitative features of the long distance, infrared IR physics, and vice versa. This separation of scales holds in quantum field theory . However, in its generalizations such as noncommutative field theory and quantum gravity string theory in particular it is expected that interrelations between UV and IR physics start to emerge. In many cases, these interrelations, UV IR mixing , may be demonstrated explicitly.

Cleanup date March 2008 Confusing date March 2008 UV B lamps are lamps that emit a spectrum of ultraviolet light of 290 320 nanometers. It is also called the biological spectrum because the body is sensitive to that spectrum. Types of UVB lamps There are two types of UVB lamps Broad band and Narrow band. The Broad band lamps give 290 320 nano meter having a peak wavelength of 306 nano meter Narrow band lamps give a 311 313 nano meter, having a peak wavelength of 312 nano meter. The Broadband UVB lamps have a stronger medical effect on the skin than the Narrowband UVB lamps, and they are more cost effective. Treating skin diseases UVB light cures Psoriasis, Vitiligo and some other skin diseases. A small UVB lamp can treat small area of the skin, while in clinics and hospitals there are full body cabins that treat the whole body. There are thousands of dermatology clinics in the world that treat with UVB lamps. Many people that suffer from Psoriasis or other skin disease hold a UVB lamp and use it at home. The main diseases that are treated with UVB lamps are psoriasis , vitiligo when the skin loses the color , lichen planus sort of skin cancer and atopic dermatitis eczema . Increasing Vitamin D3 When the skin is exposed to UVB light, the Cholesterol in the skin is transferred into Vitamin D3. In general the skin does not need much of the UVB energy to generate Vitamin D3 vitamin D sub 3 sub , and 15 minutes of strong sunshine every day are enough. In Northern Europe an countries pregnant women receive UVB light in clinics so that their babies will have more vitamin D sub 3 sub when born. UVB light does not tan the skin very much, compared to UVA lamps that are used in tanning bed s. Animals need to UVB light for Vitamin D3 and strong bones. In the Zoo there are UVB lamps for reptile s. Reptile keepers within the home environment can purchase UVB UVA emitting bulbs from pet stores to provide their reptile s with the required amount of UVB UVA they need to generate vitamin ... more details
