Density :: Density (n.) Depth of shade.

Density :: Density (n.) The quality of being dense, close, or thick; compactness; -- opposed to rarity..

Refract :: Refract (n.) To break the natural course of, as rays of light orr heat, when passing from one transparent medium to another of different density; to cause to deviate from a direct course by an action distinct from reflection; as, a dense medium refrcts the rays of light as they pass into it from a rare medium..

Corpulency :: Corpulency (n.) Thickness; density; compactness.

Flint Glass :: Flint glass () A soft, heavy, brilliant glass, consisting essentially of a silicate of lead and potassium. It is used for tableware, and for optical instruments, as prisms, its density giving a high degree of dispersive power; -- so called, because formerly the silica was obtained from pulverized flints. Called also crystal glass. Cf. Glass..
