Deutsch: Überprüfen / Español: Verificar / Português: Verificar / Français: Vérifier / Italiano: Controllare /
In the quality management context, check refers to the step in a process where the performance and outcomes are evaluated against predetermined standards or criteria to ensure compliance and correctness. This stage is critical for identifying deviations, errors, or areas for improvement in the production or service delivery processes.
Deutsch: Chemischer Stoff / Español: Sustancia quemica
In chemistry, a chemical substance is a form of matter that has constant chemical composition and characteristic properties. It cannot be separated into components by physical separation methods, i.e. without breaking chemical bonds. It can be solid, liquid,, gas, or plasma.
Deutsch: Chemische Produktion / Español: Fabricación química / Português: Fabricação química / Français: Fabrication chimique / Italiano: Produzione chimica
Chemical Manufacturing refers to the industrial-scale production of chemical substances through controlled chemical reactions, purification processes, and formulation techniques. It plays a pivotal role in global supply chains, providing raw materials for sectors such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture, automotive, and consumer goods. Quality management in this field ensures compliance with regulatory standards, minimizes environmental impact, and guarantees product safety and consistency.

A chemical substance (Chemicals) is a form of matter having constant chemical composition and characteristic properties.
Deutsch: Chemilumineszenz / Español: Quimioluminiscencia / Português: Quimioluminescência / Français: Chimiluminescence / Italian: Chemioluminescenza
Chemiluminescence refers to the emission of light during a chemical reaction without the need for external light sources. This phenomenon occurs when chemical energy is converted directly into light energy, typically during the Oxidation of a molecule.
Deutsch: Chlorid / Español: Cloruro / Português: Cloreto / Français: Chlorure / Italiano: Cloruro
Chloride in the quality management context refers to the presence and concentration of chloride ions in materials or products, which is a key factor in controlling and ensuring the quality and longevity of those products, especially in industries sensitive to corrosion or contamination.
Deutsch: Farbart / Español: Cromaticidad / Português: Cromaticidade / Français: Chromaticité / Italiano: Cromaticità
Chromaticity is a fundamental concept in color science and quality management, describing the qualitative aspect of color independent of its luminance. It defines the hue and saturation of a color, enabling precise communication and standardization in industries where color consistency is critical. This property is essential for ensuring reproducibility in manufacturing, digital imaging, and material testing.
Deutsch: Chromatographie / Español: Cromatografiai / Português: Cromatografia / Français: Chromatographie / Italiano: Cromatografia
Chromatography is the collective term for a set of laboratory techniques for the separation of mixtures. The mixture is dissolved in a fluid called the mobile phase, which carries it through a structure holding another material called the stationary phase. The various constituents of the mixture travel at different speeds, causing them to separate. The separation is based on differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. Subtle differences in a compound's partition coefficient result in differential retention on the stationary phase and thus changing the separation.
