Development and Evaluation of a Cost-Effective UV-Protective Cream Containing Para-Aminobenzoic Acid and Aloe Vera for Indian Climatic Conditions.
Abstract: The increasing incidence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation-induced skin disorders has heightened the demand for effective, affordable photoprotective agents, especially in countries with high sun exposure such as India. This study aimed to develop a cost-effective and efficient UV-B protective cream formulation suitable for populations in Indian latitudes. Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) was selected as the primary sunscreening agent due to its high UV-B absorption efficiency, low toxicity, and affordability compared with …

Experimental Investigation of Hybrid Natural Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Composites Using Banana and Sugar Palm Fibers
Abstract: This paper is a research study that examines the mechanical and morphological properties of hybrid natural fiber reinforced epoxy composites manufactured from banana fibers (BF) and sugar palm fibers (SPF). Because the use of sustainable, lightweight, and cost effective materials in engineering continues to grow, many engineers are looking at the possibility of utilizing natural fiber reinforced polymer composites as alternatives to traditional man-made fiber composites. Hybrid composite laminate samples …
