General properties of kaolin geopolymers
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
This paper reported the properties of kaolin geopolymers in term of the bulk density, compressive strength, qualitative observation and SEM analysis of the kaolin geopolymers. Kaolin geopolymers were synthesized through ...
Characterization of rambutan seed (Nephelium lappaceum) as natural adsorbent for wastewater treatment
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Activated carbons were prepared from rambutan seed with impregnation of zinc chloride as dehydrating agent. In order to find its characteristics, different zinc chloride to rambutan seed ratio (0.5 and 2) and activation ...
Cure characteristics and hardness of recycled latex catheter (LCr) filled with Standard Malaysia Rubber (SMR L) compounds
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The effect of cure characteristics and hardness of LCr filled SMR L compound were investigated. The size of LCr were 20 - 25 mm in range. Six compounds; 0, 5, 15, 2 5, 35 and 5 0 per hundred rubber (phr) of LCr were prepared ...
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 ...
Natural rubber/styrene butadiene rubber/recycled nitrile glove (NR/SBR/rNBRg) ternary blend: Tensile properties & morphology
(AENSI Publisher All rights reserved, 2013-10)
Recycling waste rubber products by utilising them in rubber blends had provided the simplest and most cost-effective ways in solving several environmental issues regarding the abundance of scrap rubbers. Discarded nitrile ...
A study on Hydrogen Sulphide as potential tracer in landfill gas monitoring
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills are one of the major source of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) which is the offensive odours potentially creating annoyance in adjacent communities. This project focuses on H2S emission from ...
Solar photocatalytic degradation of mono azo methyl orange and diazo reactive green 19 in single and binary dye solutions: Adsorbability vs photodegradation rate
(Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2013-05)
The objective of this study was to examine the effects of adsorbability and number of sulfonate group on solar photocatalytic degradation of mono azo methyl orange (MO) and diazo Reactive Green 19 (RG19) in single and ...
Production of methane gas from organic fraction municipal solid waste (OFMSW) via anaerobic process: Application methodology for the Malaysian condition
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2013)
Solid waste management in Malaysia is confronted with many problems, including low collection coverage, irregular collection services, inadequate equipment used for waste collection, crude open dumping and burning without ...
An evaluation of overstrength factor of seismic designed low rise RC buildings
(Elsevier, 2013)
This study investigates the overstrength factor of reinforced concrete frame designed according to EC2 and EC8. There are two families of building considered in this study, i.e: regular and irregular in elevation with ...
Mechanical performances of fly ash geopolymer bricks
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
Geopolymer is a new class of three-dimensionally networked amorphous to semi-crystalline alumino-silicate materials, and first developed by Professor Davidovits in 1978. Geopolymers can be synthesized by mixing alumino-silicate ...
