Modelling the strength of cashew nutshell ash-cement-based concrete

Magazine of Concrete Research, 2022
This study models the flexural strength of concrete modified with cashew nutshell ash (CNA) using reactivity index concepts. Cashew nutshell was valorised and its ash was used at 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt.% of cement via mix proportions of concrete grades C 25–40 targeted at 25–40 MPa at 28 days.

Cashew nutshell liquid extract as antioxidant for gasoline stabilization

Biofuels, 2015
Investigations have been carried out converting hydrogenated cardanol, a compound extracted from cashew nutshell liquid, into compounds with structural characteristics of antioxidants similar to the ones used in product derived from petroleum. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analysis of the raw oil indicated that the major components were cardanol (66 ...

A study of a water-reducing agent from cashew nutshell liquid

Construction and Building Materials, 1992
Abstract The water-reducing agent better known as superplasticizer is a recent development. A number of base materials have been used for the development of such water-reducing agents which can act better than ordinary plasticizers in concrete. The sulphonated salts of melamine, napthalene, lignin, hydroxycarboxylic acids and hydroxylated polymers ...

CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND KINETICS OF RUMINAL FERMENTATION OF COMPOSITE CASHEW NUTSHELL

Nigerian Journal of Animal Production
In Nigeria, the major constraint to livestock production is the scarcity of quality and insufficient supply of feed throughout the year. A non-conventional feedstuff could ameliorate the limitation. Therefore, this study was carried out to evaluate the chemical composition and in vitro fermentation characteristics of differently treated composite ...

Phosphorus Releasing Characteristics of Ogun Phosphate Rock Acidulated with Cashew Nutshell Liquid

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2018
ABSTRACTThe phosphorus (P) release characteristic of Ogun rock phosphate (OPR) acidulated with cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), an industrial waste, was studied under laboratory conditions for ten weeks. The results showed that the acidulation of phosphate rock with cashew nutshell liquid at a ratio of 4 to 1 released the highest quantity of available P.

Thermal evaluation of cashew nutshell liquid as new bioadditives for poly(methyl methacrylate)

Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2012
In this study, the thermal-oxidative stability of poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, 1 % additivated with replenishable phenolic lipids is evaluated by thermogravimetric (TG/DTG) analyses and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses. Since technical cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a byproduct from the cashew industry, is composed basically of two ...
