A Brief Overview of the Removal of Fluoride and Chromium Using Polymer Adsorbents
Abstract: Water tainted with heavy metals are the serious worldwide issues face today because of economic and industrial growth. Even at trace amounts, hexavalent chromium is a significant metal ion pollutant that is highly harmful to humans, animals, plants, and microbes. There are several methods for purifying water, but adsorption is one of the most straightforward, practical, and cost-effective approaches. Chromium is one such significant metal that may be released by …

Effect of Annealing Temperature on the Structural, Morphological and Electrochemical Properties of Ruthenium Oxide Electrodes
Abstract: Transition metal oxide thin films are in great demand for a variety of technical applications, Ruthenium oxide is one of them having distinct structural, optical, chemical, and electrical properties. The structural and morphological characterization of Ruthenium oxide thin film electrodes created using the sol-gel spin coating process is covered in this work. For annealing, temperatures between 200°C and 900°C were employed. To examine electrochemistry, cyclic voltage measurement and chronopotentiometry were …

Effect of Annealling on Optical Band Gap of Fe2O3 Thin Films on Amorphos Transparent Glass Substrate by Spray Pyrolysis Method
Abstract: The Fe 2 O 3 thin film has widely used photo-electrochemical cells. In this paper, the optical properties like band gap of thin films is depend on annealed temperature at 100 o C and 200 o C was discussed. The optical property of Fe 2 O 3 are studied by UV- Vis spectroscopy .The optical band gap decreased after increasing annealing temperature. The refractive index of Fe 2 O 3 …

Influences of Surface Modification of Vetiver Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene Composites
Abstract: Plant-drive vetiver fiber (VF), a significant lignocellulosic fiber, can be included in polymers like polypropylene (PP) in dissimilar ways for attaining preferred features and structure. But its high levels of moisture absorption, poor wettability and inadequate adherence between the fiber and polymer matrix result in debonding with age. To develop the overhead attributes,adequate surface modifications are essential. In our current work, the VF surface was modified by mercerized treatment (MVF), …

Development of PU/Graphene Anticorrosion/antifriction coatings
Abstract: Corrosion inhibition and reduction of frictional wear is a necessary requirement in launch vehicles. Organic coating proves to be the cheapest and most advantageous owing to its high mechanical resistance and high adhesion, better chemical stability, low permeability for corrosive components etc. Among the organic coatings reported, Polyurethane is found to be the most suitable candidate it being relatively durable, softer and more elastic than other organic coatings. However, graphene …
