Polypropylene fibers are added to concrete improve the toughness of material. Manufactured sand and fly ash with high content used reduce impact on environment cost. The response surface method (RSM) was design test study mechanical bending properties polypropylene-fiber-reinforced high-performance (PPFHPC). Three process variables, including polypropylene fiber (1%, 1.5%, 2%), (45%, 60%, 75%),...

Three binders, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyvinylpyrrolidone, and polyacrylic acid (PAA), are studied to elucidate the principal fundamental features giving rise an excellent binder in a polymer–stainless-steel particle array, used context of jetting. Using out-of-printer screening approach, samples were compared based on compression tests, specifically 0.2% yield strength as function void volu...

In this article, the potential of carbon nanocones/disks as coating for solid-phase microextraction has been evaluated for the first time. The nanostructures were immobilized on a stainless steel needle by means of an organic binder. The fiber coating obtained was ca. 50 microm of thickness and 35 mm in length. The evaluation of the sorbent capacity was carried out through the determination of ...

Rheological characteristics of powder injection molding PIM feedstocks play an important role in final properties of manufactured MMCs. In this study, six formulations composed of magnesium and SiC powder (99:1 wt.%) and a specific binder  were prepared to investigate the influence of binder composition, powder to binder ratio, time and temperature on rheological properties of the feedstock. Th...

In this paper, we present a declarative language and system for describing and implementing secure networks. Our proposed language, SeNDlog, is an attempt at unifying Binder, a logic-based language for access control in distributed systems, and Network Datalog (NDlog), a database query language for declarative networks. The contributions of this paper are as follows. First, we highlight the sim...

The aim of this article is to test the properties of foundry moulding sands with a new bicomponent organic binder. The new binder is the composition of phenol-furfuryl resin, commonly used in foundry practice and biodegradable material – polycaprolactone. The paper presents the research of strength properties, thermal destruction and thermal deformation of moulding sands with a new bicomponent ...

This paper reports the substitution of polyolefin backbone binder components with low melting temperature carnauba wax for powder injection moulding applications. The effect of various binder compositions of Al₂O₃ feedstock on thermal degradation parameters is investigated by thermogravimetric analysis. Within the experimental framework 29 original feedstock compositions were prepared and the s...
