Anhydrite binder calcined from phosphogypsum Ceramics – Silikáty 54 (2) 152-159 (2010) 155 was 9.1-9.2. The specific surface area was 1900 m2/kg. The cristabolite, the lisetite, the vaterite, the anorthite, the magnesite, the illite were identified in the X-ray diffraction pattern (Figure 2a). That was confirmed by the thermal analysis as well.

The highly stable chemical bonds of its molecular structure impart a remarkable degree of molecular stability toward both thermal degradation and chemical reactivity. The molecular structure also readily packs into a very thermally stable crystalline lattice, hence PPS is a semi-crystalline polymer with a high crystalline melting point of about ...

We treated human lung epithelial cells, type BEAS-2B, with 10–80 μg/cm 2 of dust from soils and road surfaces in the western United States that contained particulate matter (PM) < 2.5 μm aerodynamic diameter. Cell viability and cytokine secretion responses were measured at 24 hr.

Formaldehyde is a colorless poisonous gas synthesized by the oxidation of methanol and used as an antiseptic, disinfectant, histologic fixative, and general-purpose chemical reagent for laboratory applications. Formaldehyde is readily soluble in water and is commonly distributed as a 37% solution in water; formalin, a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water, is used as a disinfectant and to ...

Clay Piedmont clays tend to fall in Group 2B, as do Coastal Plain clays collected along the Pee Dee and Cape Fear Riv-ers. In contrast, clays collected elsewhere in the Coastal Plain and in the Sandhills belong to Group 3. With the exceptions of a single Chemical Group 4 clay in the Sandhills and an anomalous Group 3 clay found on the

The high leaded tin bronzes contain the most widely used bearing bronze alloy C932 (also known as SAE 660). Widely available and somewhat less expensive than other bearings alloys - it is known for its unsurpassed wear performance against steel journals.

Using a ball-on-ball impact tester, specimens in the form of 75-mm diameter balls were impacted until they broke or spalled severely, which required 7,000 to 500,000 impacts.

ASTM's steel standards are instrumental in classifying, evaluating, and specifying the material, chemical, mechanical, and metallurgical properties of the different types of steels, which are primarily used in the production of mechanical components, industrial parts, and construction elements, as well as other accessories related to them.

The chemical composition of these raw materials was analyzed by X-ray fluorescence (XRF). The ceramic compositions were prepared by mixing 50 % clay (25 % kaolin and 25 % ball clay), 25 % quartz and 25 % po-tassium feldspar. Both quartz and feldspar were replaced by basalt fiber in different amounts as shown in Table 1.

The current physical goods economy produces materials by extracting finite valuable resources without taking their end of the life and environmental impact into account. Mycelium-based materials offer an alternative fabrication paradigm, based on the growth of materials rather than on extraction. Agricultural residue fibres are inoculated with fungal mycelium, which form an interwoven three ...

Steel is an alloy, a combination metal made of iron and carbon. The carbon content of steel reaches a maximum of 1.5 percent. Because of its hardness and strength, steel is used in the construction of buildings, bridges, automobiles, and a host of other manufacturing and engineering applications.

This invention relates to steatite-type ceramic bodies, the mixtures comprising them and the methods of preparing them. One of the objects of this invention is to provide a new form of fired ceramic body having improved mechanical and electrical characteristics and particularly having Q values inexcess of 2000.

Donald L. Sparks, in Environmental Soil Chemistry (Second Edition), 2003. Saline Soils. Saline soils have traditionally been classified as those in which the EC e of the saturation extract is >4 dS m −1 and ESP <15%. Some scientists have recommended that the EC e limit for saline soils be lowered to 2 dS m −1 as many crops, particularly fruits and ornamentals, can be harmed by salinity in ...

The first step in pencil manufacture involves making the graphite core. One method of doing this is extrusion, in which the graphite mixture is forced through a die opening of the proper size. In addition to the conventional wood pencil, a number of other pencils are widely used. In the early 1880s, the search for a pencil that didn't ...

A detailed, informative and comprehensive review of clay minerals as successful adsorbent has been carried out. The chemical composition of various clay minerals is presented in this paper. An outline of classification of various clay minerals is successfully emphasized. Chemical, thermal, etc. modification were described and stated very carefully.

Nanocomposites of aluminosilicate minerals, kaolins (kaolinite and halloysite) with natural different morphologies assembling with palladium (Pd) nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized ...

Silicates are materials generally having composition of silicon and oxygen (figure 2a). Four large oxygen (o) atoms surround each smaller silicon (Si) atom as shown in figure 2b. The main types of silicate ceramics are based either on alumosilicates or on magnesium silicates. Out of these two, the former include clay-based ceramics such as

Ceramic composition and properties, atomic and molecular nature of ceramic materials and their resulting characteristics and performance in industrial applications.. Industrial ceramics are commonly understood to be all industrially used materials that are inorganic, nonmetallic solids. Usually they are metal oxides (that is, compounds of metallic elements and oxygen), but many ceramics ...

disintegration of clay minerals (kaolinite and "Otay" montmorillonite) and mica (ripidolite), carried out by high-energy ball milling (HEBM), on their surface physico-chemical characteristics, i.e., the specific surface area (SSA), the cation exchange capacity (CEC), and the electrokinetic properties. The mechanical disintegration of

Wollastonite is a calcium inosilicate mineral (Ca Si O 3) that may contain small amounts of iron, magnesium, and manganese substituting for calcium. It is usually white. It forms when impure limestone or dolomite is subjected to high temperature and pressure, which sometimes occurs in the presence of silica-bearing fluids as in skarns or in contact with metamorphic rocks.
