The mineral industry uses tremendous amounts of water every year in the processing ores. Sustainable practices associated with ores are, therefore, critical importance. project described herein is first step toward producing a dry, particle-separation process based upon control and exploitation adhesive forces. In this research, goal to determine surface energy particles, further, whether solid...

Ionic liquid-based N-octadecyl-N'-octadecyl imidazolium iodide functionalized layered double hydroxide (LDH-IM) was synthesized for manufacturing high-performance epoxy nanocomposites. Nonisothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) performed to study cure kinetics of reinforced قث with LDH and LDH-IM. Incorporation Mg-Al-CO3 into hindered the curing reaction, as detected by dimensionless...

background: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of three different luting protocols on shear bond strength of computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (cad/cam) resin nanoceramic (rnc) material to dentin. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 30 disks were milled from rnc blocks (lava ultimate/3m espe) with cad/cam technology. the disks were subsequently c...

In this paper we study both market risks and non-market risks, without complete markets assumption, and discuss methods of measurement of these risks. We present and justify a set of four desirable properties for measures of risk, and call the measures satisfying these properties “coherent”. We examine the measures of risk provided and the related actions required by SPAN, by the SEC/NASD rules...

Abstract Repeated column chromatography using Sephadex LH-20, silica gel (SiO 2 ), and octadecyl SiO (ODS) as well preparative HPLC led to isolation of a new dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan along with four known ones, gomisin L2 ( 1 L1 M1 3 M2 4 ). Their chemical structures were fixed based on MS, IR, NMR data analyses. In addition, the stereochemistry atropisomers, absolute configuration axial ch...

This Article presents a quantitative comparison of the frictional performance for monolayers derived from n-alkanethiolates on gold and n-alkyl trichlorosilanes on silicon. Monolayers were characterized by pin-on-disk tribometry, contact angle analysis, ellipsometry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Pin-on-disk microtribometry provided frictional analysis at applied normal load...

The aim of our study was twofold: to immobilize an organosilicon quaternary ammonium salt (3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyldimethyl-octadecyl ammonium chloride, Si-QAC) on the surface of pure titanium and to investigate the antimicrobial activity of Si-QAC-immobilized titanium against microbial adherence and biofilm formation. The results of ToF-SIMS analysis of Si-QAC-titanium suggested the possibil...
