STUDIES ON MECHANICAL, THERMAL AND PERMEATION PROPERTIES OF HDPE (BLOW GRADE) WITH MICROSILICA CLAY
Abstract: HDPE is widely used in container applications. The mechanical properties and barrier properties can be further improved by the addition of reinforcements like nanoclays. But, however the cost of nanoclays are higher about Rs.5000 – 6000/kg whereas micro silica cost is economical about Rs.450-1000/kg. Hence we used micro silica of 270nm particle size in this project with HDPE blow grade. HDPE (High density polyethylene) was melt blended with micro silica …

A Comprehensive Review on Coumarin Derivatives
Abstract: Coumarins are naturally occurring compounds found in plants, fungi, and microorganisms with diverse bioactivities. They have antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antiviral, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties. Extracting coumarins, using methods like maceration and microwave- assisted extraction, is crucial for their applications. However, safety and toxicology are important, especially in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food additives. Consuming moderate amounts of coumarin-rich foods is generally safe, but excessive intake raises concerns about hepatotoxicity and …
