in this study, the possibility of producing wood-plastic panels was studied using two different blending methods including melt blend and dry blend. wood-plastic panels were made from recycled high density polyethylene (as resin) and mdf waste (as natural fiber) at 60, 70 and 80% by weight filler loading. nominal density and dimensions of the panels were 1g/cm3 and 35×35×1 cm, respectively. the...

To study the feasibility of using two edible plant oils as diesel substitute a comparative study was made. Oils were exacted from the seeds of soyabean (Glycine Max, Family: Leguminoceae) and sunflower(Helianthus annuus, Family: Asteraceae/Compositeae). Oils were esterified (butyl esters) before blending with pure diesel in the ratio of 10:90, 15:85, 20:80, and 25:75 by volume. Pure diesel was ...

in natural gas treatment, the removal of co2 and h2s in acid gases is a critical concern. there are various purification technologies that can be used for the removal of acid gas impurities. absorption of acid gas into amines is one preferred method in gas industries. in the past, single amines was used, but recently in order to improve absorption performance, mixed amines with different solubi...

The presence of defects in cold mercerizing of cotton goods led to the creation of a new method, called hot mercerizing in which caustic soda solution is used at a high temperature. Hot mercerizing is successfully used in cotton blended with some other fibers. In cotton/polyester blend fabrics, this treatment serves a dual purpose: subjectively, it imparts a silklike &#10&#10&#10soft handle to ...

Biogenic amines (BA) are nitrogenous compounds that possess biological activity. The source of production is the microbial decarboxylation of amino acids. This compounds are found in various types of cheese. The aim of this work was to evaluate the BA content of some traditional cheeses in West Azerbaijan province Iran. For this purpose, 70 samples of Koopeh, 10 samples of Lighvan and 5 samples...

backgrounds and objectives: in recent years, food industries and scientists are about to decrease the energy intake of food products according to the rising rate in obesity and the problems of consuming high-caloric products. considering all the benefits the sucrose possess as a natural sweetener, due to some health issues such as, high blood pressure, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, tooth de...

carboxymethyl cellulose (cmc)-polyvinyl alcohol (pvoh) blend film was produced through casting. cellulose nanowhisker (cnw) was produced by means of acid hydrolysis of cotton linter and cmc-pvoh-cellulose nanowhiskers through which fully degradable bionanocomposites were prepared. prepared nanowhisker suspension contained rod like particles averaging lengths of 240 nm and diameters of 13 nm. an...

In the present study, Floating Drug Delivery Beads (FDDS) were prepared with sodium alginate/ starch blend as a matrix, sodium hydrogen carbonate as a pore forming agent, methyl cellulose as a binder and barium chloride solution as a hardening agent. In order to prepare the beads with different porosity and morphology the ratio between pore forming agent to polymer blend and ratio of the co...

1-substituted 1H-tetrazoles were efficiently synthesized under solvent-free conditions from the reaction of primary amines, triethylorthoformate, and sodium azide in the presence of Cu/C as a heterogeneous catalyst. Various amines including aromatic and heteroaromatic amines were used to afford the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. The characterization of corresponding product...
