model Questions for Specific Examination

1. The most likely result of a too short dwell time of an einulsifier is:

(a) A tendency to relNove the penetrant from fine discontinuities

(b) Incomplete removal of excess surface penetrant

(c) An overactive elnulsifier

(d) All of the above

2. Difllision of a lipopliilic ernulsifier penetrant into the test piece surface is stopped by:

(a) The conclusion of the elnulsifier dwell time

(b) The peneti’ant

(c) Application of developer

(d) The water rinse step

3. When using a post emulsifiable peneti’ant process, it is iiiiportant to drain as much excess peneti’ant as
possible front the surface of a test piece which has been immersed in the penetrant because:

(a) Too much penetrant on the part surface iTlny lead to more rapid penetration and over-sensitivity

(b) A thinner layer of peneti’ant is likely to have higher capillary action and thus, be more sensitive to fine
discontinuities

(c) A thinner layer of penetrant will result in less penetrant contanNnation in the elnulsitier tank

(d) None of the above

4. When a drain-dwell technique is used dui’ing emulsification, what Evo niechmiisins are responsible
for combiiiing the elnulsifier and peneti’ant?

(a) Diffiision and turbulent mixing

(b) Osmosis and agitation

(c) Turbulent mixing and osmosis

(d) Agitation and nrbulent mixing

during normal processing. What should be done?
