BACKGROUND AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The success of any direct-tableting procedure is strongly affected by the quality of the crystals used in the process. Ibuprofen is a poorly compactible drug with a high tendency for capping. In order to use ibuprofen in direct compression formulations, physico-mechanical properties of ibuprofen should be improved considerably. The aim of the present inve...

This work is devoted to identifying the patterns of influence vulcanization accelerator N-cyclohexyl-benzothiazyl-sulfenamide (CBS) on technological, physico-mechanical, and thermo-physical properties vulcanizates based styrene-butadiene rubber. It was found that a decrease in content decreases maximum torque, noticeably longer time required for optimum absence CBS. The thermal conductivity inc...

the oil extracted from three major canola cultivars (hyolla401, hyolla420 and rgs003) grown in golestan province was analyzed for physico-chemical properties, fatty acid composition, minerals content, and stability during 16 weeks of storage. according to the results, the highest iodine value and refractive index belonged to hyolla401. the highest saponification value was observed in hyolla420....

in this study, micromorphological properties of some samples collected from pedons polluted with petroleum refinery wastes and some adjacent unpolluted pedons were studied. after description of the studied pedons, disturbed and undisturbed samples were collected for physicochemical and micromorphological analyses. the results showed that the physicochemical properties (i.e. structure, bulk dens...

This article reports the effects of gamma irradiation (dose ranges 0.1-10 kGy from 60Co source) on the characteristics of solid gelatin and the physico-mechanical, microstructural and bioactive properties of the scaffold prepared from irradiated gelatin solution. FTIR, intrinsic viscosity, bloom strength, thermal properties, SEM, tensile properties, water uptake ability and antimicrobial activi...

In this research, different experimental techniques have been used to determine the strength of four types of travertines, selected from Hamedan and Markazi Provinces, west and central parts of Iran respectively. For this purpose, after sample preparation and assessment of mineral properties, the selected samples were subjected to physical and mechanical tests with special reference to two majo...

To improve the bonding strength between adhesive and enhance the performance of composite board made from corn stalk rinds, a method for preparing three-layer composite boards was proposed. Accordingly, corn stalk rinds with the epidermis removed, were used as the core layer, while crushed aggregates from the epidermis were used as the surface layer of the composite board. Single-factor and ort...
