Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Affecting Chemo-physical and Rheological Behaviour of Zr44-Ti11-Cu10-Ni10-Be25 Metal Glassy Alloy Supercooled LiquidsApicella Antonio, Aversa RaffaellaSegregation by selective cold crystallizations and glass transition changes in Zr44-Ti11-Cu10-Ni10-Be25 metal supercooled metastable liquid annealed at different temperatures have been theoretically correlated to melt viscosity modifications. Crystallization behavior has been found to be principally related to the high mobility and smaller Be, Cu and Ni atoms. Multiple exothermal peaks in isothermal DSC annealing’s have been observed in these bulk … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 25 Feb 2016 · 8,142 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Schiff Bases with Pyridine Core: Spectral, Thermal and Optical CharacterizationsSie-Tiong Ha, Lay-Khoon Ong, Yip-Foo Win et al.Problem statement: Numerous studies have been conducted on the Schiff base's alkyl and alkyloxy possessing aromatic core. However, the thermo tropic properties of Schiff base's ester (or alkanoyloxy) with pyridine core was rare studied. Approach: To study spectral, thermal and optical behaviors of Schiff base ester possessing heterocyclic (pyridine) terminal core. A series of 4-[(pyridin-3-ylmethylene) amino] phenylalkanoates were prepared and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,464 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNucleation and Crystal Growth Rates of Struvite in DTM Type Crystallizer with a Jet-Pump of Descending Suspension Flow in a Mixing ChamberJoanna Koralewska, Krzysztof Piotrowski, Boguslawa Wierzbowska, Andrzej MatyniaThe kinetic data concerning reaction-crystallization of struvite from diluted water solutions of Mg2+, NH4+ and PO43- ions in a continuous DTM-type liquid jet-pump crystallizer with internal circulation of suspension are presented and discussed. The measurements were performed with the assumption of minimal value of unit power of a jet-pump’s feeding stream, providing thus a minimal level of internal circulation intensity. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,957 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNear Critical Carbon Dioxide Sorption Induced Crystallization in PETAversa Raffaella, Apicella AntonioNear critical carbon dioxide sorption equilibria at 50°C and pressures up to 40 atms are analyzed and interpreted on the basis of the multiple sorption mechanisms possible in a glassy amorphous and semi crystalline polymer. Varying the penetrant-polymer testing temperature and external pressure it is possible to meet the full range of possible sorption behavior, from ideal Fickian diffusion to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Jun 2016 · 8,006 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth Inhibition of Struvite Crystals in the Presence of Herbal Extract Boerhaavia diffusa LinnC. K. Chauhan, M.J. Joshi, A. D.B. VaidyaProblem statement: The formation of a urinary stone, known as nephrolithiasis, urolithiasis, renal calculi or kidney stone is a serious, debilitating problem in all societies throughout the world. Struvite or Ammonium Magnesium Phosphate Hexahydrate (AMPH) is one of the components of urinary stone (calculi). Struvite stones are commonly found in women. Struvites form in humans as a result of urinary … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,990 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeochemical Distribution of Trace Metals and Assessment of Anthropogenic Pollution in Sediments of Old Nakagawa River, Tokyo, JapanH.M. Zakir, Naotatsu Shikazono, Kazuo OtomoThe geochemical distributions of cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) were examined in sediments collected from Old Nakagawa River (NR), Tokyo, Japan. A widely used 5-step sequential extraction procedure was employed for the fractionation of the metals and the concentrations were measured in the liquid extracts by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The association … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,453 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordContinuous Flow Synthesis of Zeolite-A from Coal Fly Ash Utilizing Microwave Irradiation with Recycled Liquid StreamSalman Bukhari, Sohrab RohaniCoal Fly Ash (CFA) was converted to zeolite using continuous microwave reactors while minimizing the wastewater produced during the zeolitization process. At bench scale, a continuous flow tubular microwave reactor was used to explore the effect of microwave irradiation on the crystallinity of the product. The waste water was reused in consecutive runs and Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) analysis was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 19 Jun 2017 · 7,237 accessesView PDF Cite
