The synthesis of a new tridentate Schiff-base ligand and its metal complexes are reported. The reaction of ((2R)-4-methyl-2-((S)-(phenylamino)(p-tolyl) methyl) cyclohexan-1-one) with semicarbazide in a 1: 1 mole ratio resulted in the formation of the title ligand ((E)-2-((2S)-4-methyl-2-((R)(phenylamino)(ptolyl) methyl) cyclohexylidene) hydrazine-1-carboxamide)((HL). The reaction of the ligand with Co (II) and Ni (II), Cu (II), Zn (II) and Cd (II) ions in a 1: 1 (L: M) mole ratio gave the title complexes. Physico-chemical techniques were implemented, as required, to characterise the ligand and complexes. These include; elemental microanalysis, 1H, 13C-NMR and mass spectra, FT-IR and electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility and conductance. These analyses revealed the isolation of octahedral, square planar and tetrahedral geometry about Co (II) and Cu (II); Ni (II); and (Zn (II), Cd (II)) ions, respectively. Thermal stability (TGA-DSC) of the ligand and selected complexes were also investigated. The antimicrobial activity of the ligand and its complexes against several bacterial strains and fungi species were examined. The collected data indicated that the complexes are more active against several kinds of organisms, under survey, compared with the free ligand.
This paper examines the mechanical properties of a composite material made of modified Iraqi gypsum (juss) reinforced with polypropylene fibers. The modified juss was prepared by adding two percentages of cement (5, 10) %. Two percentages of polypropylene fibers were used, to reinforce the modified juss (1, 2) %. The water/dry compound ratio used was equal to 0.53%. The composite was evaluated based on compressive strength, flexural strengths, absorption percentage, density, acoustic impedance, ultra - pulse velocity, longitudinal shrinkage and setting time tests. The results indicated that the inclusion of cement on to juss increases the compressive strength, absorption percentage, density, acoustic impedance, ultra - pulse velocit

No-fine concrete (NFC) is cellular concrete and it’s light weight concrete produced with the exclusion of sand from the concrete. This study includes the mechanical properties of lightweight reinforced by steel fiber, containing different proportions of steel fiber. This study was done using number of tests. These tests were density, compressive strength, flexural strength and absorption. These tests of the molds at different curing time. The results of tests that implication of fiber to No. fine concrete did not affect significantly on the compressive strength, While the flexural strength were gets better. Results explained that, the flexural strength of (1%) fiber No- fine concrete molds are four times that of the reference mold

Background: Denture lining materials are widely used in prosthodontic treatment and management of traumatized oral mucosa. A contaminated prosthesis can provide a source of cross-contamination between patients and dental personnel as well as a cause for denture stomatitis. Therefore, denture disinfection has been recommended as an essential procedure for maintenance of a healthy oral mucosa. This study investigated the effect of SOLO disinfectant solution on some properties of different denture lining materials. Materials and methods: Three different solutions were used in this study; SOLO disinfectant solution, sodium hypochlorite solution, and water on three types of acrylic denture lining materials; hot cure, cold cure, and soft acrylic

The research is concentrated on the determination of the inverse design of the symmetrical double polepiece magnetic lenses whose magnetic field distribution is already defined. Magnetic lenses field model well known in electron optics have been used as the axial magnetic field distribution. This field has been studied when the halfwidth is variable and the maximum magnetic flux density is kept constant. The importance of this research lies in the possibility of using the present synthesis optimization procedure for finding the polepieces design of symmetrical double polepiece magnetic lenses which have the best proje

Thermal evaporation in vacuum technique has been used for films deposited on glass substrates, these films were annealed in vacuum at (100C°, 200C°) for (2 hours). The optical properties were studied in the range (300-900) nm. The obtained results revealed a reduction in energy band gap with annealing temperature . optical parameters such as reflectance, refractive index, extinction coefficient, real and imaginary parts of the dielectric constant, skin depth and optical conductivity are investigated before and after annealing. It was found that all these parameters were affected by annealing temperature.
