crazing

GBK English to Czech Tech/Engineering Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.)
Definition from Pro Plastics Inc.:
Minute lines appearing in or near the surface of materials such as plastics, usually resulting as a response to environment. Crazing cannot be felt by running a fingernail across if (if the fingernail catches, it is a crack).
Example sentences:
All concrete products and many natural stones, under varying conditions of moisture and temperature, are frequently subject to crazing. A manufacturer careful in proportioning of designs and watchful of compaction techniques and curing methods will minimize the likelihood of crazing as a result of manufacturing causes. (Cast Stone Institute, Inc.)
Crazing is generally undesirable; however, certain glazes, referred to as crackle glazes, are specifically composed to develop a controlled form of crazing. (About.com)
Crazing occurs when the surface of a moulding is stretched beyond its limit, due to localised surface stresses being too high at some time during moulding, finishing, or use. (Performance Plastics Ltd)

vznik vlasových trhlin

Definition from own experience or research:
Vlasové nebo také pavučinové trhliny jsou technické trhliny těžko rozeznatelné okem, neznatelné na omak. Vznikají díky nadměrnému pnutí vznikajícím na základě neprofesionálního zpracování materiálu, jeho špatného složení či značných objemových změn.
Example sentences:
Pavučinové nebo také vlasové trhliny vznikají buď kvůli nedostatečně savému podkladu, nebo kvůli příliš vlhké omítce. (Brule Morava)
Často se na stropě v omítce objevují vlasové trhliny rovnoběžné se směrem I nosníků. (časopis Stavebnictví)
Celá stavba může takzvaně sednout, a vzhledem k tomu, že ani ty nejlepší omítky nejsou dostatečně pružné, lze v nich brzy objevit vlasové trhlinky. (Svět bydlení)
