The objective of the study was to determine the thermal degradati on mechanisms and apparent activation energies of agro waste residues using thermo gravimetric analysis....
Alkyd resin (CSOR) was prepared from castor seed oil (CSO) by alcoholysis with glycerol to form monoglyceride and polycondensation with phthalic anhydride to form the alkyd...
Sulfuric acid doped polyaniline thin films were grown on glass substrates by in -situ polymerization of Aniline with Ammonium peroxydisulfate as oxidant. The effect of solvent...
A monofunctional 1,3-benzoxazine was synthesized via three-step technique involving condensation of 4- nitroaniline with 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde to obtain an Imine compound which...
Due to environmental concerns associated with synthetic fibers as reinforcement in composites, attention is now on the natural fibers that are biodegradable. While there are...
During atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) a halogen terminated initiator is necessary for the initiation of the polymerization and subsequent formation of the polymer...
Natural rubber with constant viscosity of 10, Standard Nigerian Rubber (SNR 1 0) was compounded with locally sourced white sand (WS) and standard silica (SS) as fillers. The WS...
The utilization of glass waste powder as cement additives for partial replaceme nt of cement in concrete could be an important step toward the development of sustainable...
The fracture characteristics and mechanical stability of thermoset composites are of utmost importance in some engineering applications. In this study, novel 3...
Plastic waste materials pose great challenge worldwide as they affect both human and marine life, in every environment where waste is indiscriminately disposed of. The use of...
