Wood ash has a long antecedent in the history of ceramic glaze making. Various efforts have been made by potters and researchers to obtain ash from other sources apart from wood which include rice husks, bamboo, bones, etc. This study took a step further to obtain ash from palm k...
Aims: The effect of magnesium (II) and lithium (I) ions concentration on mixed electrolyte of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) for the electrical conductivity of magnesium and lithium cells were studied. Methodology: The DMSO-THF system was evaluated quantitativ...
Objective: Besides the prevention of caries and periodontitis, an increasing number of oral care products focus on teeth whitening. Nowadays, teeth whitening is considered as one of the most common and inexpensive method for treating discoloration of teeth. Dental esthetics has b...
Steel milling companies are taking advantage of readily available scrap metals as raw materials to produce reinforcing bars. Major steel importers also continue to import reinforcing bars into the country to fill the gap between production and demand for steel reinforcing bars in...
The modified Harris Process which uses sodium carbonate and sodium nitrate is currently being used to remove antimony during the lead purification process in the battery manufacturing process. This study investigates the possibility of using sodium nitrate alone to remove antimon...
For a better use of wood as an engineering material, knowledge of its strength properties is important. In building projects, strength properties of wood and wood-based components are crucial. The research was to investigate some mechanical properties of white mangrove (Laguncula...
Wood is an important structural material requiring treatments to improve its properties and resistance to biodeterioration agents; one of such is wood modification. Furfurylation is one of the chemical modifications of wood. It is based on wood impregnation with furfuryl alcohol...
Dimensional stability and durability of wood can be improved by chemical modification. However, some strength properties are reduced, increased or not affected depending on the type of chemical used. Two high density tropical hardwood species, Nesogordonia papaverifera and Cynome...
Device miniaturization and a desire to add some functionality for the next-generation electronic circuits have prompted the research community into a single molecule electronics. Here, we analyzed anthracene molecules coupled to Au electrodes through anchor groups. By using densi...
