However, it is rather difficult to obtain simultaneously high corrosion and wear resistance, since additional energy input usually leads to more homogeneous microstructure in coatings, which deteriorates mechanical hardness. In this work, flame remelting has been imposed to high velocity oxygen-fuel sprayed self-flux NiCrBSi coatings. The remelting effects on microstructure were characterized in terms of porosity and phase analysis. The microhardness, wear resistance and corrosive behaviors were compared among substrate steel, as-sprayed and as-remelted coatings. Results show that the lamellar boundaries and internal defects in the as-sprayed coatings have been eliminated by remelting. The coating porosity has substantially reduced from 7.36% to 0.75%, and a metallurgical bonding at the coating/substrate interface has been formed. Comparing with the as-sprayed coatings, the microhardness of the remelted coatings increases about 21% and the wear weight loss reduces about 42%. By flame remelting, the wear mechanism changes from furrow and abrasive wear to micro-cutting and local fracture. The remelted coatings have also exhibited better corrosion resistance by means of salt spraying and potentiodynamic tests.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140471890","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}

Twelve soil samples were collected from four routes connecting Ado-Ekiti. Index and compaction tests were performed on the natural and stabilized samples. The soil samples were classified according to AASHTO groups and eventually restructured into four (4) groups: A-6, A-7-6, A-4, and A-7-5. They were named samples A, B, C, and D respectively. The oxide compositions of the samples were determined. Lime was blended with soils at proportions of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8,10 %, and the optimal lime content (LimeOpt) was obtained. The LimeOpt + soil mixture was mixed with 2, 4, 6, 8,10 % of CBP. The Soil + LimeOpt + CBP mixtures were subjected to consistency limits and compaction tests. Plasticity index (PI) of soils A, B, C, and D was 14.19, 21.06, 11.64, and 14.19 % respectively, while the MDD was 1640, 1730, 1630, and 1631 kg/m3. Soil A, B, C, and D + LimeOpt all had reduced PIs of 7.68, 16.40, 5.04, and 12.05%, respectively. For the MDD of soil + LimeOpt mixtures, 1789, 1920, 1906, and 1898 kg/m3 were also found for Samples A, B, C, and D. Soil + LimeOpt + CBP showed that both the PI (from 0.6 to 81.7%) and MDD (from 0.1 to 14.6%) improved. On the other hand, the addition of lime to soils A, B, C, and D showed that 8% lime content offered the optimal CBR performance. Further addition of CBP to the soil + LimeOpt mixtures equally improved both the soaked and unsoaked CBR of soils A, B, C, and D predominantly with 6% CBP addition offering the peak performance. This suggests that CBP is viable and can save cost, mitigate environmental hazards, and complement lime. Strength and durability evaluation of the ternary mixture is however recommended.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140473197","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}

It has been found that through controlling of the Sn:OH precursor ratio is effective for the achievement of SnO phase. Compared to the pristine SnO2 nanoparticles, the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the nanocomposites show the p-n junction characteristics. The observation of rectification ratio 2.05 indicates the excellent rectifying property of the nanocomposites due to the presence of p-type SnO phase. Further, exploration of the I-V characteristics has revealed the dominance of space-charge limited current transport mechanism for the nanocomposites sample.

To develop a cost-effective encapsulating procedure, additional optimization is required. This study employed response surface methodology (RSM) to optimize the encapsulation of anthocyanin-rich extract from black rice bran. The extract was encapsulated through pre-gelation and polyelectrolyte complex formation processes. Box-Behnken design was employed to determine the optimum conditions for the encapsulation process with the following process variables: chitosan concentration, pH, and CaCl2 concentration. Chemical characteristics, surface morphology, and particle size were used to describe the resultant capsules, which were then subjected to phytochemical analysis. The optimal encapsulation conditions for anthocyanin were 6.30 mg/mL chitosan, pH 5.5, and 36 mM CaCl2, with a 51.20 % encapsulation efficiency. The developed anthocyanin-loaded nanocapsule has a high TPC (3.87 mg GAE/g) and potent antioxidant activity (5.69 mg TE/g). SEM images revealed a smooth surface area and spherical particles that clumped together, with an average particle size of 94.70 nm.
