To synthesize electroconductive composites graphite nanoparticles were used as filler material in many insulating polymers‚ for example epoxy‚ polystyrene‚ poly(methyl methacrylate)‚ thermoplastic polyurethane and many others [8]. Such composites attracted significant attention

ABSTRACT The study aims to produce biodegradable plastic using cassava starch as its main component. Cassava starch was mixed with water‚ epoxydized soya bean oil (ESBO)‚ glycerol‚ and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The mixture was then compressed and tested. Three preparations were made from the mixture. The first preparation contained 50 grams starch‚ 50 grams water‚ 50 grams PVA‚ 2.5 grams ESBO‚ and 2.5 grams glycerol. The second preparation contained 65 grams starch‚ 65 grams water‚ 50 grams PVA‚ 2

2. Experimental 2.1. Experimental procedure for the synthesis of bone-like CS-PEG-HA-ZrO2 nanocomposites (BNC I-III). At first‚ ZrO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by using the previously reported method [16]. Briefly‚ aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (purchased from HiMedia Private Ltd.) (40 ml 0.05M) was slowly added in zirconium oxychloride octahydrate (purchased from Merck India Ltd.) solution (100 ml 0.01M) prepared in methanol-water (1:1) at 5 oC temperature. The mixture was stirred

respectively. Polymers are macro molecules formed by linking smaller molecules repeatedly‚ called monomers. Examples: Polythene is formed by linking a large number of ethene (or ethylene) molecules together as shown below. Similarly polystyrene is formed by linking styrene molecules together. The number of repeating units (n) in the chain‚ so formed is called as the degree of polymerization. Polymers with high degree of polymerization are called high polymers and these have

Petroleum products are used widely in our everyday lives. They are used to power automobiles produce containers and to keep us warm. Petroleum‚ or crude oil is liquid composed of various organic chemicals. It is found in large quantities below the surface of Earth and is used as a fuel and as a raw material in the chemical industry. The word petroleum comes from the two Latin words "petro" and "leum" "petro" meaning rock and "leum" meaning oil. The chemical composition of all petroleum is principally

Cloning is asexual reproduction. Cuttings are taken from a mother plant in vegatative growth‚ and rooted in hydroponic medium to be grown as a separate plant. The offspring will be plants that are identical to the parent plant. Cloning preserves the character of your favorite plant. Cloning can make an ocean of green out of a single plant‚ so it is a powerful tool for growing large crops‚ and will fill a closet quickly with your favorite genetics. When you find the plant you want to be your "buddy"

Insulation An insulator is something that slows down the rate of heat transfer. The amount of thermal energy escaping from a house can be reduced by using domestic insulation systems that work by reducing the effects of thermal conduction‚ convection and radiation. Heat insulation can take different forms depending on the type of heat transfer involved. The question arises as to which solid material is good for heat insulation. Non- metals are good heat insulators. Examples of non- metals used as
