In addition, using the Multi-gene genetic programming (MGGP) model, the burnability of clinker was predicted. The results of MGGP model indicated that the performance of the model for predicting the amount of free CaO (wt %) was acceptable. Moreover, using MGGP, a promising correlation was introduced for accurately calculating the amount of free CaO (wt %). The performance of this correlation was compared with FL-Smidth, and it was established that the average errors of MGGP correlation and FL-Smidth equation were 2.95 and 7.45 %, respectively.","PeriodicalId":9793,"journal":{"name":"Chemistry & Chemical Technology","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76664138","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 was found that the optimal silica gel content in the polymer matrix is 10 wt %. The morphology of the steel surface of friction after friction interaction with PC based on aromatic polyamide and silica gel was studied. The formation of an antifriction film on the steel surface of friction was discovered, which contributes to a decrease in the friction coefficient, temperature on the friction surface, and the linear wear intensity of the studied PC. The influence of the load and sliding speed on the main tribotechnical characteristics of the PC-steel friction pair has been studied. Mathematical laws were derived that describe the influence of the main external factors (load and sliding speed) on the friction coefficient and intensity of linear wear rate of the studied friction pair.

It was shown that sorption-photocatalytic properties of TiO2 significantly depend on a phase composition, surface acidity, specific surface area and porosity. It was found that the amorphous TiO2 has improved adsorption properties, while crystalline TiO2 is characterized by enhanced photocatalytic properties.

The mechanism of combined action of GR and ultrasound on the formation of nanoparticles is proposed. Synthesized solutions of AgNPs are characterized by an absorption maximum at 410 nm, the value of which does not depend on the concentrations of precursors (AgNO3 and NaPA) and the duration of the process. The dimensions of nanoparticles that have a spherical shape do not exceed 30 nm. With increasing concentration of surfactant, there is a tendency to decrease in size. The rate of synthesis of AgNPs increases almost in proportion to the concentration of AgNO3 in the solution, while the effect of NaPA concentration is negligible.
