1. EFFECT OF COVID-19 ON FOOD VENDORS
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In many developing countries including Nigeria street food vendors have formed an integral part of the food supply chain, particularly following the advent of urbanization [Akintoro O. 2012]. The street food industry has contribu...
2. INFLUENCE OF TIG PROCESS PARAMETERS ON HARDNESS, TENSILE STRENGTH AND MICROSTRUCTURES OF AISI430 FERRITIC STAINLESS STEEL WELDS
ABSTRACT
The influence of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding process parameters on the microstructural features and mechanical properties (hardness and tensile strength) of AISI430 ferritic stainless steel (FSS) weldsbased on the central composite design (CCD) approach, was investigated....
3. A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE CORROSION OF STAINLESS STEEL IN 1M HYDROCHLORIC ACID USING Tamarindus indica (TAMARIND) AND Terminalia catappa (TROPICAL ALMOND) LEAVES EXTRACTS AS INHIBITORS
ABSTRACT
The effectiveness of Terminalia catappa (tropical almond) and Tamarindus indica (tamarind) as corrosion inhibitors for stainless steel in 1M hydrochloric acid at 30°C, 40°C and 50°C was investigated in this research. The gravimetric method of analysis was employed f...
4. MODIFICATION OF STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES FOR ADVANCED FUNCTIONALITIES
SUMMARY
In industry, business, and homes worldwide, metal alloys called stainless steels are used extensively. Stainless steel is a generic term for a large family of iron-based alloys containing a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by weight. The primary alloying element, chromium, form...
5. DETERMINATION OF THE EFFECT OF EXTRACTED OXYGEN HETEROCYCLE ON THE DEHYDROCHLORINATION OF VINYLIDENE CHLORIDE COPOLYMER
Statement of Problem
Thermally-induced degradation of vinylidene chloride copolymers has resulted in considerable losses of polymer material during the production process. The homolysis of the C – Cl bond set up a conjugated polyene sequence, which resulted in the coloration of th...
6. EFFECT OF MOISTURE CONTENT LEVELS ON SOME ENGINEERING PROPERTIES OF LOCUST BEAN (Parkia biglobosa) SEEDS
ABSTRACT
Locust bean (Parkia biglobosa) seed is a source of a nutritious and medicinal food condiment consumed in Nigeria. The drudgery associated with locust bean seed processing necessitates its mechanization. However, there is a dearth of information on the engineering properties of...
