In order to prepare basalt fibers-reinforced cement-based mortars with higher compatibility between reinforcement and matrix, fibers new surface treatments (sizing) were studied looking for enhanced interaction at the interphase cement matrix. As-received, calcinated, activated silanized (by three silane aqueous solutions: i) ?-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, APTES; ii) ?-aminopropylmethyldiethoxys...

This study used morphological analysis to identify the materials for wall plaster in Goa-ri Tomb and elucidate manufacturing techniques by determining processing conditions ingredients through a calcination experiment. A glossy nacreous layer (or folia layer) an adductor muscle scar were identified on ventral of shell. The shell section was confirmed form lens-like prismatic chalky inserted bet...

The photocatalytic activity of polymeric carbon nitride (CN) is strongly tied to its surface area, morphology, optical, and electronic properties. Herein, a straightforward approach adjusting the properties morphology CN materials by fine tuning their content while preserving high area proposed. To do so, supramolecular assemblies based on monomers together with an additional carbon-rich monome...

Zeolites Na-A and Na-X are important synthetic zeolites widely used for separation and adsorption in industry. It is of great significance to develop energy-efficient routines that can synthesize zeolites Na-A and Na-X from low-cost raw materials. Coal fly ash (CFA) is the major residue from the combustion of coal and biomass containing more than 85% SiO2 and Al2O3, which can readily replace th...

In spite of the numerous advances in development H2 and O2 evolutions upon water splitting, separation from still remains a severe challenge. Herein, novel dual-functional nanocatalysts Pd/carbon nanosphere (CNS), obtained via immobilization ultrafine Pd nanoparticles onto CNS, are developed employed for both selective generation HCOOH dehydrogenation evolution H2O2 decomposition. these reactio...

Currently, most concrete industries use conventional cement (Ordinary Portland Cement) as a binding material which involves natural resource depletion, colossal CO2 emissions, and huge energy supply. The present study addresses this critical issue by using stone dust (sun-dried calcinated) water treatment sludge to replace partly in M20-grade production. environmental impact of ready-mixed (RMC...

Bhasmas are unique Ayurvedic-metallic preparations with herbal juices/fruits, widely recommended to treat variety of chronic ailments. Trivanga bhasma, a calcinated preparation, is used to treat Diabetes mellitus and as Diuretic. In the present research an attempt has been made to carry out a comparative standardization of formulated Trivanga bhasma (TB1) prepared as per Ayurvedic formulary and...

P25 film, prepared by a facile dip-coating method without any binder, was further developed in a recirculating reactor for quinoline removal from synthetic wastewater. Macroporous foam Ni, which has an open three-dimensional network structure, was utilized as a substrate to make good use of UV rays. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the coate...
