The elimination of metal waste generated during the initial manufacturing processes of industrial plants and workshop machines still a big problem. The current investigation dealt with adding the metal wastes produced by machinery processing such as iron filings powder, iron turning lathe, and aluminum turning lathe to improve the structural performance of oneway ribbed slab (RS) panels. Two types of concrete were considered in this work; Ferro cement (FER) and self-compacting concrete (SCC). The reinforced concrete panels with iron filings powder and iron turning lathe showed an increase in the ultimate load and a decrease in the central deflection, while the panels with aluminum turning lathe revealed an opposite behavior. The significant effect of using metal wastes is the superior resistance to crack propagation by increase the bond between fibers and cement mortar across the cracks. Adding the metal wastes with fine particles improves the concrete strength providing the workability must be controlled. Using the lathe as an iron fiber with a specific shape factor has a side effect due to fiber balling in the concrete mix. Also, high percentages of filings iron powder cause agglomerate the powder particles due to magnetic attraction forces.
Organogel as a system was to estimate its capacity to delay and slow the drug release in the duodenum. The gelators, 12HSA (12-hydroxystearic acid), span 60. span 40 were used; the castor oil (CO) and anise oil (AO) also represented the liquid phase. To achieve the goal of this work was by using diclofenac sodium (DS). Organogels specifications were by estimating thermal attitude using tabletop rheology and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The organogel strength study was by applying oscillatory rheology tests the amplitude sweep and the frequency sweep. Realizing the morphology of the organogel was done utilizing an optical microscope. CO and AO binding capacity was also manifested. The transition temperatures for all organogels were reversible. Imaging demonstrated spherulites aggregates for organogels of 12HSA and span 40 in CO and AO while span 60 organogels in both oils existed as fibers aggregates. Furthermore, organogels exhibited viscoelastic characteristics as 20 wt% 12HSA in both oils were frequency-independent. The results revealed that the HPMC capsule containing the organogel resisted the dissolution in the acidic media for two hours. Moreover, organogels slowed the release of DS for 24 hours in an alkaline medium. Finally, all the selected organogel in CO exhibited a high oil binding capacity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
