Abstract:Pure TiO2 water sol, pure ZnO water sol and three compound TiO2/ZnO water sols are prepared under low temperature. Then the padding and baking process is used to put the functional sol liquid on the fabric. SEM is use to analyzed the change of surface feature and the result show that all of the water sol except pure ZnO water sol liquid formed a thin film on the fiber The stability of pure ZnO water sol is the best one and the pure TiO2 water sol is the worst one at temperature of 15°C. The compound water sols stabilities are between these two water sols and with the more amount of ZnO, the stability last longer. Both mole of TiO2 and ZnO with the rate of 5 to 5 and 7 to 3 display the best antistatic behavior, but the washing fastnesses are not good. After treatment, the moisture regain displays most dramatically changes; the next one is whiteness of fabric, but the other physical and mechanical properties have a little change.

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 Thermo-mechanical treatment is a technique for wood modification in which samples are densified by means of heat and mechanical compression, applied perpendicularly to fibers, which under different combinations of time, temperature, and pressure increases wood density and thus improve some of its properties. This study aimed to treat thermo-mechanically parica plywood and observe the effects on its physical and mechanical properties. Specimens were submitted to two treatments, 120 and 150 ºC, remaining under pressure for seven minutes and, subsequently, under zero pressure for 15 minutes. Results showed a significant increase in specific mass from 0.48 g cm-3 to an average of 0.56 g cm-3, and a compression ratio of about 31.7% on average. Physical properties also varied significantly and results showed that treated samples swelled and absorbed more water than those untreated, leading to a greater thickness non-return rate. This indicates the proposed thermal treatments did not release the internal compressive stress generated during panel pressing, not improving its dimensional stability as a result. On the other hand, mechanical properties were positively affected, leading to an increase of 27.5% and 51.8% in modulus of rupture after treatments at 120 and 150 ºC, respectively. Modulus of elasticity and glue-line shear strength did not vary statistically and Janka hardness was 29.7% higher after treatment at 150 ºC.

The construction and method of calculating the stability of a crawler excavator equipped with a new working body (cone roller) are considered. The calculation is made on two working positions (longitudinal and transverse) of the excavator, provided that the excavator must apply the maximum force on the working body at an angle of 90°. The force applied by the excavator boom to the cone roller during the introduction depends on the physical and mechanical properties of the compacted soil. The calculation method differs in that during the compaction of the roadbed, the cone sinks into the ground, and the excavator tends to roll in the direction of the rear track support roller, in contrast to the traditional danger of tipping over the front support roller when working with a bucket.

The present paper outlines the results of full-scale tests of climatic stability and the study of resistance to the action of hydrocarbon media of rubbers based on BNKS-18-18 (butadiene-nitrile rubber) and Hydrin T6000 epichlorohydrin rubber containing one of 6PPDstabilizerwith an aromatic amine moiety widely used in synthetic rubbers. Samples are exposed in an open ground under natural conditions of exposure to climatic external factors of Yakutsk in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), as well as in the oil environment of Talakanskoye field and I-50A hydraulic fluid in an unheated room. Such indexes of the samples as conditional tensile strength, elongation at rupture, hardness and degree of swelling are measured to determine the resistance of rubbers to aging after the first, third, and sixth months of exposing. The results of the study reveal the contribution of 6PPD stabilizer in maintaining the stability of the physical and mechanical properties of BNKS-18: rubber containing 6PPD has less property changes both in the open air and in hydrocarbon media compared to rubber without a stabilizer. It should be noted that the oil environment is the most aggressive environment, the swelling of rubbers in oil leads to a significant reduction in strength due to a decrease in intermolecular interaction.6PPD stabilizer occurred less effective for the rubber based on Hydrin T6000: changes in properties of the samples containing the stabilizer are larger than those of the samples without the stabilizer. However, unlike BNKS-18-18-based rubber, the swelling of rubber based on Hydrin T6000 led to the greatest stability of the physical and mechanical properties in the oil environment compared to the open air and hydraulic fluids.

The effect of Al2O3 to the properties of whiteware porcelain such as water absorption, bulk density, flexural strength and crystalline phases were studied systematically. The result shows that the addition of alumina at maximum 5 wt.% in porcelain bodies increased the flexural strength of the fired bodies which can reach 55.5 MPa, 30% higher than 0.0% alumina content. However, slight decrease in the other physical and mechanical properties was observed with Al2O3 addition higher than 5 wt.%, which is believed to be due to increased corundum phase compared to mullite phase in porcelain body.

Optimization gap size and integration of TiO2nanoparticles thin film produce a sensitive sensor device. Sol-gel spin coated TiO2nanoparticles thin film is coated on a conventional fabricated IDEs with gap sizes of 7 μm, 10 μm, 14 μm and 17 μm which is then validated through electrical characterization. I-V characteristics of without and with TiO2thin film of various gap sizes are subjected to pH test are then plotted to describe the resistance of the devices and correlate with the sensitivity measurement. Sensing devices show that devices with larger spacing and greater pH values have higher current. On the other hand, integration of TiO2thin film reduced the resistance of devices. Among the four gap sizes, 7 μm gap sized device is the most sensitive one due to the tremendous difference after small amount of pH dropped on surface, thus lowering the detection limit.

Red mud is the tailings generated from the production process of aluminum industry and is mainly stacked in open-air at present, so how to ensure the stability of red mud stockpile is very important. Regarding mud stockpile of Guizhou Aluminum Factory as the research object, this paper studies the physical and mechanical properties of Bayer red mud from wetting process, Bayer red mud from drying process, and sintering red mud through laboratory test and finally analyzes its stability under extreme rainfall condition in this region by the Geo-Studio software. The research results show that the red muds in different processes have big difference in physical and mechanical properties. The strength of sintering red mud is about 4.2 times of that of Bayer red mud from wetting process on average, and the strength of Bayer red mud from drying process is about 1.5 times of that of Bayer red mud from wetting process on average. So, the sintering red mud can be used as the subdam of red mud stockpile, to reduce the risk of collapse and dam break. The stability coefficients of the mixed stocking method under three rainfall conditions are 2.611, 2.597, and 2.631, respectively, all of which are above 1.0. It reveals that the dilatation scheme of using the sintering red mud with good engineering properties to stockpile the Bayer red mud is feasible. It can not only guarantee the safety and stability of red mud stockpiles, but also reduce the risk of red mud dam break and the capital investment of red mud yard.

Ashes generated in industrial processes are usually discarded and contribute to environmental pollution. Large scale incorporation into clayey ceramic products for civil construction, such as bricks and tiles, could be a permanent solution. Based on this rationale, this works has as its objective to characterize an ash waste from the incineration of elephant grass and to evaluate its incorporation into a clay to produce red ceramic. The waste was submitted to mineralogical and chemical characterization. Compositions were prepared with incorporation of the waste in amounts of up to 20 wt.% into the clay. Specimens were prepared by extrusion and fired in a laboratory furnace at 850°C. The physical and mechanical properties evaluated were: linear shrinkage, water absorption and flexural strength. The results showed that the waste is mainly composed of quartz and calcium compounds that sensibly reduce the linear shrinkage and does not change the other properties of the ceramic.
