in this study, al/al2o3 composites with two different particle sizes of 1 µm and 0.3 µm were produced via accumulative roll bonding (arb). the microstructure evolution, mechanical properties and fracture behavior of the composites were investigated. results show that higher arb cycles are required to achieve a uniform distribution of particles in the composite with 0.3 µm particle size. during ...

The virucidal effect of pH and salinity on Penaeus monodon baculovirus (MBV) was investigated by water borne inoculated methods exposing PL12 Penaeus semisulcatus for 10 hours and observing for 10 days at temperature 28- 30°C. For this purpose, one thousand virus free PL12 of P. semisulcatus were divided into five groups and each group placed in a 10 L plastic basin containing chlorine-trea...
