This paper presents structures of timber-framed walls designed for passive houses, using natural and waste resources as insulation materials, such wool, wood fibers, ground paper, reeds (Phragmites communis), Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) wastes. The systems stud composed wool–ABS composite boards five types fillers (wool, ABS, reeds) were investigated to reach U-value requirements hous...

In recent years, the demand for tantalum capacitors has been increasing due to miniaturization of electronic devices. Tantalum capacitors, which use rare metal as capacitor element, are used in devices such cell phones because they smaller and have a higher capacity than conventional capacitors. Japan, there reports that minerals containing elements being extracted from discarded electrical equ...

Additive manufacturing (AM) by Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) provides an innovative method for complex geometry components. 3D printers have become easily accessible to the public. The technology used these is Modelling. majority of mainly use acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) fabricate objects. This study aims investigate influence some printing parameters like infill pattern (Tri-Hexag...

Two flame retarded plastics have been pyrolysed in the presence of two Zeolite catalysts to remove the organobromine compounds from the derived pyrolysis oil. The flame retarded plastics were, acrylonitrile – butadiene – styrene (ABS) that was flame retarded with tetrabromobisphenol A and high-impact-polystyrene (HIPS) that was flame retarded with decabromodiphenyl ether. The two catalysts inve...

Recently, 3D-printed polymeric materials have been successfully replacing the usual ones especially used in sliding systems like couplings. Among materials, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) can be competitive such application after 3D-printing. In this study, 3D printing was to produce samples from ABS PLA via fused deposition modelling (FDM) technology. Then fri...

Prosthesis is an artificial replacement for a person's missing limb to help regain mobility and the ability manage daily activities. The type of prosthetic covered in this project people with below-knee amputation (BKA). Muscle fatigue major issue amputees who lose lower after prolonged use limbs. Available designs prosthetics BKA are also expensive. This study aims design develop affordable co...

Electrochemical plating is the most widely used coating process for metalizing commodity polymers, such as acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS). Conventionally, ABS polymer pretreated in concentrated sulfochromic acid solution before to develop a highly porous surface topography that ensures adhesion. Unfortunately, using chromic produces extremely hazardous chemical waste, which costs manufac...
