Effect of silica fume additions on the hydration behaviour of calcium aluminates [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
In the recent refractory castables technology, the calcium aluminate cement is being replaced in increasing proportion by very fine matrix components, such as silica fume and colloidal alumina.

Characterization of paraffin-based fuels and paraffin waxes for hybrid rocket engines

open access: yes, 2015
This thesis develops an investigation on the rheological and mechanical properties of a class of paraffin-based fuels for hybrid rocket engines. They are obtained by mixing a paraffin wax and a polymer (SEBS, EVA and PE). Mixtures have a content of polymer equal to a 2,5%, 5%, 7,5% and 10%.

Alkali‐Metal Base Catalyzed Electrocyclization of Isoprene Derivatives

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Simple and abundant alkali‐metal base catalysis in combination with Lewis basic polyamines enables the electrocyclization of isoprene‐derived trienes to cycloheptadienes under neat conditions. Mechanistic insight supported by DFT guides a scalable route to seven‐membered carbocycles which, after reduction, give saturated cycloalkanes relevant as ...

PROSPECTS FOR THE USE OF WASTE OILS AS ALTERNATIVE FUEL IN TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESSES OF MANUFACTURING OF CASTINGS AND FOUNDRY MOLDS

open access: yesЛитьë и металлургия, 2015
Quantitative and qualitative composition of the gas emission has been investigated. Quantity of CO, СО2, NOx, О2, paraffin hydrocarbons and benzene derivatives in the reaction zone depending on the duration of the process and temperature 400–800 ºС has ...

The Effect of Individual Hydrocarbons in the Composition of Diesel Fuel on the Effectiveness of Depressant Additives

open access: yesInventions
The use of depressant additives is the most effective and cost-effective way to improve the low-temperature properties of diesel fuels, like the cloud point, cold filter plugging point and pour point.

Hydroprocessing of synthetic kerosene over a non‐sulphided Ni/Al2O3 catalyst: Impact of alcohols and ketones on alkene conversion

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Synthetic jet fuel containing non‐petroleum‐derived kerosene can be produced from synthetic kerosene obtained through processes that include a hydroprocessing step. The potential use of non‐sulphided (reduced) nickel supported on alumina (Ni/Al2O3) was evaluated as an alternative to sulphided catalysts to saturate alkenes in sulphur‐free ...

Durene conversion in a methanol‐to‐jet process: Exploring conversion at 150–350°C over different acid catalysts

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Acid catalyzed conversion of durene by isomerization, disproportionation, and transalkylation is of interest to the development of a methanol‐to‐jet process to reduce the amount of durene in the kerosene. It was of interest to determine whether durene conversion could be performed at a temperature lower than 350°C.

Regression Rate and Combustion Efficiency of Composite Hybrid Rocket Grains Based on Modular Fuel Units

open access: yesAerospace
This study investigated combustion characteristics of composite fuel grains designed based on a modular fuel unit strategy. The modular fuel unit comprised a periodical helical structure with nine acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene helical blades.
