Recent developments in Polymer Matrix Composites – A review

Recent Developments in Polymer MEMS

The microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) area has been developed extensively during the past three decades. In the 1970s, with the advancement of semiconductor microelectronics processing, researchers investigated wet anisotropic chemical etching processes for forming three dimensional silicon geometries. In the 1980s, researchers adopted the Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) process to realize ...

Recent developments in configuration design and optimization of mineral separation circuits; A Review

The present research reviews two basic approaches for the separation circuit configuration analysis. The first approach is to optimize the circuit configuration. In this method, after a circuit modeling, a variety of search algorithms and mathematical optimization methods are used. Previous works show that this approach has more application in the flotation process. The second approach called t...

Manufacturing of Polymer-matrix Composites

A Review and Recent Developments

Grace GmbH & Co. KG Cost reduction and health, safety, and environmental issues are primary drivers of change in the coatings industry today. The users of all kinds of metal products are not only concerned that the products they buy will be long-lasting and the costs of maintenance minimal, but also that the materials used are damaging neither to human health nor the environment. The coatings m...

Phytoestrogens: recent developments

Phytoestrogens are polyphenolic non-steroidal plant compounds with estrogen like activity exerted through estrogen receptors. These receptors are distributed in several tissues such as male and female reproductive systems, bones, cardiovascular and central nervous systems. These natural phenolic compounds include isoflavonoids, flavonoids, lignans and stilbenes. Isoflavonoids are the most studi...
