Technology of vanadium slag (VS) production and extraction vanadium out of it is money- and labor-consuming process, that stipulates the actuality of study of physical, mechanical and technological properties of VS and influences the effectiveness of its processing and utilization. It was noted, that the oxidizing-siliceous addition (OSA), used as a dilutant in the process of vanadium extraction, enables to ensure basic components content in the VS accounting the Technical Specifications ТУ 14-11-187–86. However, it changes the chemical and mineral compositions and distribution of metal inclusions by slag fractions, therefore all the studied parameters were considered by variants with the OSA and without it. The averaged chemical composition of VS, its mineral phases content and metal inclusions content presented. It was shown, that existing methods of evaluation of metal inclusions content in the VS do not ensure repeatability of the results. A methodology was proposed to evaluate slagging of metal inclusions by the hydrostatic weighing method. Besides, Influence of OSA on physical and mechanical properties of vanadium slag. A dependence of metal content in slag on its apparent density determined, which will increase accuracy of calculations of capacity of transport facilities, bunkers, warehouses etc. The study of the VS strength characteristics, knowledge of which is important for correct choice of crushing and grinding equipment, was accomplished with samples obtained with additions OSA and without OSA. The results obtained showed, that the strength of the VS without OSA is significantly higher, and the indices of crushability is lower, comparing with VS with OSA utilization. The VS with OSA additions is mechanical processed easier – at crushing, grinding. Besides, in this case the metal inclusions are opened better and during extraction out of a slag they are less slaggy.

The problem of assessing steels durability, their resistance to brittle fracture in the structures used in various branches of industry, remains relevant at the development of the new equipment and control of the old equipment. Standard strength calculations do not give a complete picture of the ability of steels due to their physical and mechanical properties to resist the formation and further development of defects and cracks under the action of actual stresses. The correct choice of a structural material for technical devices operating at low temperatures, knowledge of its characteristics of resistance to brittle fracture, understanding of brittle fracture mechanism at low temperatures and research in this area are of great importance. Since 1980s, JSC IrkutskNIIkhimmash systematically conducts the research works related to impact strength characteristics. These works are carried out in connection with the need for assessing the resistance to brittle fracture of metal of the equipment for storing oil products, vessels and pipelines, drill pipes and tubing, etc. As a result of many years of research, the authors accumulated significant experimental material in the form of temperature dependences of impact strength - both for the material of various types of blanks (sheets, pipes, forgings) in the state of delivery, and for the metal of technical devices elements after their operation of various duration. The main objective of the article is to assist specialists in establishing the correct choice of steel for the new or old structures in terms of their resistance to brittle fracture without conducting special studies. Specialists can select the closest steel analogue (on chemical composition, mechanical properties, and the type of product without making cuts from the structure or blanks for additional research), and set the numerical value of the impact strength, critical temperature of brittleness and the stress intensity factor for any temperature in the range from –40 to 20° С in order to use them in further calculations.

Development of technology for the processing of mixed waste of vinyl flooring by their joint milling and plasticization. The determination of the MFI was carried out according to ISO 1133: 1997 on a capillary viscometer with a constant pressure and temperature (190 ± 0.5) ° C and a weight of 2.16 kg. The thermostability and melting temperature were determined on the Hipro RM 200C plastograph. Mechanical properties were determined on a breaking machine according to ASTM D638. Hardness - using a Shore D durometer, hydrostatic weighing density on an analytical balance RADWAG AS-X2. Equipment for milling and plasticization of a mixture of PVC / PET waste was selected. Qualitative milling of mixed waste is achieved by using a low speed rotary knife grinder with rotor speed of 300 rpm. The properties of the reinforced PVC were obtained. The strength of this film compared with the classic recipe is lower but when by using such materials in the composition it is possible to obtain a material with high physical and mechanical properties and achieve maximum non-waste production which will also have a positive effect on the economy of the enterprise. The technology for joint processing of mixed vinyl flooring waste was developed for the first time. The features of reinforcing PVC matrix with fibers of a PET was obtained at the receipt of films from mixed vinyl flooring waste. The developed technology allows to provide non-waste production of vinyl flooring at enterprises.

Timber Acacia mangium (Acacia mangium, Willd) for Furniture. The study aims to determine the mechanical and physical properties and the decorative value (color and fiber) wood of acacia mangium with using finishing materials. This type of finishing material used is ultran lasur natural dof ,ultran lasur classic teak, aqua politur clear dof, aqua politur akasia dan aqua politur cherry. After finishing the wood is stored for 3 months. Test parameters were observed, namely, physical and mechanical properties of wood, adhesion of finishing materials, color and appearance of the fiber, and timber dimensions expansion. The results showed that the mechanical physical properties of acacia wood qualified SNI. 01-0608-89 about the physical and mechanical properties of wood for furniture, air dry the moisture content from 13.78 to 14.89%, flexural strength from 509.25 to 680.50 kg/cm2, and compressive strength parallel to fiber 342.1 - 412.9 kg/cm2.

An investigation on the properties of Tenun Pahang fabric performances using alternative yarns was conducted. The studies were made in order to evaluate whether the Tenun Pahang fabric could be produced economically and at the same time maintain the fabric quality. Traditional Tenun Pahang fabric uses silk for both warp and weft. For this project, two alternative yarns were used which were bamboo and modal, which were a little lower in cost compared to silk. These yarns were woven with two variations, one with the yarns as weft only while maintaining the silk warp and the other with both warp and weft using the alternative yarns. Four (4) physical testings and three (3) mechanical testings conducted on the fabric samples. The fabric samples were evaluated including weight, thickness, thread density, crease recovery angle, stiffness and drapability. The results show that modal/silk and bamboo silk fabrics are comparable in terms of stiffness and drapability, hence they have the potential to replace 100% silk Tenun Pahang.

Abstract A basic set of experiments for the determination of mechanical properties of sands is described. This includes the determination of basic physical and mechanical properties, as conventionally applied in soil mechanics, as well as some additional experiments, which provide further information on mechanical properties of granular soils. These additional experiments allow for determination of steady state and instability lines, stress-strain relations for isotropic loading and pure shearing, and simple cyclic shearing tests. Unconventional oedometric experiments are also presented. Necessary laboratory equipment is described, which includes a triaxial apparatus equipped with local strain gauges, an oedometer capable of measuring lateral stresses and a simple cyclic shearing apparatus. The above experiments provide additional information on soil’s properties, which is useful in studying the following phenomena: pre-failure deformations of sand including cyclic loading compaction, pore-pressure generation and liquefaction, both static and caused by cyclic loadings, the effect of sand initial anisotropy and various instabilities. An important feature of the experiments described is that they make it possible to determine the initial state of sand, defined as either contractive or dilative. Experimental results for the “Gdynia” model sand are shown.
