Composite cement reinforced coconut fiber: physical and mechanical properties and fracture behavior
(INSInet Publications, 2011)
This research paper reports the effect of natural fiber content on the physical and mechanical properties as well as fracture behavior of composite cement reinforced with coconut fiber. The mix design was based on 1:1 for ...
Comparative study on thermal, compressive, and wear properties of palm slag brake pad composite with other fillers
(Trans Tech Publications, 2011)
The attractive performance-to-cost ratio associated with the incorporation of waste material in composite formulations used to produce brake pads has stimulated the idea of exploring the possible incorporation of additional ...
The development of cement composites reinforced coconut fiber with fly ash addition: mechanical properties and fracture behaviour
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
This research paper presents a study on the development of cement composites reinforced coconut fiber with fly ash addition. Various content of coconut fiber (3 wt. %, 6 wt. %, 9 wt. %, 12 wt. % and 15 wt. %) was added to ...
Oxide semiconductors for solar to chemical energy conversion: nanotechnology approach
(Institute for Ionics, 2014)
The present work considers the application of oxide semiconductors in the conversion of solar energy into the chemical energy required for water purification (removal of microbial cells and toxic organic compounds from ...
The influence of particle sizes and compaction pressure on surface hardness of aluminum composite fabricated via powder metallurgy
(INSInet Publications, 2011)
A statistical analysis was used to anticipate the influence of particles sizes and compaction pressure on surface hardness of aluminum composites after compacted in a rigid die under an uniaxial compaction. Al-20 wt.% slag ...
Structural & Magnetic Characterizations of NiLiZn Nanoferrites Synthesized by Co-precipitation Method
(Chinese Society of Metals, 2011)
Synthesis of Ni 0.5Li xZn (0.5-x)Fe 2O 4 nanoparticles with x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 were realized via co-precipitation method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurements were ...
Effect of heating rate on microstructure and properties of the iron-chromium reinforced with alumina particle produced via microwave sintering
(Praise Worthy Prize, 2013)
The application of microwave sintering to metallic materials offers better mechanical properties over conventional sintering method. In this paper, the effect of heating rate on the microstructure and properties of the ...
Assessment of physical and mechanical properties of cement panel influenced by treated and untreated coconut fiber addition
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
This project was conducted to produce a cement panel with the addition of treated and untreated coconut fiber in cement panel. Coconut fiber was added to replace coarse aggregate (sand) in this cement panel. In this project, ...
Mechanical properties and morphology of palm slag, calcium carbonate and dolomite filler in brake pad composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The development of asbestos free brake pad composites using different fillers was investigated with a intention to substitute asbestos which is known hazardous and carcinogenic. Mechanical and morphology studies were made ...
Effects of fly ash addition on compressive strength and flexural strength of foamed cement composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
In this study, the mixing of polystyrene (PS) beads and fly ash as a sand replacement material in foamed cement composites (FCC) has been investigated. Specifically, the mechanical properties such as compressive strength ...
