A Review on Pyroprocessing Techniques for Selected Wastes Used for Blended Cement Production Applications
(Hindawi, 2020-08)Pyroprocessing is an important stage in cement manufacturing. In this process, materials are subjected to high temperatures so as to cause a chemical or physical change. Its control improves efficiency in energy utilization ... -
Roles of doping ions in afterglow properties of blue CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+ phosphors
(2014-04)Eu2+ doped and Nd3+ co-doped calcium aluminate (CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+) phosphor was prepared by a urea-nitrate solution combustion method at furnace temperatures as low as 500 °C. The produced CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+ powder was ... -
Structural and luminescence properties of SrAl2O4:Eu2+,Dy3+,Nd3+ phosphor thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition
(Elsevier, 2015-09)Thin films of Eu2þ doped and Dy3þ,Nd3þ co-doped Strontium Aluminate (SrAl2O4:Eu2þ,Dy3þ,Nd3þ) phosphors were grown on Si(100) substrates by a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique using a 266 nm Nd:YAG pulsed laser under ... -

Survey on Nanotechnology
(2019-07)Nanotechnology is a field where scientific knowledge and ideas emanating from the sub-atomic, atomic and molecular levels are applied in the manufacture of new and smart materials. Nanotechnology makes use of the novel ... -
Thalictramine, A new alkaloid from Thalictrum rhyncocarpum (Dill & Rich) and its anti-bacterial activity
(2014)Thalictrum rhyncocarpum, a creeping plant with fern-like leaves, is used in herbal medicine to treat various infections in parts of Africa. Previously, we reported In-vitro anti-bacterial activity of different parts (root, ... -
Thermal Resistivity of Chemically Activated Calcined Clays-Based Cements
(Springer, 2017-10)The study investigated the effects of selected potential chemical activators on thermal resistivity of calcined clay based cement mortars. 0.5 M Na2SO4 and 0.5 M NaOH were used as activator solutions. The chemical ... -
Thermoluminescence of SrAl2O4:Eu2þ, Dy3þ: Kinetic analysis of a composite-peak
(Elsevier, 2016-12)The kinetic analysis of thermoluminescence of beta-irradiated SrAl2O4:Eu2þ,Dy3þ is reported. The glowcurve is dominated by an apparently-single peak. It has been demonstrated using a number of tests including partial ... -
Trap characteristics of UV-activated Y3(Al,Ga)5O12:Ce3+phosphorsA
(Elsevier, 2015-12)tThis paper reports on the trap characteristics of commercially obtained Y3(Al,Ga)5O12:Ce3+phosphorpowder. The effects of UV irradiation time and different heating rates have been discussed using differentthermoluminescence ...
