The limiting factor in acid dry land is root poisoning by Al3+. Hamill cultivar (Panicum maximum cv Hamil) a plant that commonly used farmer, where the production of matter not much different from elephant grass. This study aimed to evaluate productivity hamil cultivars on soil. research was conducted greenhouse Research Institute Animal Production Ciawi. completely randomized design with 10 re...

One-pot solvothermal synthesis of a robust tetranuclear sodium hexakis(glycolato)tris(methanolato)aluminate complex Na3[Al4(OCH3)3(OCH2CH2O)6] via a modified yet rigorous base-catalyzed transesterification mechanism is presented here. Single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) studies indicate that this unique Al complex contains three penta-coordinate Al3+ ions, each bound to two bidentate ethyl...

The effects of polyvalent metal cations on pyrene binding to hydrophobic acid and neutral fractions (HoA and HoN, respectively) of dissolved organic matter (DOM) were elucidated. The DOM was isolated from sewage sludge; pyrene binding was estimated from fluorescence measurements. Isotherms of pyrene binding to both fractions were nonlinear. Pyrene binding was higher for HoN due to the combined ...

This study was carried out in Paraopeba National Reserve. It aims to classify and evaluate the soil of the studied area and to verify the influence of soil attributes on vegetation by testing the following hypotheses: 1) under woodland physiognomies (Cerradão) the soil fertility is higher and the Al content lower; 2) open savanna occurs only in areas with high Al contents. For this purpose, rep...

Textile industries are one of the largest consumers of water and hence producers of liquid effluents. The dyeing and finishing processes generate volumes of wastewaters in the range 45450 m3 per ton of product [1], containing salts, acids, bases, additives and unfixed dyes. A suitable treatment of these complex wastewaters should lead to a strong decline on the organic load, and desirably to a ...

A model for creep threshold stresses in alloys strengthened by coherent, misfitting precipitates is developed for the case where the precipitate is not sheared, and where there are elastic interactions between a dislocation and the precipitate over which it climbs. Calculations of the particle stress field due to a positive stiffness and lattice parameter mismatch between precipitate and matrix...

Two different aspects of the thermal stability of grains were studied – (i) thermal stability of grain structure evolution during friction stir processing (FSP), and (ii) thermal stability of grains after FSP. It was concluded that Al3(Sc,Zr) dispersoids are effective in limiting grain growth to ultrafine grained regime (UFG) by stabilizing the microstructure during FSP. The presence of these d...

Precipitation strengthening is investigated in binary Al–0.1Sc, Al–0.1Zr and ternary Al–0.1Sc–0.1Zr (at.%) alloys aged isochronally between 200 and 600 C. Precipitation of Al3Sc (L12) commences between 200 and 250 C in Al–0.1Sc, reaching a 670 MPa peak microhardness at 325 C. For Al–0.1Zr, precipitation of Al3Zr (L12) initiates between 350 and 375 C, resulting in a 420 MPa peak microhardness at...

The aqueous Al-ion battery has achieved great progress in recent years. It now shows comparable performance to that of even non-aqueous batteries. However, it also relatively low energy output and there is limited general understanding the mechanism behind this restriction its practical application. Thus, development a high-performance cathode material demand. Herein, high-capacity single-walle...
