  Market Assessment of Polymer Matrix Composites

  By R.V.S. Nagarajan

  Abstract: Polymeric composition compound with a plasticizer or very low proportion of pigment or processing aids are nonordinary consider as a composition the goal is to improve strength stiffness or toughness or dimensional stability by embedding particles in matrix or binding phase. Polymer-matrix composites are valued in the aerospace industry for their stiffness, lightness, and heat resistance. They are fabricated materials in which carbon or hydrocarbon fibres (and sometimes metallic strands, …

  Significance of RDX – A Highly Explosive Energetic Material

  By R.V.S. Nagarajan

  Abstract: Plastic demolition explosives containing RDX and PETN as major energetic components. Torpex: 42% RDX, 40% TNT, and 18% powdered aluminium. The mixture was designed during World War II and used mainly in underwater ordnance. It is made from other chemicals known as hexamine, ammonium nitrate, nitric acid, and acetic acid. A small amount of HMX is also formed in making cyclotrimethylene-trinitramine (RDX), another explosive similar in structure to HMX. Composition …

  A Potential Application of Nanofiltration Technology in Chemical Industry

  By R.V.S. Nagarajan

  Abstract: The upsurge in energy costs and the demands for products with larger nutritional value and of processing ways less toxic to the environment are eye-catching factors for transferring membrane processing to food industries. Nanofiltration (NF) technology is still progressing, finding more and more uses in food processing and seems as a vital alternative to conventional methods. The purpose of this review is to present the recent development and future potential …

  AN OUTLINE OF KINETICS VERSUS THERMODYNAMICS CHEMISTRY

  By R.V.S. Nagarajan

  Abstract: Nearly all chemical reactions has a kinetic and a thermodynamic feature. The terms ‘kinetic’ and ‘thermodynamic’ though inter-related are two diverse aspects of a chemical reaction. This paper represents an outline of the underlying relationships between the two through application to chemical reactions and an example from natural processes. A required condition for thermodynamic control is reversibility or a mechanism allowing the equilibration between products. In this manner, the thermodynamically …
