in this study, hybrid of phenol formaldehyde-fish glue was used to replace the chemical resin in plywood manufacturing. for this purpose, fish glue was applied at three levels including 0, 10 and 20 percent based on the dry weight of resin. physical and mechanical properties of manufactured plywoods were measured. thickness swelling after 2 and 24 hours immersion in tap water, bending strength,...

in the present study, mechanical properties and low cycle fatigue behavior of a solid-solutionized aa6061 aluminum alloy produced by equal channel angular pressing (ecap) process were investigated. the grain refinement after two passes of ecap significantly increased the yield stress and ultimate tensile stress and decreased the ductility of the alloy. however, the improvement of low cycle fati...

copper–silver bimetallic strips were produced by cold roll welding process and were treated by diffusion annealing in the temperature range 250–800 ?c. the interface bonding strength was determined by bending and peeling tests, resistance, conductivity and micro hardness profiles were determined and microstructure in the interface region was observed by optical microscope. electrical resistance...

This study experimentally investigates the effect of processing parameters on mechanical properties of injection molded copolymer. This paper presents an experimental study on the effects of processing parameters including melt temperature, injection pressure and amount preliminary materials on tensile strength of injection molded copolymer PP-WGRT. Polypropylene (PP - supplied by T.P.C of Iran...

Estimating mechanical properties of concrete before designing reinforced concrete structures is among the design requirements. Steel fibers have a considerable effect on the mechanical properties of reinforced concrete, particularly its tensile strength. So far, numerous studies have been done to estimate the relationship between tensile strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) and ot...

The use of elastomer additives to solve the problems in oil well cementing has been investigated in recent years by several research groups in the petroleum industry. This study includes the laboratory examination of the effect of elastomer additives on the physical properties of heavy-weight oil well cement. In the research process, a candidate well is selected and the properties of the cement...

semiconducting carbon nanofibers (cnf) are prepared from three different sources, i.e., acetylene, ethanol, and cotton by the chemical vapor deposition (cvd) process. these fibers are having rich elastic, engineering and conductivity properties. fresh self-compacting concrete (scc) flows into place and around obstructions under its own weight to fill the formwork completely and self-compact, wi...
