Tensile properties of polypropylene/cocoa pod husk biocomposites: Effect of maleated polypropylene
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Polypropylene/Cocoa Pod Husk (PP/CPH) biocomposites with different maleated polypropylene (MAPP) content were prepared via melt blending process using Brabender Plastrograph mixer. The tensile strength and tensile modulus ...
The environmental risk and water pollution: A review from the river basins around the world
(AENSI Publications, 2013-01)
"Water for Life" has declared as the International Decade (2005 to 2015) for Action for water by the United Nations General Assembly in 2005. Because of the rapid increase in demand for water, and increase in occurrences ...
Effect of maleic anhydride-grafted-polyethylene (MAPE) and silane on properties of recycled polyethylene/chitosan biocomposites
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2013-01)
Chitosan-filled recycled polyethylene biocomposites were prepared using an internal mixer. The effect of maleic anhydride-grafted-polyethylene (MAPE) and silane of recycled polyethylene (RPE)/chitosan biocomposites on ...
The use of dielectric mixture equations to analyze the dielectric properties of a mixture of rubber tire dust and rice husks in a microwave absorber
(Progress in Electromagnetics Research (PIER), 2012)
A change in the relative proportions of a mixture of rubber tire dust and rice husks will cause a change in the mixture's electrical permittivity and its ability to absorb electromagnetic energy. An openended coaxial probe ...
Dispersion of the linear and nonlinear optical susceptibilities of disilver germanium sulfide from DFT calculations
(Springer Science+Business Media New York., 2013-03)
The dispersion of the linear and nonlinear optical susceptibilities is calculated for disilver germanium sulfide (Ag2GeS3) using the all-electron full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. Calculations ...
Bismuth in gallium arsenide: Structural and electronic properties of GaAs 1-xBi x alloys
(Elsevier Inc., 2012-02)
The structural and electronic properties of cubic GaAs 1-xBi x alloys with bismuth concentration 0.0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.0 are studied using the 'special quasi-random structures' (SQS) approach of Zunger along with the ...
Yttria stabilized zirconia formed by micro ceramic injection molding: Rheological properties and debinding effects on the sintered part
(Elsevier B.V., 2013-04)
Micro Ceramic Injection Molding (μCIM) is a near net-shape process to produce smaller and intricate parts at a competitive cost. The application of nano-sized ceramic powder in μCIM has the advantages of fine grain size ...
An insect classification analysis based on shape features using quality threshold ARTMAP and moment invariant
(Springer, 2012-07)
The main objective of this paper is to investigate the use of Quality Threshold ARTMAP (QTAM) neural network in classifying the feature vectors generated by moment invariant for the insect recognition task. In this work, ...
Effect of grain size on the isothermal oxidation of superalloys
(American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information (AENSI), 2013-10)
The oxidation behavior of two different grain sizes of superalloys is discussed. The present paper focused on the isothermal oxidation of Fe-33Ni-19Cr alloy at temperatures of 700 °C exposed in dry air for 500 hours. ...
