MILADY NAIL TECHNOLOGY FINAL EXAM
EMA (ethyl methacrylate) - The standard monomer liquid is made from this.
Polymerisation - Answer Polymer liquid is created using a unique chemical
reaction known as:
Methacrylates - Answer Acrylic enhancement systems are part of this branch of the
acrylic family.
MMA (methyl methacrylate) - Answer Monomer liquid is not suggested for use on
nails.
Catalysts - Additives designed to accelerate chemical reactions.
Polymerisation - Answer Another term for curing or hardening.
Coarse grit file: 100 grit or lower.
Medium grit file - 150-180 grit
Fine grit file or buffer - 240 grit or above.
A shiner is a buffer that is used to generate a high shine on natural or enhanced
nails.
ANSWER: ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) Nail tips are typically
manufactured from this.
, Acrylic maintenance should be done every - ANSWER 2-3 weeks.
Apex (arch) - ANSWER Area of the nail with the highest strength
Apex - Answer. Usually oval-shaped and situated in the centre of the nail.
Stress area - ANSWER Where the natural nail extends beyond the finger and
becomes free edge.
Sidewall - ANSWER Area on the side of the nail plate that grows free of natural
attachment to the nail fold and where extension exits natural nail.
Oligomer - Answer A prepolymer is a short chain of monomers that are not long
enough to be considered polymers.
Medium (180 grit) - Answer Use this type of abrasive for natural nail preparation.
The most common UV bulb on the market is the 9-watt bulb.
Nail plate - Answer Hardened keratin plate lays on top of the underlying nail bed.
Nail bed - Answer A portion of the live skin that supports the nail plate as it grows
towards the free edge.
Bed epithelium - Answer The nail bed is connected to the nail plate by a thin layer
of tissue termed the
