The inclusion and mechanical properties of the structural thick-plate specimens were evaluated according to vacuum time. The nitrogen in the converter had an effect after the RH process, and as the vacuum time of the RH process increased, the nitrogen content also increased. The nitrogen in the continuous casting (CC) decreased more than that in the converter, and as the vacuum time increased, the hydrogen decreased. Al2O3·CaO, MnS and Al2O3·MgO inclusions were observed in the structural thick plate. The average size of the oxides was (6.1 to 33.46) μm, while the average size of the Al-O-based inclusions was (4.26 - 6.3) μm. The mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation, were affected by the vacuum time of the RH process with 10 min being the best. The micro-Vickers hardness showed dispersion regardless of the vacuum time of the RH process, which can be explained by the Weibull probability distribution. From the shape and scale parameters, although the specimen with the vacuum time of the RH process of 10 min showed a large dispersion in the micro-Vickers hardness, the characteristic value of 63.2 % was the best.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":"132 1","pages":"45 - 55"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86066599","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}

This study is being done with the objective of examining the impact of this fiber at different weight percentages (0, 2, 3%, and 4%) on the mechanical behavior, durability, and thermophysical properties of the produced blocks. The results obtained indicated an increase in thermal conductivity, from 2.75 W/mK for the blocks without wheat straw fiber to 0.398 W/mK for those getting 4% of the wheat straw fiber, signifying an improvement in thermal insulation. While retaining the low performance threshold required by the earth construction standard, this improvement was accompanied by an average decrease in mechanical performance.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":"46 1","pages":"131 - 148"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85155525","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}

These wastes, when spread through soil/water affect public health. This work focuses on the use of solid industrial waste from herbal medicine and TiO2 manufacturing industries to produce iron oxide incorporated biochar, which can be served as adsorbent and low cost catalyst for many reactions. Biochar was produced by the slow pyrolysis of waste collected from herbal manufacturing units using tubular furnace at 550°C at a heating rate of 5°C/min. The iron oxide waste collected from Kerala Minerals and Metals Limited, Kerala, India (KMML), was incorporated into the produced biochar by using planetary ball mill apparatus. Structural and elemental analysis of produced biochar and Fe2O3 incorporated biochar was conducted using XRD, SEM and SEM-EDS, BET surface area analysis, ICP-OES, and CHNS analysis. The H/C ratio of prepared biochar shows it has a rectangular layered structure of 50*50 aromatic cluster size. The changes in bonds and groups before and after metal incorporation were studied using FTIR spectroscopic analysis and temperature stability of prepared samples were analyzed using TGA. The molecular structure of produced biochar and changes in their bond length was studied and optimized employing Avogadro and Chemcraft software. The BET analysis shows the surface area of biochar become increased after the metallic incorporation. The same results were concluded from the molecular modelling data obtained from Chemcraft software. These results proved that the biochar surface area and pore volume can be increased by incorporation of iron oxide from industrial waste.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":"42 1","pages":"171 - 184"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86703685","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 cold pressing process of micro-units can prepare surface textures at low cost, in large quantities, and with high efficiency, but the micro-pillar array mold required for the cold pressing process is difficult to prepare. In this study, the influence of mask electrochemical processing parameters on the height and height uniformity of the micropillar array was studied by orthogonal experiment on the 42CrMo alloy steel. Four main factors are designed in the orthogonal experiment, namely voltage, duty cycle, frequency, and mask spacing, and each factor is set to three levels. The results of the range analysis show that: voltage and duty cycle are positively correlated with the height of the microcolumn, but negatively correlated with uniformity, and when the duty cycle is 50%, the uniformity of the microcolumn decreases sharply; The height and uniformity of the microcolumns increase with the increase of mask spacing. The height of the microcolumn is positively correlated with the frequency, and the uniformity of the microcolumn first increases and then decreases with the increase of frequency. Therefore, in order to meet the height and uniformity requirements at the same time, the grey correlation analysis method was used to obtain the optimal processing parameters: 35 V (voltage), 30% (duty cycle), 300 um (spacing), and 5 kHz (frequency). The average height of the microcolumns prepared by this parameter is 57.632 um and the microcolumn has excellent high uniformity.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":"47 1","pages":"73 - 86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84357979","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}

In addition to the reservoir's functional capacity steadily decreasing as sediment settles in it, silt removal is a sensitive and challenging process that frequently necessitates taking the reservoir out of service, which is practically unachievable in dry and semi-arid regions. De-silting by hydraulic dredging has recently become a necessity to increase their longevity. But during this operation there are load loss exists so it is necessary to find solutions to reduce it. The present paper revealed that use the Sodium Tripolyphosphate as a reducing agent of the friction factor during the hydraulic dredging of dams. To carry out this study, a rheumatic characterization of dams sediments and dams sediments -sodium tripolyphosphate mixtures was carried out using a torque controlled rheometer (Discovery Hybrid Rheometer DHR2 from TA instrument). The flow curves as a function of dose of sodium tripolyphosphate added to dam sediments were analysed by the modified Cross model. It is clearly shown, in this work, when the quantity of sodium tripolyphosphate is less than of 0.4 % causes a decrease in the yield stress, the zero shear rate viscosity (lower Newtonian plateau) and the infinite shear rate viscosity (upper Newtonian plateau). However, when dose of sodium tripolyphosphate is greater than the critical dose, the the yield stress, the zero shear rate viscosity (lower Newtonian plateau) and the infinite shear rate viscosity (upper Newtonian plateau) are increased. As a result, this study find that the increase on thixotropic behavior of dams sediments is occurred by the addition of sodium tripolyphosphate in a concentration ranging between 0.2 wt% and 0.8 wt% to 40 wt% and 45 wt% of dams sediments. The study also demonstrated that adding of 0.4 wt% of sodium tripolyphosphate to 40 wt% and 45 wt% dam sediments decreased the friction factor by 96% and 25% respectively.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":"15 1","pages":"111 - 120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85332128","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 phenomenon of visible quantum harvesting via DC was observed in synthesized phosphor for the Gd3+–Eu3+ pair. In the process of quantum harvesting, the two visible light photons are emitted per absorbed VUV photon. This phenomenon occurred upon the 190 nm excitation of Gd3+ at the 6GJ level through a two-step energy transfer from Gd3+ to Eu3+ by cross-relaxation and sequential transfer of the remaining excitation energy. The consequences are that the quantum efficiency of the K2Gd0.97Zr (PO4)3:3mol% Eu3+ phosphor in the energy transfer process from Gd3+ to Eu3+ could reach 233%. The quantum efficiency goes to more than 200% (i.e., 233%) at just low concentration Eu3+ ions (i.e. 3% only). This novelty was found in the prepared phosphor. Therefore, the phosphor K2Gd0.97Zr (PO4)3:3mol% Eu3+ was a potential quantum harvester and potential candidate for mercury free fluorescent lamp and plasma display panel.","PeriodicalId":7271,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"101 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88559959","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}
