Porous ceramics were produced by compaction method of Nigerian clay and cassava starch. The samples were prepared by adding an amount from 5 to 30%wt of cassava starch into the clay and sintered at temperature of 900-1300°C. The influence of cassava starch content on the bulk density and apparent porosity was studied. The result of XRD and DTA/TGA shows that the optimum sintering temperature was found to be 1300°C. The percentage porosity increased from 12.87 to 43.95% while bulk density decreased from 2.16 to 1.46g/cm3 with the increase of cassava starch from 5 to 30%wt. The effect of sintering temperature and cassava starch content improved the microstructure in terms of porosity and the thermal properties of porous clay for various applications which requires a specific porosity.

Sodium acrylate (NaAA) and acrylamide (AM) were grafted onto poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) using potassium persulfate as an initiator, Graft copolymerization namely poly (vinyl alcohol)-g-poly (acrylamide/sodium acrylate) (PVA-g-PAM/SAC). The poly (vinyl alcohol)-g-poly (vinylamine/sodium acrylate) (PVAMC) was prepraed by Hofmann rearrangement.The PVAMC homogeneous membrane was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The water resistance of the PVAMC membranes is the best when pH of the PVAMC solutions was 4, at that time the numbers of-NH3+ and-COO- groups trended to be equal, so the isoelectric point was pH=4. At 90 °C the pervaporation of PVAMC composite membrane was tested and showed that the separation factor and the permeate flux were about 1001 and 1341 g/(m2·h) for 90wt% ethanol aqueous solution, and they were about 1297 and 1040 g/(m2·h) for 90wt% isopropanol aqueous solution.
