We Got An App For That!

- Glossary of finishing terms, for that day when you need to know what an “anolyte” is, or what it means to have a “thief” in your bath.
- Atomic weight table, just like we had as sophomores in high school.
- Temperature conversion tables so you’ll know that -19°C is also -2.2°F.
- Conversion tables to translate things such as kilopascales to millibars, which of course everyone knows you simply multiply by 10.
- Units of weights and measures to convert grains to scruples in case you are also a pharmacist in addition to being a custom coater.
- Plating specifications in case you do not recall that AMS2485 is calling out a black oxide (jeez!).
- Incompatible chemicals list to make sure you don’t mix chlorine dioxide with ammonia, methane, phosphine or hydrogen sulfide, lest you want to start remodeling very soon.
- Acid base indicators for when you need info on alizarin yellow (10.0 – 12.0, 1 drop 0.1% aq. soln., yellow lilac), but who’s counting?
