1. DEVELOPMENTAND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOCOMPOSITES FROM POLYLACTIC ACID AND GROUNDNUT SHELL ASH NANOPARTICLES
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Nanocomposite is a class of composites in which the dimensions of the reinforcing particles are in the order of 1-100 nanometers. Because of this nanometer size characteristic, nanocomposites possess superior properties to the conventional composite...
2. INTERFACIAL BOND STRENGTH BEHAVIOUR OF STEEL FIBRE REINFORCED CONCRETE AND PLAIN CONCRETE SUBSTRATE
ABSTRACT
The quality of the bonded concrete overlay depends on the bonding at the layer’s interface, which is affected by parameters such as fibre inclusion and content in new concrete, moisture condition and surface roughness of old concrete surface. This research presents an exp...
3. MODIFICATION OF STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES FOR ADVANCED FUNCTIONALITIES
SUMMARY
In industry, business, and homes worldwide, metal alloys called stainless steels are used extensively. Stainless steel is a generic term for a large family of iron-based alloys containing a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by weight. The primary alloying element, chromium, form...
