Dimerization process is essential for producing copolymers. The features of dimerization process like thermal-oxidative degradation should be well known to reach maximum efficiency and a superior reactor design. Also, the degradation mechanism of biodegradable polymers is important during sterilization processes. Thermal-oxidative degradation of PGA, PLLA, and their binary copolymers was invest...

Pyrolysis is an applicable method that has been widely used to recover hydrocarbons from Used Lubricating Oil (ULO). However, large-scale application of this approach has been limited by its noticeably energy and time consuming nature. In the present research, it has been attempted to modify the energy and time requirements of ULO pyrolysis using the catalytic effects of metal oxide nanoparticl...

Calculation of excess quantities of ethylene glycol + water binary fluid systems at seven absolute temperatures (293.15 to 353.15) K from experimentally determined values of density and shear viscosity were presented in previous work. The examination of related functions beside the quality of correlation from several equations on these experimental values has also been reported. Considering...

the kinetic of the heterogeneous chemical reaction of aluminum hydroxide and fluosilicic acid was studied. it was found that the diffusion of the reactants through the porous silica coating to the aluminum hydroxide surface and the interfacial chemical reaction between the diffusing reactant and aluminum hydroxide platelets control the overall reaction rate. these two phenomena were studied and...

the present study investigated the influence of air temperature and velocity on the drying kinetics and specific energy consumption during fluidized bed drying of soybean at 80, 100, 120 and 140ºc and airflow rates of 1.8, 3.1 and 4.5 m s-1. six mathematical models for describing the fluidized bed drying behavior were investigated. the value of the drying rate coefficient (k) increased with inc...

Oils of vegetable origin are of great importance in food, soap, and cosmetic industries and they may also be used as lubricants and raw materials for biodiesel production depending on their viscosity and thermal stability. This work provides insight into the fatty acid components, physicochemical properties and thermal stability of some refined vegetable oils. The Saponification values, peroxid...

The stacking mechanism of the 1H-4H proton transfer in 4-pyridone, 4-pyridinthione and p-aminopyridineare constructed. For quantitative description of this process by means of the quamtumchemicalmethod density functional theory (DFT) the activation energy (

Schiff base complexes of transition metals are of particular interest to inorganic chemists because of their structural, spectral and chemical properties, which are often strongly dependant on the nature of the ligand structure. Large number of metal (II) complexes with Schiff-base ligands has been extensively studied for their interesting structural specialties, applications and properties. Th...
