Corrosion Measurement and Hardness Test of Magnesium-Tri Calcium Phosphate Composite Fabricated by Stir Casting
Abstract: Magnesium MMC is preferred in applications requiring high-quality materials and has replaced monolithic materials. Bio-implants traditionally used are titanium, steel, and nickel-titanium alloys, however, their removal necessitates surgery, which is costly and painful. While biodegradable 3D-printed implants are effective and eliminate the need for a second surgery, they remain expensive. After several studies to solve this issue, the development of biodegradable implants is considered. Magnesium possesses good biodegradable properties. An …

Bio Materials and Nanotechnology: Green Tea (Waste)– Aluminium Nanoparticles (Gt-Al Nps) For Methylene Blue Adsorption
Abstract: This study examines the adsorption of Methylene Blue (MB) dye from aqueous solutions using Aluminium Nanoparticles synthesized with green tea powder as a biological reducing agent. Methylene Blue, an aromatic phenothiazine dye, is widely applied in medical diagnostics and various industrial processes, but its uncontrolled release into water bodies leads to environmental pollution due to its intense colour, stability, and potential toxicity. Therefore, identifying an efficient and eco-friendly adsorbent for …
