6000 inhibitors for aluminum and its alloys
Abstract: 6XXX series of aluminum alloys suffer from severe corrosion in acidic saline medium. These alloys are used for architectural, automobiles, aviation, household appliances, containers and electronic devices. Organic-inorganic sol-gel hybrid coatings are synthesized on these alloys. Rear earth inhibitors consider lanthanum inhibitors to be better than cerium inhibitors. These contexts discuss epoxy-silica-zirconia by sol-gel coatings, paddy residue, colchicines, rare earth coatings and ionic liquid for composites

Response Spectrum Analysis of RC Buildings Constructed on Plain and Sloping Ground with Different Configuration of Shear Walls
Abstract: Abstract Buildings constructed on slopes are different from those in plains. They may be irregular and unsymmetrical in horizontal and vertical planes, and torsionally coupled. Hence, they are susceptible to severe damage when affected by earthquake ground motion. We can’t avoid the future earthquakes but the preparedness and safe building construction practices for earthquakes can certainly reduces the extent of damage and loss of both property and life. Shear wall …
