the main limiting factors in saline-sodic soils are high amounts of salts, low soil organic matter (som) and lowavailability of macro and micro-nutrients. the effect of different amounts of nano iron oxide powder and urban solidwaste compost coated sulfur (uswcs) on the chemical properties of a saline-sodic soil was investigated. the experimentwas conducted using a randomized complete block des...

BACKGROUND Angiogenin (ANG) is a potent stimulator of angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to fabricate an ANG-loaded scaffold and to evaluate its angiogenic and osteogenic effects. In this study, we fabricated an ANG-loaded scaffold using bovine bone powder and fibrin glue. We then evaluated the structural, morphological, and mechanical properties of the scaffold and the in vitro release pr...

Two types of ceramic-polymer composite thick films were deposited on Cu substrates by an aerosol deposition process, and their properties were investigated to fabricate optimized ceramic-based polymer composite thick films for application onto integrated substrates with the advantage of plasticity. When polymers with different mechanical properties, such as polyimide (PI) and poly(methyl methac...

The micro-scale joining of two different materials using two-component micro-powder injection molding (2C-µPIM) is an intriguing technique. formation defects in bi-materials at processing stages makes this technique challenging. This study presents the fabrication defect-free bi-material micro-parts containing hydroxyapatite (HA) and 3 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (3YSZ) via 2C-µPIM. Critica...

Light weight materials coupled to the need for cost-effective processing have combined to create a significant opportunity for aluminium powder metallurgy as its increasing interest. Aluminium alloy (AA 2219) metal matrix composite reinforced with multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) produced by powder metallurgy (P/M) technique was analysed and CNTs dispersion were traced. The micro hardness a...

Single crystals of potassium para-nitrophenolate were successfully grown by the slow evaporation method with dimension of 25x10x7 mm 3 . Proton NMR spectrum was recorded to elucidate the molecular structure. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) FT-Raman spectral studies have been performed to identify the functional groups. Structural analyses were carried out by powder x-ray diffraction pattern. ...
