The present study was carried out to investigate the impact of different substrates on primary and secondary hardening tissue culture raised banana plantlets. Among eight treatment combinations potting mixtures, PHT7 which contained cocopeat with combination perlite vermiculite (2:1:1) emerged as best media survival percentage 98.90% comparative better growth during hardening. Simultaneously ma...

as a catalyst in chemical reactions an abrasive; and as an Electrokinetic properties of expanded and unexpanded perlite agent in mixtures for oil well cementing (1). samples have been investigated using the microelectrophoresis However, no studies about the surface interactions that technique. Perlite samples yield practically no isoelectric point in occur at the interface when perlite is incor...

One of the most important problems encountered in cultivation cut flower gladiolus is soil-borne diseases and pests. This problem substantially reduces yield quality. Soilless culture very limited for it has not been studied extensively. The characteristics growing media used soilless either directly or indirectly affect Therefore, quite essential to determine appropriate cultivation. At same t...

Due to the lack of scientific knowledge for the use of substrate and best fertilizing method in the growth of Araucaria excelsa, it is crucially important to find the most appropriate planting substrate and fertilizing method. The effect of conventional fertilizing method and the application of Fe nanofertilizer were studied on the growth of A. excelsa in which six fertilizing methods and three...

oriental hybrid lily “arabian red” mother scales were stored in moist cocopeat and perlite (1:1) for 3 or 5 months at 25 ̊c. the numbers of scale bulblets per mother scale were nearly identical in two durations. increasing storage duration promoted the growth of roots (number and length) and no. scales per scale bulblets. and, diameters of scale bulblets were more in longer storage duration (5 m...

This paper wants to know the effect of bending radius on distribution hardness, grain and microstructure surface area tensile stress compressive after bending, quenching tempering. Material testing helps determine analyze material quality. The research was conducted Hot Rolled Plate Steel with a 50 mm, 55 60 65 mm 70 measurement distance 1 2 3 highest value obtained at mm. After getting quench-...

abstract in order to provide optimal yield and quality of tomato fruit (lycopersicon esculentum mill. cv. beril), different growing media for soilless culture of tomato plants were studied. seedling of tomato (lycopersicon esculentum mill, cv. beril ) were cultivated in perlite, mixture of perlite with nh4-zeolite and with raw zeolite (z:p ratio 10v:90v) and fed by two nutrient sources: a) comp...

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the residual compressive and splitting tensile strength of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) containing perlite and polypropylene (PP) fiber subjected to high temperatures. Cylinder specimens were subjected to various temperature ranges of 100, 200, 400, 800, and 1,000°C. The mixtures were prepared with AAC cementitious materials conta...
