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 ... -
Tensile properties and FTIR analysis of HDPE/soya spent powder in oven aging
(AENSI Publisher All rights reserved, 2013-10)This investigation involves pure HDPE and then HDPE with addition of soya spent powder with different weight percentagesbefore and after exposing in the oven aging. The characteristics of pure HDPE and HDPE/ soya spent ... -
Tensile properties LLDPE/soya spent powder blends: Oven aging
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE)/soya spent powder blends with different blends ratio were prepared by using internal mixer. Soya spent powder was varied from 5 to 40 wt. The thermal degradability was assessed by ... -
Tensile properties, swelling, and water absorption behavior of rice-husk-powder-filled polypropylene/(recycled acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber) composites
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2011-09)The effect of rice husk powder (RHP) on the tensile properties, swelling, water absorption, and morphology of polypropylene (PP)/[recycled acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBRr)]/RHP composites was studied. Composites ... -
Thermal properties of linear-low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/soya spent powder blends with the addition of epoxidised natural rubber
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)Soya spent powder as an inexpensive and renewable source has been used as a filler for linear-low density polyethylene (LLDPE) in this study. Linear-low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/soya spent powder composites were prepared ... -
Thermogravimetric analysis and the optimisation of bio-oil yield from fixed-bed pyrolysis of rice husk using response surface methodology (RSM)
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-03)The effects of pyrolysis temperature, heating rate, particle size, holding time, and gas flow rate were investigated to optimize bio-oil yield from rice husk pyrolysis. Thermogravimetric analysis showed thermal degradation ... -
Treatment of azo dye Acid Orange 7 containing wastewater using up-flow constructed wetland with and without supplementary aeration
(Elsevier Ltd., 2010-12)The aim of this study is to examine and compare the treatment performance of Acid Orange 7 (AO7) containing wastewater by up-flow constructed wetland (UFCW) at different AO7 concentrations, hydraulic retention times (HRT) ... -
Treatment of methylene blue-containing wastewater using microorganisms supported on granular activated carbon under packed column operation
(Springer-Verlag, 2007-05)We studied the feasibility of using biological granular activated carbon-packed column in treating methylene blue-containing wastewater. The granular activated carbon with immobilized microbes was packed into a column and ... -
Use of plastic waste (high density polyethylene) in concrete mixture as aggregate replacement
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)Rapid industrial development causes serious problem all over the world such as depletion of natural aggregates and creates enormous amount of waste material from construction and demolition activities. Quantities of polymer ... -
