This paper reports on the strength and hydration products of slag cement prepared by activating ground granulated blast-furnace slag with lime and plaster of Paris (PoP). The compressive strengths of slag-lime-PoP mixes at specified curing periods were determined by varying the lime content from 5% to 40% and PoP from 1% to 10% of the dry weight of slag. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry tests were performed to examine the hydration products, the rate of hydration and the microstructure. A correlation was established between the developed strength, raw material compositions and the microstructure. Optimisation of raw material compositions in the mix was determined by adopting the generalised reduced gradient algorithm and it was found that the optimum composition of raw material changed marginally with the curing period of mortar specimens.

“…Furan resins have found varieties of applications, such as bonding material for corrosion-resistant fiber and glass-reinforced plastic, which have excellent resistance to heat distortion and flame spread [3,4], membrane for water desalination [5], binder in core molding and friction materials [6], ion exchange [7], and antimicrobial resins [8]. Moschiar et al [9] prepared composites of furan resin cured with acid catalyst Quinacetophenone-furfural-substituted benzoic acids have been synthesized by Burma et al [10].…”

The terpolymer resins have been prepared by polycondensation of vanillin (V) and chloro=bromo-substituted acetophenone (CA=BA) with furfural (FU) in the presence of 1 M HCl in 1:1:2 molar proportions. The characterization and structural elucidation of terpolymers were confirmed by FT-IR, pyrolysis GC-MS, and non-aqueous conductometric titration. Activation energy during curing process was determined by the Kissinger method, whereas thermal decomposition was determined by the OzawaFlynn-Wall method. Both terpolymer resins have shown excellent antimicrobial activity as compared to the standard ciprofloxacin and amphotericin-B drugs.

“…Adhesives and bondings are the largest market for furfural resins. Furan resins have found varieties of applications, such as serving as a binder in core molding and friction materials [1], a non-reactive diluent for epoxy resins [2], a membrane for water desalination [3], bonding material for corrosion-resistant fiber and glass-reinforced plastic, which has excellent resistance to heat distortion and flame spread [4][5][6]. Adroja et al [7] prepared composites of epoxy resin of 1,1 0 -bis(3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane (EMC) with glass and jute having good mechanical strength.…”

A copolymer resin, p-chloroacetophenone oxime-furfuraldehyde (CAOFU), and a terpolymer resin, p-chloroacetophenone oxime-formaldehyde-benzoic acid (CAOFUBA), were synthesized in the presence of hydrochloric acid as catalyst. The structures of copolymer and terpolymer were established by FT-IR and 1 H NMR techniques. Molecular weight and polydispersity index were determined by gel permeation chromatography. The thermal stability was evaluated by thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). Softening temperatures (T s ) of these polymers were obtained from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). All the synthesized polymers have shown reasonably good antimicrobial activities.
