Freezing point is one of the crucial properties used to characterize the performance of coolant. Instrumental methods are often complex and require expensive equipment. For selection of right coolant mixture there was a need for systematic study of aqueous-glycol-salt solution over a wide range of composition. The research work in this paper presents a novel and rapid way for freezing point characterization of the ternary coolant mixture. The freezing behavior of ternary mixture was studied for different blends of ethylene glycol (EG), propylene glycol (PG), sodium chloride (NaCl) and water. Two sets of ternary mixture TM1 (EG-NaCl-water) and TM2 (PG-NaCl-water) were evaluated experimentally at various concentrations of glycol and NaCl. Effect of glycol and salt concentration on freezing point depression was analyzed. The results demonstrated that ternary mixtures required less EG/PG for cost effective formulation of secondary coolant for different cooling application in dairy and food processing industry.","PeriodicalId":18247,"journal":{"name":"Material Science Research India","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74584997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The material has been characterised via infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, electron microscopy (FESEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The FTIR spectrum reveals a peak at 1126 cm-1, which corresponds to the S-O bending mode, and a peak at 663 cm-1, which represents sulphide stretching. According to XRD analysis, cobalt sulphide formed with the CoS1.097 configuration. FESEM study reveals that cobalt sulphide hexagonal sheets with a thickness of less than 100 nm have been prepared that are further arranged in a floral pattern. Cobalt and sulphide concentrations were found to be proportional in EDX analyses. Further, Electrochemical testing was performed with a two-electrode setup, 6M KOH as the electrolyte, and various current collectors (including nickel foam and aluminium foil). The galvanostatic charge-discharge characteristics and capacitance values have been compared using impedance spectroscopy and other techniques. Details of the analysis are presented.","PeriodicalId":18247,"journal":{"name":"Material Science Research India","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74651362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fillers can be dispersed by melt or solution processing methods. Solution-based mixing offers various combinations including ultrasonication, mechanical stirring, or high shear mixing. Planetary high shear mixing is a simple method with high dispersion performance. Dispersion and wetting of the fillers are provided by not only planetary shear movement of the mixer but also by the decrease in viscosity of the polymer phase because of high shear. Although that is advantageous for the dispersion of nanofillers, it might be challenging for the particles that have morphology with loosely bonded layers. To observe the effects of high shear mixing on expanded vermiculite (VMT) filled styrene-[ethylene-(ethylene-propylene)]-styrene (SEEPS) flexible composites, two different VMTs were used with different particle sizes at various VMT ratios from 1 to 30 wt%. Morphological, structural, thermal, mechanical properties, flame spread character of the composites, and viscosity of the solutions were analyzed. From morphological analysis, high shear mixing was found to be effective in terms of decreasing particle size and filler dispersion. While mechanical properties showed decrease, thermal stability, and flame retardancy of the composites increased.

It absorbs visible light due to its low band gap (2.7 eV) and π-π, 2D layered electronic structure. 4 The coupling of g-C3N4 and ZnO forms a novel scaffold nanocomposite which is a sensible way to improve light absorptivity, better surface area and charge carrier separation. The studies show that the modified ZnO NPs by Ag doping coupled with g-C 3 N 4 (Ag-ZnO/gC 3 N 4 NCs) produce a composite that shows improved properties of the photocatalyst. Antibacterial materials are frequently used because they can protect human beings from many diseases that are initiated due to bacterial exposure or contact. The synthesized NCs produced considerable zones of inhibition which point towardtheir good antibacterial activity. The reactive oxygen species damage the cellular membrane, leading to cell death.The ZnO NPs and their nanocomposites of Ag and g-C 3 N 4 are synthesized by a simple cost-effective co-precipitation method. This method provides a high yield with good purity of material and beneficial than other methods because the reagents are mixed at the molecular level so as to achieve the best stoichiometry and morphology with the desired size of thematerial. 5 The capping agent SDS is an anionic surfactant, it affects the morphology and aggregation ofmaterial which enhances the photocatalytic activity.

Piston ring segments with hardness 410 HV, Young’s Modulus of 250 Gpa and surface roughness of 0.482 µm were used for the experimentation. The fiber laser system (Marko Laser, Germany), was used for the fabrication of textures on the cast iron segments having specifications like power of 20W, wavelength of 1062nm, maximum frequency 200KHz, maximum speed range of 15000 mm/s. The laser frequency, power, speed and number of loops are the input parameters which were varied to find its effect on the texture dimensions. The approximate target values to be achieved for circular texture dimensions are texture diameter of 100µm (bilateral tolerance of 10µm), texture depth of 20µm (bilateral tolerance of 3µm) and texture surface roughness of 3µm (bilateral tolerance of 0.5µm) respectively. A confocal microscope with three dimensional surface profiler was used to measure the surface topography of the textured surfaces. It has been observed that with increase in laser power initially texture diameter has been reduced but found to be increased for the maximum power condition, while dimple depth and surface roughness of the textures found to be increased gradually. Also with increase in frequency has not a significant effect on the texture diameter but the texture depth and surface roughness has been enhanced drastically. In the similar way with increase in the laser speed and number of loops, initially there was decrease in the texture dimensions but as the speed and number of loops increased the texture dimensions also has a slight enhancement on it. It may be concluded that laser power and laser frequency has a significant impact on the texture dimensions as compared to laser speed and number of loops. Also it can be summarized that for achieving the targeted values of the texture dimensions like texture diameter, texture depth and texture surface roughness on the piston ring surface the laser power of 12W, 8W and 8W, laser frequency of 25 KHz, 25 KHz and 20 KHz, laser scan speed of 170 mm/sec, 140 mm/sec and 110 mm/sec and number of laser loops of 5, 4 and 2 may be used respectively.
