Development of Primer as a Value Added Product from Waste PET
Abstract: Polyethylene terephthalate was depolymerized by two different chemical recycling techniques i.e. glycolysis and aminolysis. Glycolysis is carried out with Zinc hydroxide and with conventional catalyst i.e. Zinc acetate for the comparable yield of the monomer. Glycolysis is carried out with ethylene glycol whereas aminolysis is done with ethanolamine. Products obtained from both the techniques namely Bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) and Bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalamide (BHETA) have different chemical structure but have hydroxyl functionality …

Optimization of Red Pigment Yield from Monscus purpureus Solid State Fermentation (Isolation and Characterization of Monscus purpureus and Optimization of its Red Pigment Production)
Abstract: Natural pigments production is one of the important approaches recently for being natural and having therapeutic properties. Monscus purpureus was isolated from imported red yeast rice, characterized and propagated on local rice as solid state culture. Morphological characteristics which include colonies, ascosporous and conidial stage were used to identify the fungi besides its red pigment production. Red pigment was produced using 10% of seed culture of Monescus purpureus, incubated at …

Aluminum and its Alloys to Recover from Corrosive Weather
Abstract: Corrosion is defined as deterioration of material, usually metal, because of reaction with its environment and which requires presence of an anode, a cathode, an electrolyte and an electrical circuit. Aluminum and its alloys are reactive to weather of exposure, e.g. ambient, acid and alkalis. Solid to pigments are prevented from corrosion by using inhibitors. Organic inhibitors are ever praised due to non-toxic performances. Basic processes are surface adsorption to …
