a gyroscopically controlled fin or similar device that prevents the excess rolling of a ship in rough seas
Chemicals developed to impart light and heat stability to plastics, so they don't start to turn color when exposed to normal lighting and heat ranges expected in end-use areas
An agent used in compounding some plastics to assist in maintaining the physical and chemical properties of the compounded materials at suitable values throughout the processing and service life of the material and/or the parts made therefrom
cyanuric acid used to to help prevent chlorine from breaking down in strong sunlight
{i} person or thing that stabilizes; relatively large shock absorber for cars; (Aviation) airfoil that stabilizes an airplane; (Nautical) mechanical device that controls and reduces the the rolling of a ship in stormy and rough waters; (Chemistry) chemical that is added to a another substance to maintain it in a stable chemical or physical condition; ingredient (gelatin for example) used to prevent certain desserts from breaking down (also stabiliser)
a device for making something stable airfoil consisting of a device for stabilizing an aircraft a chemical that is added to a solution or mixture or suspension to maintain it in a stable or unchanging state
A chemical when used properly is a very effective control of chlorine Inhibits the ultra violet rays of the sun from destroying the chlorine Cyanuric acid is normally used as a stabilizer in swimming pool water
sta·bi·li·zer stabilizers in BRIT, also use stabiliser A stabilizer is a device, mechanism, or chemical that makes something stable
A substance that makes a mixture more stable Antioxidants and antiozonants are examples of stabilizers; stabilizers are added to paints to prevent the components of the mixture from separating over time
