Synthesis and Dielectric Properties of MgO:ZnO Composites

      The dielectric properties of the fabricated composites MgO:ZnO with various mixing ratios (100,75:25,50:50,25:75, and 100 wt. %)were investigated. The structure analysis was conducted using X-ray diffraction. The structure phase, crystallite size and purity of the fabricated MgO:ZnO composites were confirmed using X-ray diffraction spectra. The results declared that the diffraction spectrum of 100%MgO composite samples were compatible with cubic structure along the plane (200) while the structures of residual composite's samples were compatible with hexagonal structures. The crystal size of the most pronounced plane (101) for crystal growth was changed from 30.4 nm to 53.2 nm by increasing ZnO ratio from 25 to 100wt%. The dielectric properties were studied as function of frequency over the range (50Hz-10MHz). The a.c conductivity σa.c(ω) showed power low dependence for the full frequency range except for the composites samples of 0 and 75 %wt. ZnO which showed d.c region in the low frequency range. The exponent (s) values which represents the slope of ln σa.c(ω) and ln(ω) changed in non-regular manner by increasing the ZnO ratio. The dielectric constant ε1 and the dielectric loss ε2 increased with the increase of the ZnO ratio up to 75% ZnO and then decreased with further increase of ZnO ratio. The dielectric loss peaks observed in the plot diagram of ε2 against ln(ω)  is found to shift towards the high-frequency side which indicates the decrease of relaxation time and prompt  movement of charge carriers .The polarizability values (α)  estimated from the COLE –COLE diagram increased  from 0.112 to 0.467  when the ratio of ZnO changed from 0 to 50wt.% which referred to reduction of the intermolecular forces. While (α) reduced drastically at 75wt.% ZnO which referred to the growing of the intermolecular forces.

Synthesis, Characterization and Properties of Trimethylolpropane Triesters from Coconut (Cocos nucifera) Methyl Esters

In this study, the acid-alkaline transesterification of refined coconut seed oil (RCOSO) to fatty acid methyl ester was followed by the production of a trimethylolpropane-based thermosensitive biolubricant using potassium hydroxide, and its physicochemical characteristics were evaluated. The American Standard Test for Materials (ASTM) was employed to ascertain the biolubricant's pour point and index of viscosity, which were found to be -4 oC and 283.75, respectively. The opposite connection between lubricant viscosity and temperature was shown by the measured viscosities at varied transesterification to be transformed into biodiesel. Following this, a biolubricant was created by further transesterifiedtemperature. The ester gr

Calculation and Study of Gamma ray Attenuation Coefficients for Different Composites

In this work, the total linear attenuation coefficients µ(cm
-1
) were calculated and studied
for particulate reinforced polymer-based composites. Unsaturated polyester (UP) resin was
used as a matrix filled with different concentrations of Al, Fe, and Pb metal powders as
reinforcements. The effect of the metal powders addition at different weight percentages in
the range of (10,20,30,40,50)wt % and gamma energy on attenuation coefficients was studied.
The results show, as the metallic particulates content increase, the attenuation coefficients will
increase too, while it, were exhibited a decrease in their values when the gamma energy
increase.The total linear attenuation coefficients of gamma ray fo

Study of synthesis, stability and thermo-physical properties of graphene nanoplatelet/platinum hybrid nanofluid

In the present study a new synthesis method has been introduced for the decoration of platinum(Pt) on the functionalized graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) and also highlighted the preparation method of nanofluids. GNP–Pt uniform nanocomposite was produced from a simple chemical reaction procedure, which included acid treatment for functionalization of GNP. The surface characterization was performed by various techniques such as XRD, FESEMand TEM. The effective thermal conductivity, density, viscosity, specific heat capacity and stability of functionalized GNP–Pt water based nanofluids were investigated in different instruments. The GNP–Pt hybrid nanofluids were prepared by dispersing the nanocomposite in base fluid without adding any surfac

Green Synthesis and the Study of Some Physical Properties of MgO Nanoparticles and Their Antibacterial Activity

     Magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) were synthesized by a green method using the peels of Persimmon extract as the reducing agent , magnesium nitrate, and NaOH. This method is eco-friendly and non-toxic. In this study, an ultrasound device was used to reduce the particle size, with the impact on the energy gap was set at the beginning at 5.39 eV and then turned to 4.10 eV. The morphological analysis using atomic force microscopy (AFM)  showed that the grain size for MgO NPs was 67.70 nm which became 42.33 nm after the use of the ultrasound. The shape of the particles was almost spherical and became cylindrical.  In addition the Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) analysis sh

Study the Effect of Different Percentages of Natural (Orange Peels and Date Seeds) and Industrial Materials (Carbon and Silica) on the Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Polymeric Reinforced Composites

Mechanical and thermal properties of composites, consisted of unsaturated polyester resin, reinforced by different kinds of natural materials (Orange peels and Date seeds) and industrial materials (carbon and silica) with particle size 98 µm were studied. Various weight ratios, 5, 10, and 15 wt. % of natural and industrial materials have been infused into polyester. Tensile, three-point bending and thermal conductivity tests were conducted for the unfilled polyester, natural and industrial composite to identify the weight ratio effect on the properties of materials. The results indicated that when the weight ratio for polyester with date seeds increased from 10% to 15%, the maximum Young’s modulus decreased by 54%. When the weight rat

In Situ Measuring of Relative Dielectric Permittivity to Calculate Electromagnetic Wave Velocity

The relative dielectric permittivity (dielectric constant) values for various materials are measured on site. The calculated values that are derived from measuring the ratio of the electrical capacitance of a cell when the sample of the material is placed. Parallel plate technique that consists of two parallel circular metallic plates is used. The instrument made up of aluminum which acts as electrodes and stuffed inside the PVC cylinder. Then the thin sheet of material (models) sandwiched between the two plates. Calculation of dielectric constant (εr) through this new technique gives a new velocity value of electromagnetic wave that propagates underground. These measured velocity values will utilize in Ground Penetration Radar (GPR) da
