The Metal Matrix Composites application has increased in many areas of science and technology, because its additional physical, wear mechanical properties. In comparison with all MMC’s, aluminum-based MMC’s are finding wide applications due to their better strength weight ratio, stiffness, high thermal conductivity as well very good corrosion properties a composite mainly depend on distribution...

Alkali-activated materials (AAM) consist of a precursor, which is source aluminosilicates, and an alkali source. The precursors are usually waste from various industries such as fly ash thermal power plants slags the metallurgical industry. Due to increasing use these in cement industry strategies for decommissioning coal-fired plants, alternative raw streams increasingly being explored. One al...

Mud formed from environmental dust particles in humid ambient air significantly influences the performance of solar harvesting devices. This study examines the characterization of environmental dust particles and the chemo-mechanics of dry mud formed from dust particles. Analytical tools, including scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, particle s...

Abstract The increasing use of industrial residues for the remediation landscapes contaminated with heavy metals diminishes negative environmental impact contamination itself, reduces demand primary raw materials and minimizes costs disposal residues. On other hand, often contain themselves, which make their application site controversial. This study assembles compares results different investi...

Drilling during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 160 (April–May, 1995) revealed important new evidence concerning the internal composition, depositional processes, and age of two mud volcanoes within the Mediterranean Ridge accretionary complex. Holes were drilled at ca. 2000 m water depth on the crest areas, across the flanks of the mud volcanoes, and onto adjacent deep-sea sediments. The main depos...

OBJECTIVE Mud, which contains organic and mineral ingredients, is used for the treatment of several degenerative diseases. It has been proposed that beneficial effects of mud are not only related to its local thermal effects, but also to its chemical components. Unlike hydrophilic components, the lipophilic components of the mud extract have not been described precisely thus far. Thus, we aimed...
