Nails made of special, odorless gel, which is then cured by ultraviolet radiation. Some gels for nail harden by reacting with special chemicals.
Most experts in the gel capacity, however, use ultraviolet lamps. Common gels harden under the influence of light radiation with a wavelength between 340 and 380 nm (nanometers). The intensity of the radiation depends on the power of the lamps and their number. The more lamps installed in the lamp, the radiation is more intense. The distance between the nail and the lamp is also important - as a rule, the greater the distance, the more slowly the gel hardens. If the lamps are too far away, the gel may not solidify.
All these factors are important because of the gel for nail includes photoinitiators - agents that begin to harden when exposed to light of different wavelengths. When a photoinitiator is exposed to ultraviolet radiation at the desired wavelength of light, separates particles called free radicals. Free radicals given start of the polymerization reaction, which uses a part of gel resin. Since the reaction is exothermic, the gel is heated (or rather, gives off heat) and, if exposed nails are very close to the lamp, the temperature rise can be felt on the fingertips. To turned stronger nails often applied two or three layers of gel, and each time it is dried under a UV lamp.
When the nails are completely solidified, they formed into the desired shape. Then, on request, colored lacquer nails painted, painted and / or decorated with decorative elements.
