Effects of Some Additives on the Tensile Strength and Young Modulus of Epoxy Resin

M. U. Onuoha, C. M. Ekwunife, E. E. Okpala & O. J. Okeakpu · Journal of Materials Science Research and Reviews · 2023

Epoxy resin was mixed with bone powder, PMMA and Animal hair at 0%, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.5% and 5.0% levels. The tensile strength and the modulus were determined using Instron Universal Testing Machine. The results showed that as the filler load increases, modulus increase...

Design and Development of a Sustainable Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger for Use in a Higher Institution

Larry Orobome Agberegha, Afoegba Siedougha Clement, Godspower Edafeadhe & Adenike O. Akinyemi · Journal of Materials Science Research and Reviews · 2023

A heat exchanger can be defined as a thermo-fluid device that is used to transfer heat between two media, from a heat sink and to a heat source. This heat transfer is driven by the temperature differential between the former and the latter. The purpose of this work is to design,...
