The main product of ferroalloy plants is standard ferroalloys. They often do not have all the necessary service characteristics and are not very suitable for metal processing in a ladle. The developing progressive technology of steelmaking is forced to adapt to the existing range of ferroalloys, the standards for which have not been updated for 50 years or more. In addition, in recent years, the sources and markets of ferroalloy raw materials have changed, and their quality and content of leading elements have decreased. This makes it difficult or excludes the possibility of obtaining ferroalloys according to existing standards. In this regard, the production of more efficient ferroalloys of a new generation is required, suitable for progressive processes in the developing areas of ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy 795 and smelted from non-traditional types of domestic ore raw materials. These include complex or multicomponent ferroalloys containing, in addition to iron, two or more functional elements. Complex ferroalloys should be created in the most favorable combinations of component. It contributes to the necessary effective impact on the iron-carbon melt with a high degree of assimilation of useful elements in it. The creation of scientific foundations for the formation of new compositions of multicomponent ferroalloys with high consumer properties, and the development of physicochemical processes for obtaining these alloys from unconventional ore raw materials contributes to solving the problems of developing compositions of effective new generation ferroalloys and expanding the ore base of ferroalloy production. When using the developed method of designing the composition of complex ferroalloys using unconventional raw materials, melting technologies were developed; various alloys of the systems were obtained and applied on a laboratory and industrial scale: Fe – Si – Cr, Fe – Si – B, Fe – Si – Ba – Ca, Fe – Si – Al – Nb, Fe – Si – Ca – Mg, Fe – Si – V – Ca – Mn, Fe – Si – Al.

The purpose of this work is to implement a new approach to the description of the duration of melting (dissolution) of complex new generation ferroalloys during the deoxidation and doping of a metal melt. This approach is aimed at developing a methodology and criteria for the quantification and accounting of the micro-heterogeneity of multicomponent metal melts and their prediction on such important for steelmaking production characteristics as the melting time of ferroalloys, the description of the inter-mine interaction, which allows a deeper understanding of the process. deoxidation and refining of steel. In the work, the approach developed in the Institute of Ferrous Metallurgy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine to solve problems of modeling of non-conformities that relate the composition, structure and properties of melts is used in the work. It is based on the original concept of physicochemical modeling of the processes of interatomic interaction in melts and solutions, developed by E.V. Prihodko. According to it, metal melts are considered as chemically unified systems. Changing their composition affects the complex of physicochemical properties due to changes in the parameters of their electronic structure. The method of calculation of criteria (∆Zy and d), characterizing the degree of difference between the electronic and structural state of the melt, as a chemically unified system, from the mechanical mixture of their initial components and the parameter was used to evaluate and account for the influence of the micron homogeneity of the structure of the metal melts of ferroalloy production. ρl, which takes into account the cluster spin in metal melts. Using these criteria and the available experimental data, analytical dependences were obtained to calculate the melting time of complex (ma-manganese, vanadium, niobium and boromatic) ferroalloys of the new generation. This will allow them to evaluate their effectiveness of application, which is associated with the highest assimilation of the main elements that affect

At production of stainless steel expensive alloying elements, containing nickel, are used. To decrease the steel cost, substitution of nickel during steel alloying process by its oxides is an actual task. Results of analysis of thermodynamic and experimental studies of nickel reducing from its oxide presented, as well as methods of nickel oxide obtaining at manganese bearing complex raw materials enrichment and practice of its application during steel alloying. Technology of comprehensive processing of complex manganese-containing raw materials considered, including leaching and selective extraction out of the solution valuable components: manganese, nickel, iron, cobalt and copper. Based on theoretical and experiment studies, a possibility of substitution of metal nickel by concentrates, obtained as a result of hydrometallurgical enrichment, was confirmed. Optimal technological parameters, ensuring high degree of nickel recovery out of the initial raw materials were determined. It was established, that for direct steel alloying it is reasonable to add into the charge pellets, consisting of nickel concentrate and coke fines, that enables to reach the through nickel recovery at a level of 90%. The proposed method of alloying steel by nickel gives a possibility to decrease considerably steel cost at the expense of application of nickel concentrate, obtained out of tails of hydrometallurgical enrichment of manganese-bearing raw materials, which is much cheaper comparing with the metal nickel.

The currently observed development of medical science results from the constant search for innovative solutions to improve the health and quality of life of patients. Particular attention is focused on the design of a new generation of materials with a high degree of biocompatibility and tolerance towards the immune system. In addition, apart from biotolerance, it is important to ensure appropriate mechanical and technological properties of materials intended for intra-body applications. Knowledge of the above parameters becomes the basis for considerations related to the possibilities of choosing the appropriate polymer materials. The researchers' interest, as evidenced by the number of available publications, is attracted by nanobiocomposites based on chitosan and carbon nanotubes, which, due to their properties, enable integration with the tissues of the human body. Nanosystems can be used in many areas of medicine. They constitute an excellent base for use as dressing materials, as they exhibit antimicrobial properties. In addition, they can be carriers of drugs and biological macromolecules and can be used in gene therapy, tissue engineering, and construction of biosensors. For this reason, potential application areas of chitosan-carbon nanotube nanocomposites in medical sciences are presented in this publication, considering the characteristics of the system components.

