Conventionally, cast iron is the material used for high speed machine tool structures. As an alternate material to improve the structural properties, composite materials are being used, which are known to exhibit excellent thermal and mechanical properties. While selecting an alternate material, thermal conductivity is an important thermo physical property of the material that should be studied...

Cannabis contains a unique class of compounds known as the cannabinoids. Pharmacologically, the principal psychoactive constituent is Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The amount of THC in conjunction with selected additional cannabinoid compounds (cannabidiol/CBD, cannabinol/CBN), determines the strength or potency of the cannabis product. Recently, reports have speculated over the change in the ...

Alkyd resins were prepared into four different sets by varying the percentage concentrationof the glycerol content. Various properties such as the viscosity, Surface drying time, solubilityand color of the alkyd resins were evaluated for the various sets. The alkyd resin with the highestglycerol content was the most viscous, brownish in color and having the highest molecularweight this is due t...

A cyanate ester/microcapsule system with low cure temperature and self-healing " Abstract: Microcapsules filled with epoxy resin were blended into cyanate ester resin to produce systems with low cure temperature and self-healing capacity. A 4,4′-diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS) curing agent was adopted for the systems. The mechanical properties, thermal stability and self-healing ability of the sys...

New dental precious metal alloys for resin bonding without alloy surface modification were developed by adding base metals (In, Zn, or Sn). Before this, binary alloys of Au, Ag, Cu, or Pd containing In, Zn, or Sn were studied for water durability and bonding strength with 4-META resin. The adhesion ability of the binary alloys was improved by adding In equivalent to 15% of Au content, Zn equiva...

In the present study, the separation and purification characteristics of resveratrol from extract of peanut sprouts (PSE) on 11 macroporous adsorption resins were investigated. The results showed that ADS-5 offered better adsorption and desorption capacity for resveratrol than other tested resins. From the static experiments with ADS-5 resin, we found that the experimental data fitted best to t...

Electrospun veils from copolyethersulfones (coPES) were prepared as soluble interlaminar veils for carbon fiber/epoxy composites. Neat, resin samples were impregnated into coPES veils with unmodified resin, while dry carbon fabrics were covered with electrospun veils and then infused with the unmodified epoxy resin to prepare reinforced laminates. The thermoplastic content varied from 10 wt% to...

Syringopicroside is the major constituent in Folium syringae leaves with known pharmacological activities. In this study, a simple method for preparative separation of syringopicroside from F. syringae leaves with macroporous resins was developed. Adsorption characteristics of syringopicroside on six types of macroporous resins, including ADS-8, ADS-17, D141, NKA-9, HPD450, and HPD600, have bee...

In this article, the effect of combined temperature-concentration and shear rate conditions on the rheology of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs)/ RTM6-Epoxy suspension was investigated to determine the optimum processing conditions. The rheological behavior and cure kinetics of this nanocomposite are presented. Cure kinetics analysis of the epoxy resin and the epoxy resin filled with DWCN...
