Sieve Residue Sieve residue refers to non-dispersable contaminants (such as coke, refractory particles, water soluble salts and metal oxides) and is expressed as a percentage of the carbon black by weight. Sixty and 325 Mesh sieves are used for this test. The resulting grit can cause blemishes and may affect the appearance and performance of some rubber and plastic products. The 325 Mesh grit i...

bonding to dentin is a promising property, which can prevent leakage and improve the sealing ability of endodontic filling materials. resilon was developed and recommended initially because the existing root canal filling materials did not bond to root canal dentin. since its introduction in 2004, numerous reports have been published regarding various aspects of this material. this article aime...

Physicochemical properties of a mineral-based gasoline engine oil have been monitored at 0, 500, 1000, 2000, 3500, 6000, 8500, and 11500 kilometer of operation. Tracing has been performed by inductively coupled plasma and some other techniques. At each series of measurements, the concentrations of twenty four elements as well as physical properties such as: viscosity at 40 and 100°C; viscosity ...

in arid and semi-arid ecosystems, shrubs may act as fertility islands but theireffect may vary depending on their morphology and ecological impacts. this research wasaimed to study effect of three shrubs scariola orientalis, astragalus heratensis, and rosapersica on soil properties and on the microclimate conditions (temperature, luminance, andsoil moisture) of their understory in the steppe ra...

erosion is considered as a main problem for the loss of arable land around the world. as the world arable land is reaching its limit, marginal areas, such as those prone to wind erosion, have gained importance for agricultural use. a simple and effective way of restoring wind eroded soils is addition of organic materials. sewage sludge can be an effective way to solve this problem. the effect o...

bituminous emulsion insulators are types of bituminous emulsions groups composed of different grades of bitumen emulsified in water by bentonite and emulsifiers at 80-90oc. these emulsions are water resistant after drying andtheir physical and mechanical properties are superior in comparison to bitumen properties. iranian climate, because of variety and extreme variations in temperature imposes...
