Abstract. Cassava peel is one of agricultural waste that abundantly found in environment. One approach to utilize this waste is to apply it as filler in natural rubber latex. In this work‚ the cassava peel waste (CPW) was powdered and dispersed in alkanolamide-water dispersion system to modify its surface. The amount of fillers used was 0‚ 5‚ 10‚ 15‚ 20 and 25 phr (part per hundred rubber) and loaded in natural rubber latex (NRL) formulation system. The products then were casted by dipping method

❖ Jute is one of the most affordable natural fibres and is second only to cotton in amount produced and variety of uses of vegetable fibres. Jute fibres are composed primarily of the plant materials cellulose (major component of plant fibre) and lignin (major components of wood fibre). It is thus a ligno-cellulosic fibre that is partially a textile fibre and partially wood. It falls into the bast fibre category (fibre collected from bast or skin of the plant) along with kenaf‚ industrial hemp‚ flax

Effects Of Genetic Engineering On Agriculture The Effects of Genetic Engineering on Agriculture Agribiotechnology is the study of making altered agricultural products. Agribusiness is trying to alter the genes of already existing products to try to enhance the biocompetitiveness and adaptability of crops by enhancing plant resistance to drought‚ salinity‚ disease‚ pests and herbicides. They are going to try to enhance their growth‚ productivity‚ nutrient value‚ and chemical composition. The old

Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction The conversion of solid waste (waste glass) and fibers (bamboo fibers) into construction materials and its capability to fight against chemical weathering will be discussed in this study. Now a day‚ it is an exciting and innovative technology in the field of engineering. There are many studies had been formulated by researchers on how to minimize or be free in concrete deterioration in an economical way and some are using high-cost materials

Smoker pellets and wood chips are two of the most accessible and popular options for smoking food. They are two relatively modern twists on the use of smoke to preserve and flavor foods. In both cases‚ the basic principle remains the same—fire is applied to the fuel and smoke is produced; however‚ there are a couple of important differences between these two hardwood products. Let’s take a look at how they compare to each other. How do smoker pellets and wood chips differ? Both smoking pellets
