	Rosin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rosin varies in color, according to the age of the tree from whence the turpentine is drawn and the amount of heat applied in distillation, from an opaque almost pitchy fl substance through grades of brown and yellow to an almost perfectly transparent colorless glassy mass.
		Rosin is a brittle and friable, with a faint piny odor; the melting-point varies with different specimens, some being semi-fluid at the temperature of boiling water, while others melt at 100°C to 120°C. It is very flammable, burning with a smoky flame, so care should be taken when melting it.
		Rosin consists mainly of abietic acid, and combines with caustic alkalis to form salts (rosinates or pinates) that are known as rosin soaps.

	Glow in the dark rosin - Patent 6280654
		The"glow in the dark" rosin may be used for both aesthetic and practical purposes where conventional rosins are employed, and in other ways where the properties of a rosin that may be seen in the dark are desirable.
		A luminescent compound comprising an admixture of friction-imparting rosin and a luminescent glow pigment, the admixture having the property of imparting a luminescent quality to a movable object to which the admixture is applied to provide dynamic visual effects upon movement of the object in a dark environment.
		The rosin may be applied to bows in the same manner as conventional rosin when preparing to play a violin, cello, double bass or any other stringed instrument to enhance the effects of a performance.

		When rosin cools it forms what is known as a glassy polymer, which, for all intents, is a fairly hard and un-reactive material, something akin to window glass, which is the classic glassy form of silicon dioxide or sand.
		Rosin of the powdery sort that is noticeable on strings after about an hour or so of playing generally doesn't adversely affect the tone in the same fashion as does that cement-like material often found on the strings of an instrument the welfare of which is studiously ignored by a less-than-inspired teenager, for example.
		Rosin is dissolved quite readily by xylene (very volatile, carcinogenic, therefore unhealthy to use, especially without adequate ventilation) and reasonably well by mineral spirits (which is a lot less volitile, therefore much safer health-wise, and doesn't smell).

	All Things Strings:Rosin
		Rosin, the ubiquitous accessory for any stringed-instrument player is actually a bit of a mystery to most musicians.
		Rosin is drawn directly from living trees in a tapping process–in much the same way that maple syrup is collected (the process in no way harms the tree).
		Since light rosin is harder and not as sticky as its darker counterpart, it is also preferable for the higher strings.

	Violin Rosin
		Rosin is a brittle and friable resin, with a faint piny odor; the melting-point varies with different specimens, some being semi-fluid at the temperature of boiling water, while others melt at 100° to 120° C. It is very flammable, burning with a smoky flame, so care should be taken when melting it.
		In the north of Europe rosin is obtained from the Scots Pine P. sylvestris, and throughout European countries local supplies are obtained from other species of pine, with Aleppo Pine P. halepensis being particularly important in the Mediterranean region.
		In addition to using rosin for stringed instruments, rosen is also used by in ballet slippers, printing inks, varnishes, glues, medicines, chewing gum, soap, paper sizing, and powder used to polish glass and lenses.

	Rosin components identified in diapers Contact Dermatitis, 34, 176-180 1996
		Rosin components were detected in all diapers, the highest amounts in those from the 2 major producers.
		Rosin components were detected in all the diapers that we analyzed in 1993.
		Although the risk of sensitization to rosin allergens in diapers might be considered minimal, it is important to be aware of the risk of elicitation in sensitive individuals, especially since penetration is enhanced by occlusion and irritation.

		The bow is thus freed from the string not as a result of the gradual increase in stress between the rosined hair and the rosined string, but because the kink has arrived to set it loose.
		The Wooden Rosin Tray (Part #700___) is attached to the Rosin Holder Bracket (Part #700____) using 3m double-sided foam tape.
		The Rosin Holder Bracket should be adjusted so that the rosin is about 1/32” – 1/16” (.050”) away from the bow when the bow is at home position.

		The word rosin is the key part to the phrase, and rosin refers to a substance used to treat the bows of stringed instruments (including a fiddle as heard in the tune).
		Rosin itself is the solid amber residue that remains after turpentine oleoresin or naptha from pine trees is destilled.
		Rosin is not just used for bow strings, it’s also used in adhesives, varnishes, inks and, in powdered form, as an anti-slip agent (similar to the use of chalk in weightlifting or gymnastics).

	Gum naval stores: Turpentine and rosin from pine resin -Appendix
		Rosin is graded on the basis of colour, the palest being the most desirable and designated WW* ('water-white').
		Rosin is a glass, rather than a crystalline solid, and the point at which is softens when heated is referred to as the softening point (rather than melting point).
		Since rosin is an acidic material and the manufacturer of downstream derivatives depends on its acid functionality, a high acid number (and saponification number) is also an indication of good quality.

		If there appears to be slipping (which means that the rosin is not assisting the hair in grabbing the strings...you'll also notice that there will be no tone or volume emitting from the strings with slippage), and the bow is not grabbing the strings enough to generate a tone, try applying more rosin.

	Rosin Emulsion Sizing Agents
		One of the major components of softwood rosin is abietic acid, a partially unsaturated compound with three fused six-membered rings and one carboxyl group.
		It is common to treat the native rosin with fumaric acid, converting at least some of the abietic acid and related compounds to tricarboxylic species called "fortified rosin." Rosin acids are tacky solids at room temperature.
		Rosin emulsions are most often used in conjunction with a "reverse addition" strategy for alum and rosin.

		The rosin is very popular worldwide because it has unique qualities that enable the bow to really "grab" the string and make a very pleasing sound.
		The rosin is necessarily soft to produce the qualities that give the bow such a good "grab." The label reminds one to keep it upright and in the red container.
		So my rosin is always new and fresh, unlike other stores where the shelf life can range in age from 45 days or less (like The Bass Rosin Store) to maybe a year or more.
