introduction: endodontic k-files are major tools for cleaning and shaping of the root canal systems. as there are various k-files available in iranian market, the physical properties of the five available brands were investigated to assist the clinician when selecting suitable endodontic k-files according to the intended application. materials and methods: physical properties (including debris ...

tomato is one of the most important crops with a yeild of 98. 8 million tons in more than 128,000 hectare of area under cultivation and 3.7 million tons production in iran. with regard to technological advancement ( improvement, development ) and increasing demand of tomato and their products in iran and all over the world, it is necessary to know about affecting factors on production, process ...

In recent years, the nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) particles have been used successfully for the degradation of hydrocarboncompounds and remediation of other pollutants. Nevertheless, as far as we know, there is no specific study on the improvement of thegeotechnical properties of contaminated soils with hydrocarbon compounds by NZVI. This study used NZVI particles to remove gasoil in a cla...

new edible composite films formed from salep (orchis mascula) and 10%, 20%, and 30% (w/w) oleic acid were prepared by emulsification with the aim of improving the water vapor barrier and mechanical properties of the film. as oleic acid concentration increased up to 30% (w/w), oxygen permeability (27%), elongation at break (86%) and thickness (2%) of salep films increased significantly and the t...

in this study, some seed physical properties of two sugar beet varieties, shirin and gadouk (436), were evaluated as a function of moisture content. physical properties included length, width, thickness, arithmetic and geometric mean diameters, sphericity, thousand seed weight, angle of repose, terminal velocity, true density, bulk density, porosity, and coefficient of friction. four moisture c...

owing to the importance and necessity of identifying soil properties in arid rangeland management, and the variableeffects of different kinds of herbivores on soil, this study compares some of the physical and chemical properties ofsoil between two regions experiencing livestock and wildlife grazing in the desert rangelands of kalmand-bahadoranin yazd province. the key areas in two regions expe...

the friction properties of granular materials play an important role in the determination of specifications for designing hoppers, transporting passages, dryers, silos and machines through which grain flows. in this study, the angle of repose and internal friction coefficient were determined for three common wheat varieties (sardary, gaspard and saysoter) at four moisture contents (12, 15, 18, ...
