Effect of Flame Retardants on the Flammability and Mechanical Properties of Recycled Cellulose FiberThermoplastic Composites
Abstract: In this work, recycled cellulose fiber and two different types of flame retardants, including magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) with smaller particle size and zinc borate with antimony trioxide (ZB-AT), were heavily combined with thermoplastic polymer to create a fire retardant composite. Composites were made using a melt-blending technique and injection molding, which have a number of benefits like being inexpensive, being able to get rid of industrial materials, and having superior …

Review on: Heterogeneous Solid Base Catalyst Production from Waste Animal Bone as Transesterification of Jatropha Oil
Abstract: Biodiesel is produce mainly by transesterification, reacting vegetable oils or animal fats with monohydric alcohol in presence of a catalyst. The transesterification reaction is affected by various parameters. One of this parameter is catalyst type. Generally, catalysts used in transesterification reaction can be divided into three categories: homogenous, heterogeneous and enzymes. Heterogeneous catalysts offer numerous advantages over homogeneous catalysts as it can easily be separated from reaction mixture and can …

Optimizing Milling Parameters in Face Milling Operation
Abstract: In statistics, response surface methodology (RSM) establish a relationship between several self or system explanatory variables and one or more response variables. Since many variables are involved to control the process, the requirement of some mathematical models to represent the process is found to be necessary. In order to extract the result by this statistical analysis, the experimental results will have to be processed using the analysis of variance (ANOVA). …
