Fabrication of a Novel and Efficient Radiation Grafted Functionalized Polymer Adsorbent and Investigation of its Applicability in the Adsorptive Removal of Cr (VI) Ion from Aqueous Solution
Abstract: The grafting of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto non-woven polyethylene (PE) fabric was accomplished using a radiation-initiated grafting technique. The grafted textiles were allowed to react using triethylamine to create functioning amine groups. Upon bond formation yield, the impact of grafting intensity has been examined. Utilizing the appropriate technologies, such as FTIR, TGA, and SEM, the adsorbents were rigorously examined. There was evidence of GMA grafting and diamines according to FTIR, …

Study of PLA and its Synthesis Kinetics
Abstract: In this project we studied about Polylactic Acid and its production kinetics. The most often found optically active hydroxycarboxylic acid is lactic acid (LA, also known as 2-hydroxypropionic acid). In the form of L-and D-Lactic Acid, this chiral molecule may be found. The building blocks of polylactide are carboxylic acid monomers produced by fermentation of sugars from renewable sources, such as sugar cane, beet root, or corn starch. These sugars …

Review of Composites formed of Thermoplastic as Organic Fibers
Abstract: Composites made of structural monomers gave rise to thermoplastic polymers (TMCs). Due to their usage of a thermoplastic matrix, these materials really aren't chemically reactive. TMCs may be remoulded without degrading when heated and become softer. They harden into the final shape when they cool. Thermoplastic materials bonded with plant fibers may one day be used to create impact- absorbing structure for renewable power. Its impact features of organic fiber-reinforced …

Comparative Experimental Measurement on the Fundamental Properties of Chemically Treated Natural Fibers
Abstract: Plant-derived natural fiber as a reinforcing component can play a prevalent role in the field of fiber reinforced polymer composite due to their obtainability, environmentally friendly, renewability, low- density, and low cost. Golden fiber (jute fiber)/coconut fiber can be a potential candidate to replace the synthetic fiber reinforced polymer composite. The influences of chemical treatments such as mercerization, sodium lauryl sulfate and a combination of mercerization and sodium lauryl sulfate …

Study of Heavy Metal ion adsorption from Synthetic Wastewater with the help of biomass and analysis of Mathematical Model
Abstract: The biofilm matrix is a mixture of secreted polymers, metabolites and nutrients ingested, lysis solution products, and even particle debris. This matrix, which is polyanionic by nature, is essential for the activated carbon of metal cations. In this study, the heavy metal adsorption mechanism in biofilms is modelled in one spatial dimension. The numerical method is a free-boundary value issue for nonlinear parabolic and quadratic partial differential equations. Parabolic equations …