AbstractSchools are institutionalized spaces of learning where children and young people are trained to become morally and ethically responsible members of society. Cultural ideas and values relating to friendship, social status and the nation, but also regarding one's own body, dress and emotional, verbal or gestural expression, are learned and performed by young people on an everyday basis. In this article, I build on ethnographic research on the ‘new’ generation of Christian and Muslim schools in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania (2008–10), and I show that particular ways of learning and performing values can be understood as a form of embodied morality that orients students and teachers in relation to their educational and socio-urban environments. I argue that schools do not represent monolithic ethical or moral frameworks or that the actors in these educational settings learn or embody those frameworks in uniform ways. Rather, the processes of ethical and moral (self-)formation are often highly fragmented due to the diverse (social, religious and economic) backgrounds of students and teachers as well as the logics of class formation in the neoliberal market, which causes a high degree of fluctuation across the (equally fragmented) educational landscape of Dar es Salaam. I therefore define ‘embodied morality’ as a partial and discontinuous practice whose specific forms and experience are inseparably entwined with the specific ideological, social and institutional environments of particular educational settings.

Aim. To analyze the scientific and technical literature and identify ways to create a new generation of mass-consumption food products enriched with vital nutrients. Discussion. The main malnutrition of the Russian population is the excess of caloric intake over an indicator of the level of energy consumption. One of the ways to solve this problem is the production of functional food products or enriched functional products. The essence of this is that only those micronutrients that are really in short supply should be used in the fortification of products. These should be products of mass consumption, and especially those that undergo refining, which results in the loss of micronutrients. The use of raw materials and ingredients only of natural (animal, vegetable, mineral) origin, allows you to create active complexes that qualitatively change the physiological properties of the product, and can affect many product characteristics and processes such as physico-chemical, structural-mechanical and organoleptic characteristics of the product, the processes of color formation, fermentation, oxidation, storage capacity. However, sometimes a strong passion for enriching the product with useful macro- and micronutrients affects the taste characteristics. Conclusion. When developing recipes and technologies for new-generation products, it is necessary that the enrichment of the product with important and necessary elements does not worsen the organoleptic characteristics. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure the safety of products without compromising consumer properties. The diet should contain all the necessary nutrients (nutrients) for a person in sufficient quantities and balanced with each other in the most favorable proportions.

The traditional food of a culture in a society is continuously inherited from the old generation to the new generation. The traditional element is an in-depth understanding of the function of each material, techniques of preparation, and the practice in our daily cooking. This understanding in the form of preparation, meal preparation, tips, use of certain equipment, and raw materials are mysteries difficult to be unravelled. The Malay cultural heritage food is an integral asset among Malaysians in general and the Malay race in particular. Malay cuisine is one of the special and unique blended of many traditions from around the region. However, when Malay culture and cuisine are introduced to other countries, they faced certain hurdles and challenges. This study investigates the issues and challenges faced by Malay cuisine in the foreign market. The points in question are, 1) Why are Malay cuisine difficult to be exported to other countries 2) Why Malay cuisine is less popular than cuisines from other countries? 3) What are the factors that make foods from a country of origin can be successfully exported? These issues and challenges will be parsed and discussed based on the existing written collection. Recommendations will be made on the mechanisms that enable the success of Malay cuisine food to be commercialized abroad, as well as future research examining the success factors of traditional food exported abroad.

Nonisocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) is a research hotspot in polyurethane applications because it does not use phosgene. Herein, a novel method of solvent- and catalyst-free synthesis of a hybrid nonisocyanate polyurethane (HNIPU) is proposed. First, four diamines were used to react with ethylene carbonate to obtain four bis(hydroxyethyloxycarbonylamino)alkane (BHA). Then, BHA reacted with dimer acid under condensation in the melt to prepare four nonisocynate polyurethane prepolymers. Further, the HNIPUs were obtained by crosslinking prepolymers and resin epoxy and cured with the program temperature rise. In addition, four amines and two resin epoxies were employed to study the effects and regularity of HNIPUs. According to the results from thermal and dynamic mechanical analyses, those HNIPUs showed a high degree of thermal stability, and the highest 5% weight loss reached about 350 °C. More importantly, the utilization of these green raw materials accords with the concept of sustainable development. Further, the synthetic method and HNIPUs don’t need isocyanates, catalysts, or solvents.
