- the process of combining with water; usually reversible
- (hydrated) hydrous: containing combined water (especially water of crystallization as in a hydrate)
- (Hydrated) Hydrate is a term used in inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry to indicate that a substance contains water. The chemical state of the water varies widely between hydrates, some of which were so labeled before their chemical structure was understood.
- (hydrated) Combined chemically with water
- (Hydrated) A dry chemical that is combined with water in its crystal structure. Hydrated products are more stable than anhydrous products.
- (hydrated) HAVE ENOUGH WATER INSIDE.
- (Hydrating) Restoring or maintaining normal proportion of fluid in the body or skin.
- (Hydrating) To supply water in order to restore or maintain fluid balance
- (Hydrating) adding moisture to the skin.
- The chemical combination of water into a substance.
- process of take up of water by the fibres through crushing and fibrillation during beating.
- The condition of having adequate fluid in the body tissue.
- A fluid intake sufficient to yield a daily urinary output of at least two liters in adults and the maintenance of a neutral or, preferably, slightly alkaline urine are desirable.
- A chemical reaction, usually in weathering, which adds water or OH to a mineral structure.
- The provision or restoration of water to bodily tissue. Death from dehydration is a common killer of children who suffer from severe, prolonged diarrhea.
- a process of chemical weathering. Some minerals take up water and form weaker compounds e.g. anhydrite + water = gypsum which more readily dissolves. The expansion can also put physical stress on the rock.
- When a molecule has water molecules attached to it.
- A term that refers to the capacity of flour to absorb water. Hydration is usually stated as a baker's percent, or ratio, that is equal to the weight of water divided by the weight of flour used in a recipe. ...
- In concrete, mortar, grout and plaster, the chemical reaction between hydraulic cement and water in which new compounds with strength-producing properties are formed. The hydration reaction is exothermic, or generates heat. see heat of hydration.
- Chemical reaction involving the addition of water. In portland cement, the chemical compound constituents undergo a series of chemical reactions in the presence of water that cause it to harden (or set).
- The chemical and/or mechanical treatment of fibers (other than cooking and bleaching) prior to sheet formation. Such treatment increases the ability of the fibers to absorb water and develops the bonding characteristics.
- Water molecules are attracted to ions in water solution and coordinate around the ions, forming a sphere of hydration.
- The process by which one maintains the correct water ratio in one s body (e.g., by drinking water)
- the ratio of liquid ingredients (primarily water) to flour in the dough. A dough with 500g of flour and 340g of water has a hydration of 68% (340/500).
- The process of combining quicklime with water to create hydrated lime or calcium hydroxide. CaO + H2O = Ca(OH)2. This process is called 'slaking'. Due to the extremely hydrophilic nature of quicklime hydration is a volatile process which gives off large amounts of heat. ...
