blown bitumen (110/10) was mixed with heavy vacuum slops (h.v.s), 60/70 penetration grade bitumen and recycled isotactic polypropylene (ipp) at different levels. the resulting resins were used to impregnate non-woven poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers to form composites. the modulus and penetration grade of the resulting bituminous resins were determined. it was found that these bituminous res...

Abstract Paper presents the results of investigations on sorption capacity selected carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) microplastics fibers. Accumulation organic micropollutants such as PAHs is indicated one important problems in case present surface water, including sea water. Concentrations can reach even several mg/kg microplastics. An unrecognized problem are capacities mi...

Composites are a combination of two materials in which one of the material is Called the reinforcing phase, is in the form of fibers, sheets, or particles, and is Embedded in the other material called the matrix phase. composites have been used extensively in applications such as pipes, boats, aerospace, and pressure vessels etc. Research to get new composites of desired properties is under pro...

In recent years rapid development of infrastructures in metro cities compounded with scarcity of useful land and compelled the engineers to improve the properties of soil to bear the load transferred by the infrastructure e.g Buildings, bridges, roadways railways etc. The engineering techniques of ground improvement are removal and replacement, pre-compression, vertical drains, in-situ densific...

The opportunities for the national textile industry depend on ability to compete with producers from other countries. Not only in world market but also domestic market. This is indicated by flood of imported products, especially China, which offers low prices their products. However, local products are still able because they have better quality. PT. Sinar Pangjaya Mulia an export-oriented comp...
