Abstract An analysis of models (presented in available world literature) for the twist of multi-folded threads consisting of two component fibre streams (doubled thread, doubled yarn) is discussed. The possibility of forecasting the twist value of the component streams for an accepted twist value of the multi-folded t…

Several investigations have examined magnesia-based investments for pure titanium casting. However, the thermal expansion value was insufficient at low casting temperatures and high interfacial reactivity occurred at high casting temperatures. The purpose of this investigation was to modify a magnesia-based investment…

We recently reported on a co-occurrence-based method for texture analysis. This paper uses this texture analysis method to examine the development of the texture during hydroentangling as a function process conditions. We report on the development of texture as a function of hydroentangling energy. Energy was varied b…

Abstract The sorption and diffusion behavior of a series of aromatic solvents through blends of nitrile rubber (NBR) and epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) have been studied in the temperature range of 28–70°C. The effect of blend ratio, penetrant size and temperature on the transport properties was investigated. The rel…

Conventional static and new dynamic drape coefficients of silk woven fabrics are examined precisely to distinguish those features of each classified fabric by its yarn structure using our regression equations. We find that Shantung has large values of static drape coefficient D, and small node number n, revolving drap…

Weight fractions of four dominant phases (C 3 S, C 2 S, C 4 AF and C 3 A) present in the NIST Reference Portland clinkers 8486, 8487 and 8488 were estimated by a series of Rietveld refinements. Calculated powder patterns were derived from the structural data for monoclinic C 3 S and C 2 S, orthorhombic C 4 AF and cubi…

Abstract Modules 〈P〉 and 〈S〉 which taken separetely constitute the structures of pyroxene and spinel respectively, may give rise, in combination, to a wide polysomatic system ranging between these two minerals as end members. The system is firstly discussed on the basis of complex layers 〈P m S n P m 〉, built up by so…

Abstract Ultra high molar mass polyethylene (UHPE) was melted at 160°C for various times or at various temperatures for 5 min and then the crystallization of the UHPE was carried out on cooling. It was found that the crystallization temperature decreased as the heating time or heating temperature increased. During the…

Hollow plastic parts can be made by a number of manufacturing methods, but only rotational moulding offers the ability to create one-piece, stress-free parts with attractive economics. However, the fundamental nature of rotational moulding is such that cycle times are long. Consequently, the plastic is subjected to re…
