AEROGELS – A VALUE ADDITION TO HARVEST SOLAR ENERGY
Abstract: Aerogels are a class of synthetic porous ultralight material that was created in 1930 and derived from a gel, in which the liquid component has been replaced with a gas without collapsing the gel structure by freeze-drying. It is made of silica, but carbon, iron oxide, gold, copper, polymer etc. can also be used. During freeze drying the liquid in the gel is slowly dried off without collapsing the solid …

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 …
