Investigation of the Compatibility of Binary and Ternary Polymer Systems

By Shixaliyev Kerem Sefi

Abstract: We have obtained mechanical strength of materials as a result not by synthesizing new polymers, but by using industrial polymers. We have developed a technology for obtaining new composite materials based on industrial multi-tonnage polymers of high-strength polyethylene (HSPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane thermoplastic elastomer (DUTEP), butyl rubber (BR), chlorocarboxylate polyethylene (CCPE), ethylene propylene rubber…

Development of Superabsorbent Polymers from Natural Sources

By Anita Gaur and Arya Chandra

Abstract: Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are special materials that can absorb and hold a very large amount of water compared to their own weight. They are commonly used in products such as baby diapers, sanitary items, agriculture, and wastewater treatment. Most of the SAPs used today are made from petroleum-based chemicals. These materials do not easily break…

Beneficiation of Low-Grade Iron Ores: Comprehensive Review of Conventional and Advanced Techniques

By Mihir D.M M and Vignesh Veeramani

Abstract: Due to the rapid depletion of high-grade iron ore resources and exponential demand from the global steel industry, particularly in India targeting 300 MTPA by 2025, the utilization of low-grade iron ores including Banded Hematite Quartzite (BHQ), Banded Hematite Jasper (BHJ), and lateritic iron ores has become critically important. These ores contain 30–50% Fe with…

Cognitive Metallurgy: A Study on Microstructure and Energy Efficiency in High-Temperature Alloying via Sensor Fusion and Deep Reinforcement Learning

By Kazi Sultanabanu Sayyad Liyakat, Heena T Shaikh, and Dr. Kazi Kutubuddin Sayyad Liyakat

Abstract: Background Traditional high-temperature metallurgical processes, such as continuous casting and specialty alloy synthesis, are characterized by high energy consumption, stochastic variability, and reliance on post-process defect inspection. The inability to precisely monitor, model, and predict the real-time thermal, chemical, and mechanical state of molten metal and cooling substrates results in significant material waste and inconsistent…
