What are 10 examples of colloids?

Colloids are common in everyday life. Some examples include whipped cream, mayonnaise, milk, butter, gelatin, jelly, muddy water, plaster, colored glass, and paper. Every colloid consists of two parts: colloidal particles and the dispersing medium.

What is an example of a suspension mixture?

An example of a suspension is a mixture of water and sand. When mixed up, the sand will disperse throughout the water. If left alone, the sand will settle to the bottom. A colloid is a mixture where very small particles of one substance are evenly distributed throughout another substance.

What is the best type of suspension?

Multi-link and dual wishbone systems are the holy grail of suspension designs, allowing engineers to achieve agile handling without compromising ride quality.

What are signs of suspension problems?

Suspension Warning Signs

Continued bouncing after hitting bumps or a dipping when braking.
A drifting or pulling to one side when turning corners.
One side of the parked car sitting lower than the other side.
Difficult steering.
Unusually bumpy rides.

What is a suspension formulation?

Pharmaceutical suspensions are liquid dosage forms containing finely divided insoluble materials (the suspensoid) distributed somewhat uniformly throughout the suspending medium (suspending vehicle) in which the drug exhibits a minimum degree of solubility.

How do you make suspension medicine?

Gently shake the bottle to loosen the powder. Open the cap. Carefully add cool boiled water to about half the height of the final marking on the bottle.

How do you build RC shocks?

How To: Build Shocks Like A Pro

1 START CLEAN. A clean work area is a must.
2 COAT THE O-RINGS. Coat the O-rings with lube to protect them and to reduce friction.
3 PREP THE SEALS.
4 INSTALL THE SEALS.
5 PISTONS.
6 INSTALL THE SHAFT.
7 INSTALL THE SHOCK EYES.
8 FILL THE SHOCK.

What shock oil should I use RC?

The silicone shock oil is the correct oil. The silcone base has much less friction and best lubrication internally. Put some between your fingers and wipe off, there is still a nice glide of lubrication from the silicone.

When should I rebuild my RC shocks?

As far as a complete tear down and rebuild, run them for a weekend or 2 and tear them down, if they look good then go 3-4 weekends. If there was a bad item in the shock maybe rebuild every weekend.

Does RC shock oil go bad?

Shock oil does not go bad and doesn’t expire as long as you keep the bottle closed to protect it from dirt and grime. Shock oil in your RC shocks will need to be changed but that is because dirt and grime gets into it not because it has expired.

How much oil do you put in RC shocks?

Put the oil in with the shaft extended all the way out, pour the oil to about a 1/8″ – 1/4″ from the top is good.

How often should you change RC shock oil?

3 times

How do you fix a leaky shock absorber?

Repair of Shock Absorber Leaking

Disassemble. First of all, remove the rear or front struts leaking in your vehicle wheels.
Clean the Components. The next step is simple and easy.
Replace Leaking Components. Now take out the damaged components and separately place them to start the replace them.
Reassemble.
Test and Adjust.

Can I use motor oil in my RC shocks?

It will work in a pinch and won’t hurt anything in the shock. I’ve seen guys use everything from motor oil to peanut oil. If you’re just bashing it will most likely be fine but you will find that having specific wt shock oils will really help when trying to dial in a suspension setup.

How can I soften my shocks?

How to Soften Car Suspension

Install softer shocks and struts. As the primary component that affects your vehicle’s ride quality, shocks and struts have a very big impact.
Adjust the shocks to a softer setting, if you have adjustable shocks.
Install softer springs.
Replace the bushings in the suspension.

How are RC shocks measured?

Make sure you screw them on the same way on both shocks. Check the length of each shock afterwards. Use a calliper and measure between the hole in the shock cap and the ball cup. Measuring the overall length can give wrong results as you might have flash on the ball cups that add to the overall length.

Should RC shocks rebound?

If you let the air out of the shock cap then air pressure on the shock shaft and in the air gap at the top of the shock will be equal and there will be almost no rebound. The only rebound that would be left is the diaphragm trying to rebound to its natural shape.
