To 'have a chip on your shoulder' means to have an irrational resentment directed at other people (especially those who are not a member of a group or community which you identify with) because of a sense of inferiority (or an erroneous impression that others see you as inferior).
Part of the Nanotechnology glossary: A nanometer is a unit of spatial measurement that is 10-9 meter, or one billionth of a meter. It is commonly used in nanotechnology, the building of extremely small machines. This was last updated in September 2005. Contributor(s): Ian Pulham.
Unfortunately the answer to this question is complex. Nanoparticles are particles defined as less than 100 nanometers in diameter, or 0.1 micron. Most nanoparticle sunscreens in the marketplace have particle sizes of 15 nanometers or 0.015 micron. Micronized sunscreens are created by grinding larger particle sizes into smaller ones. Typically micronized particles are between 0.1 micron and 100 microns, however the griding process may result in nanoparticles called âfinesâ which are smaller. Kabana uses neither nanoparticle (size) zinc oxide, nor micronized (manufacturing process) zinc oxide.
