Investigation into the morphological and mechanical properties of date palm fiber-reinforced epoxy structural composites

This study aims to examine the morphology and mechanical properties (tensile, flexural, and compressive) of epoxy composites reinforced with epoxy date palm leaves (EDPL), epoxy date palm branch (EDPB), and epoxy/hardener date palm core shell (EDPC) fibers (particle size <1 μm depend on the date palm fibers). A three-step technique was used to obtain the composites. The EDPL composites showed a maximum tensile strength of 3.45 MPa, while the EDPB composites showed maximum compressive and flexural rigidity of 9.46 and 5.55 MPa, respectively, owing to the good compatibility of fiber-matrix bonding. In this work, epoxy composites reinforced with date palm fibers (DPF) leaves, branches, and core shell were recycled using a cost-effective and easily reproducible three-step technique. EDPC fibers fabricated with 64.65% weight carbon fibers content demonstrated improved tensile strengths and stiffness properties. The three samples of palm date composites revealed mechanical properties that could be used to trial these fibers for manufacturing purposes, and to exploit their extraordinary mechanical properties shown in current results.

以CoMn2O4为催化剂氧化二甲苯的研究

探索催化剂的制备条件,包括搅拌温度、干燥温度、煅烧温度及煅烧时间对二甲苯氧化效果的影响,结果表明煅烧温度对氧化效果的影响最为明显。在其它制备条件（搅拌温度为60 ℃、干燥温度为60 ℃和煅烧时间为3 h）不变的前提下,通过改变煅烧温度（温度分别350、450和550 ℃）,比较3种二甲苯氧化难易以及不同煅烧温度下氧化同一构型二甲苯的差异。整体而言,煅烧温度为350 ℃的催化剂性能最佳。邻、间和对3种二甲苯完全氧化的温度相差约15 ℃,其中,邻二甲苯最难氧化,完全氧化需260 ℃,间二甲苯次之,对二甲苯最易氧化。与此同时,利用XRD、XPS、N₂吸附-脱附和H₂-TPR等表征手段来分析煅烧温度造成3种不同构型二甲苯氧化程度差异性的原因。     

Biowaste-derived hydroxyapatite reinforced with polyvinyl pyrrolidone/aloevera composite for biomedical applications

The present investigation focuses on the synthesis of crabshell-derived hydroxyapatite (CS-HAP)/ water-soluble synthetic polymer—polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP)/aloevera(AV)—a natural biopolymer, as a composite for enhanced mechanical, antibacterial and biocompatible properties. The reinforcement of polymer has a significant function in increasing the mechanical property of the composite, whereas the incorporation of AV improves the antibacterial and biocompatibility. Phase composition, morphology, mechanical property, and hydrophilicity of CS-HAP/PVP/AV biocomposite with different concentrations of PVP and AV were examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), Vickers microhardness tests, contact angle, respectively. Furthermore, the antibacterial efficiency of the composite is assessed using Escherichia coli (E coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S aureus). The biocompatibility of HOS MG 63 cells on the CS-HAP/PVP/AV composite is evaluated by MTT assay test. The obtained results evidence that the as-synthesized composite have appropriate mechanical, antibacterial and biocompatible properties. Overall, the combination of mechanical property of PVP, antibacterial and biocompatible property of AV in CS-HAP/PVP/AV, makes the composite a potential therapeutic material for various biomedical applications.     

镁合金及其复合材料超塑性的研究现状

以等通道角挤压和粉末冶金等方法为例，讨论了镁合金晶粒细化的处理工艺。在室温下晶粒细化可使镁合金同时具有较高的强度和韧性，而在较高的应变速率或较低的温度下，晶粒细化的镁合金具有一定的超塑性，这说明晶粒细化对改善镁合金的力学性能十分重要。镁合金超塑性变形的主要机制仍然是晶界滑移，但晶界滑移总会在晶界三叉区或材料增强相与基体的相界处产生应力集中，使晶界滑移受到阻碍，这就需要有另外的协调机制来协调晶界进一步滑移。镁合金在超塑性变形过程中更容易发生动态再结晶使晶粒细化，使晶界滑移能够继续进行。镁基复合材料中增强体颗粒很细小且弥散分布，稳定了镁合金在高温下的组织，颗粒与晶粒界面可以充当原子扩散通道，很好地协调了晶界滑移。
