Library and Auditorium Electrical Appliances Automation
Abstract: Wireless technologies are used in consumer applications for quite a long while. On the other hand, the operation of radio based communication frameworks in mechanization of applications was viewed as dubious for long time. Basically, the exceptionally fluctuating nature of remote transmission channels, contrasted with wired ones, was responsible for this fact. The use of wireless technology in industrial automation systems offers a number of potential benefits, from the obvious …

Weldability of Ferritic Stainless Steel
Abstract: The ferritic stainless steels are generally considered less weldable than austenitic stainless steels. In case of welding of first-generation ferritic stainless steels, rapid grain growth of ferrite takes place in both the fusion zone and heat-affected zone. These coarse grains have very low ductility and toughness. Excessive grain growth can be avoided by using lower welding heat input and or certain types of additives. They are lower in cost and …

Thermal Stability of Compatibilised Natural Rubber/ Chitosan Blends
Abstract: The thermal degradation behavior of Natural Rubber /Chitosan (NR/CS) blends compatibilised with maleic anhydride (MA) was studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The TGA shows that the MA modified blends are more stable than the pure blends. MA acts as a reactive compatibiliser in NR/CS blends. MA grafted NR chain is highly reactive towards the functional group on the chitosan moiety, and when pressing at elevated temperature interaction develops between the …
