   Rust-Oleum is a manufacturer of protective paints and coatings for home and industrial use. It was founded in 1921 by Robert Fergusson, a sea captain, after he noticed that fish oil spilled on rusty metal decks stopped corrosion from spreading. He soon incorporated whale oil into the formula, although many changes have been made over the years.

4. Rust converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_converter

   Rust converters are chemical solutions or primers that can be applied directly to an iron or iron alloy surface to convert iron oxides into a protective chemical barrier. These compounds interact with iron oxides, especially iron(III) oxide , converting them into an adherent black layer ( black oxide ) that is more resistant to moisture and ...

5. Rust - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust

   Rust is an iron oxide, a usually reddish-brown oxide formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the catalytic presence of water or air moisture. Rust consists of hydrous iron (III) oxides (Fe 2 O 3 ·nH 2 O) and iron (III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO (OH), Fe (OH) 3 ), and is typically associated with the corrosion of refined iron .

6. Oleum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oleum

   Oleum (Latin oleum, meaning oil), or fuming sulfuric acid, is a term referring to solutions of various compositions of sulfur trioxide in sulfuric acid, or sometimes more specifically to disulfuric acid (also known as pyrosulfuric acid). Oleums can be described by the formula ySO 3 ·H 2 O where y is the total molar mass of sulfur trioxide content.

7. Munsell color system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munsell_color_system

   The Munsell color system, showing: a circle of hues at value 5 chroma 6; the neutral values from 0 to 10; and the chromas of purple-blue (5PB) at value 5. In colorimetry, the Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three properties of color: hue (basic color), chroma (color intensity), and value ( lightness ).
