Reference: Have you done any research? Reference information: Here are some tips from online dictionaries sbozzo nm 2 vetr bloom. https://dizionari.repubblica.it/Italiano-Inglese/S/sbozzo.ht... bloom (verb, def. 2) technical with object Coat (a lens) with a special surface layer so as to reduce reflection from its surface. https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/bloom#h47436033... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 32 mins (2018-08-08 16:40:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Does this help? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 17 hrs (2018-08-10 09:37:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As a validation to Cedric's answer, I've now found this bilingual text from a reliable source (lens manufacturer ZEISS), 'La produzione della lente minerale inizia con uno sbozzo. I materiali naturali grezzi (come il quarzo, il carbonato di potassio, la soda) sono fusi in una mistura di vetro a 1400/1500 gradi Celsius. Successivamente, sono iniettati automaticamente in una pressa che porta ad ottenere un blocco di vetro rotondo spesso 3 cm che ha superficie anteriore e una posteriore opaca e grezza – il cosiddetto sbozzo. È una sorta di diamante non tagliato.' https://tinyurl.com/yawdfsoh 'Mineral lens production begins with a blank lens. Natural raw materials (such as quartz, potassium carbonate and soda) are melted into a glass mixture at 2500to 2700degrees Fahrenheit. Next, they are automatically fed into a press and processed into a round glass block 1 to 3 cm thick – the so-called blank. It is like an uncut diamond.' https://tinyurl.com/y8pn7tlq -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 days (2018-08-17 19:05:01 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thanks for your help, Barbara! |
