Composite material is a combination of two or more materials having compositional variations and depicting properties distinctively different from those of the individual materials of the composite. A composite mixture having more than one fiber is known as hybrid composite During the past decade, considerable research effort has been directed towards the development of in situ Metal Matrices h...

Guest(metal)-zeolite interactions in a two component heterogeneous catalyst have been investigated by high-field and high-speed (27)Al MAS NMR, and two-dimensional (27)Al MQ MAS NMR experiments as well as ab initio DFT methods. It was established that strong interactions between guest and zeolite occur in a metal/zeolite system, with the metal anchored to the tetrahedral aluminum framework site...

Mathematical model for the description of deformation of a porous metal is constructed on the basis of generalized rheological method. In this method a new rheological element, so-called rigid contact, is used to describe the uniaxial deformation of materials with different resistance to tension and compression. Change in the resistance of a porous metal to external loads, when the collapse of ...

The A356 aluminum alloy is a very commonly used in the automotive industry, for parts such as pistons, cylinder heads, and connecting rods, which mechanical properties can be effectively increased by anodizing. In this work, oxide layers were formed oxalic acid solution with defined parameters on then studied using novel combination of scanning electron microscope (SEM) in-situ nanoindentation....

The transformation of methyl tert-butyl ether ~MTBE! and tert-amyl methyl ether ~TAME! using bifunctional aluminum in the presence of dioxygen ~O2! has been examined. Bifunctional aluminum, prepared by sulfating zero-valent aluminum with sulfuric acid, is an innovative extension of zero-valent metal technology. It has a dual functionality of simultaneously decomposing both reductively and oxida...

chemically, may be regarded as weak substituted heterocyclic amino acids. These drugs primarily find use in the treatment of urinary and respiratory infections. Fluoroquinolones exhibit strong activity against Gram-negative and some Gram-positive bacteria, though many anaerobic strains are resistant. Fleroxacin and moxifloxacin are fluoroquinolone family members which belong to 2nd and 4th gene...
