Anime

== Description ==
A name that has been given to several copal resins, usually soft, low, quality resins containing embedded insects or vegetation. Most often, anime refers to the resin obtained from the Hymenaea courbaril trees of South America. Confusingly, the name 'gum anime' has also been used for the hard, semi-fossilized, high-quality Zanzibar copal. Anime has been used for making varnishes and scenting pastilles.

== Synonyms and Related Terms ==
goma anime (Esp.); animé; gum anime; anime copal; animi; Zanzibar gum; gum Zanzibar
== Risks ==
Combustible, burning with a bright flame and dense smoke.
== Physical and Chemical Properties ==
Usually soluble in alcohols. Most copals fluoresce white in short-wave UV light.

Anion exchange agent

== Description ==
Any of several synthetic ion exchange resins that are designed to capture larger anions and release hydroxyl groups. Anion exchange resins usually contain a quaternary ammonium, secondary amine or tertiary amine active group. For water-softeners, anion exchange resins can substitute chloride ions for other less soluble anions such as hydroxyls, carbonates, and sulfates. In water-purifying systems, anion exchange resins are used second in line after a cation exchange resin. The first column removes the cations and replaces them with hydrogen ions to form acids. The anion exchange column removes the anions and substitutes hydroxyl ions to form water. Anion exchange resins are also used to purify organic compounds.

Anionic detergent

== Description ==
A class of synthetic, water-soluble, detergents that are most commonly used as surfactants. In anionic detergents, the hydrophilic portion of the molecule carries a negative charge. They contain anion groups (sulfate, sulfonates, or phosphates) combined with an alkali or an ammonium cation and a long-chain hydrocarbon. Examples are soap, linear sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate (LAS), linear alkyl sulfate and linear alkyl ethoxy sulfate. Anionic detergents act as a wetting agents, but will precipitate when combined with cationic surfactants. They generally form alkaline solutions and thus, should not be used on wool.

Anions

== Description ==
Any chemical compound or functional group that has a negative charge. Anions are attracted to the anode in an electrolytic solution. They generally dissolve in water and precipitate with cationic compounds. Examples of anions are hydroxyl (OH-), carbonate (CO3=), chloride (Cl-) and sulfate (SO4=).

Aniseed

== Description ==
The pungent seed from the anise plant, Pimpinella anisum, native to the Mediterranean countries and India. Aniseeds have a licorice-like flavor and are used as an ingredient in pastries, meat, and vegetables. The tiny seeds contain about 2.5 percent oil of which the principal component is anethole. The essential oil was once used as a preservative in pastes and glues and as an enamel medium. It is now used as a licorice flavoring in absinthe, anisette, and Pernod liqueurs.

Annealed glass

== Description ==
All glass must be annealed, or slowly cooled, after it has been made. The annealing process allows the atomic structure of glass relaxes as it cools and thus reduces internal stresses that can otherwise weaken the glass. In most cases, annealing is achieved by holding the glass at approximately 5° C (9° F) above its annealing point for 5 to 15 minutes, followed by slowly cooling it through the glass-transition range and the strain point and finally to room temperature. Some glasses, such as tempered glass, are strengthened by flash cooling the glass from its annealing point. Optical glasses are held for a long-time at their annealing point then so slowly cooled that they have almost no detectable internal stresses.

tempered glass; heat-strengthened glass

Anode

== Description ==
The positively charged electrode in an electrolytic cell, voltaic cell, battery, or plating bath. Negatively charged ions are attracted to the anode. In a plating bath, the anode is the source metal from which the metallic ions are formed. In a corroding system, the anode is the metal at which oxidation is occurring.

Anodized aluminum

== Description ==
Metallic aluminum naturally forms a thin, transparent oxide layer that provides corrosion protection. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that quickly builds-up this oxide layer. Anodized aluminum is usually silver, gray, or brown, but the layer readily absorbs dyes of any color. The electrochemical process for anodizing was first developed in the 1920s and was initially used for electrical applications. After World War II, anodized coatings became popular for architectural construction because of their corrosion resistance and decorative colors.

Anoxia

== Description ==
A condition in which oxygen deprivation results in damage or death. Anoxia treatment are used in conservation to kill insects. To produce an oxygen free environment, an air-tight case must be created, usually with a vapor barrier film, such as Marvelseal® 360. Then the sealed environment is purged with a non-oxygen gas, such as argon or nitrogen and oxygen scavenger tablets, such as Ageless®, are added to maintain the low oxygen concentrations. When oxygen levels are kept at or below 0.1%, all life stages of ten commonly found museum insects can be killed in ten days (Daniel et al 1993).
