This paper reports the mechanical-erosion wear properties of extracted silica from Biowaste (rice husk) and pure rice husk-filled epoxy composites. A comparison is made on influence dispersed husk particles The composites are fabricated by hand lay-up process. specimens tested as per ASTM standards for three different filler loadings each separately (2,4 6wt%). It perceived that with increase i...

Silica exists in Rice husk, an agriculture waste, as a naturally occurring phase. In first step, acidic pre-treatment and calcination of the rice husk were performed to obtain nano-silica, in which various sizes of the nano-silica, totally with sizes under 80 nm, were achieved. Second, to reduce nano-silica to elemental Si and subsequently formation of the composite, Mg used as the reducing age...

Website : www.jphmr.com Quick Response Code : for more than 3 million people in Asia, and India ranks next only to China in Paddy production (about 40% of total grains). Since paddy cannot be consumed raw and needs to be processed, more than 1.5 lack rice mills are functioning in India (2005-06), employing a 14 significant number of population . This population is at risk of exposure to grain d...

Physical, chemical, and mineralogical characterisation of as-received rice husk ash (RHA) samples sourced from four rice-growing regions (North, South, East, West) India is presented. Valorised RHA was obtained through controlled combustion at two temperature ranges (600–700 °C 650–700 °C) husks the North in an industry set up. Valorisation efficacy has been tested comparative valorised RHAs wi...

With the increasing demands of high surface irregularities and machining of composites, conventional machining processes are now being replaced by high speed Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines. In this paper aluminium silicate made from alloying aluminium and silicon oxide made from rice husk are used. The machining of the alloy on CNC machine is carried out. In addition to speed, feed a...
