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 …

Performance Analysis of Schmitt Trigger Circuit for Noise-Free Chips
Abstract: At lower nodes of complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, noise within a chip increase due to a drastic increment in interconnects within a given area. To improve the noise immunity of a chip, a Schmitt trigger circuit is used as a buffer instead of a simple CMOS inverter at various intervals along the metal interconnect. The use of a Schmitt trigger circuit not only makes the chip noise immune but …
