Advancing the Strength of Expansive Soil using BioEnzyme and Pond-Ash
Abstract: Expansive soils are problematic and prone to ground movements, which can seriously harm underlying structures and reduce their carrying ability. The expansive nature of soils is activated by moisture fluctuations, causing it to expand and contract. There are many stabilizing chemicals that have been used to treat Black Cotton soil, including lime, cement, and fly ash. Recently, it has become clear that using bio-enzymes to stabilize soil has a lot …

A Review on Polybutadiene Rubber Composites
Abstract: Rubber composites are crucial materials that obtained by the combination of two or more components i.e. rubber and filler, comprising with different fundamental properties. The composites are lighter yet stronger materials in nature with intermediate characteristics of both the initial ingredients. Polybutadiene rubber (PBR) is one of the highly produced global synthetic rubber having significant industrial applications. PBR composites showed improved physical, mechanical and thermal properties, with greater strength, resistance …
