Compressive strength of fly ash based geopolymer / glass fiber composite via filament winding
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
In general, filament winding technique is used to fabricate the composite pipes using continuous fiber and matrix resin. In this study, fly ash based geopolymer resin composites reinforced by continuous glass fiber were ...
Effect of annealing atmosphere on the morphology of copper oxide thin films deposited on TiO₂ substrates prepared by sol-gel process
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Copper oxide films were prepared via sol-gel like spin coating starting from methanolic solutions of cupric chloride onto the TiO₂ substrates. Films were obtained by spin coating under room conditions (temperature, 25-30 ...
Fire resistance evaluation of lightweight geopolymer concrete system exposed to elevated temperatures of 100-800 °C
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This paper reports the fire resistance property of a lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) material synthesized by the alkali-activation of locally source fly ash (FA) after exposed to elevated temperatures ...
Optoelectronic and thermoelectric properties of KAuX5 (X = S, Se): A first principles study
(Springer Verlag, 2014-02)
The electronic structure as well as optical and thermoelectric properties of the orthorhombic polychalcogenides of gold KAuX5 (X = S, Se) compounds have been investigated using full-potential linearized augmented plane ...
Tensile and morphological properties of low density polyethylene/ spear grass composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
The spear grass content on the tensile properties, morphology of low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/spear grass was investigated. The compatibilising effect of epoxidised natural rubber (ENR 50) LDPE and spear grass was mixed ...
The need to intensify research efforts in the alternative to lead shot
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
The problem of lead poisoning resulting from the use of lead shot in hunting waterbirds and shooting sports has led to the partial ban, voluntary restriction and complete ban of lead shot in some countries. The ban resulted ...
Radiation shielding characteristics of concretes incorporates different waste materials
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Samples of concrete incorporate different waste materials such as iron filings, iron balls of used ball bearings and slags from steel industry were assessed for their anti-radiation attenuation coefficient properties. The ...
Compressive strength and morphology of fly ash based geopolymer as artificial aggregate with different curing temperature
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This paper presented the compressive strength of geopolymer paste with different NaOH concentration and morphology analysis for sintered artificial aggregate. This artificial aggregate was produce based on mix design with ...
First principle study of the electronic structure, Fermi surface, electronic charge density and optical properties of ThCu₅In and ThCu₅Sn single crystals
(Elsevier/NORTH-HOLLAND, 2014-02)
The electronic structure, Fermi surface, electronic charge density and optical properties of ThCu₅In and ThCu₅Sn single crystals are studied. The calculations are based on the full potential-linearized augmented plane wave ...
The effects of dynamic vulcanization in virgin polyethylene (vPE)/ recycled polyethylene (rPE)/ ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) blends: Tensile properties and morphology
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
The effects of dynamic vulcanisation in vPE/rPE/EPDM blends were studied. The discarded polyethylene used in the study was obtained from local cable manufacturers. The effects of different sulfur loading on the tensile ...
