Non-Metallic Material Science

Abstract: GHG emissions of methane (CH4) have double, and CO2 are close to double compared to pre-industrial levels. GHG emission mitigation is possible by avoiding their generation, or by emission mitigation technologies. CO2 can be stored/fixed in minerals, rocks, EOR, underground formations, chemicals, and polymeric materials and many more. Polymeric materials also play role in GHG mitigation,... More

Abstract: The research intends to bring out the contribution of leachate on groundwater in two dumpsites in Nguru and Potiskum all in Yobe state, Nigeria. A total of seven (7) and eight (8) VES by Schlumberger electrode with the use of Wenner electrode configuration. The results were interpreted by the use of WinRESIST for VES... More

Abstract: Impedance is the basic concept and quantity when measuring an electromagnetic field near the earth’s surface. It is shown how the antennas of the IPI device are oriented, and how the coordinate system is set. It is established why the phase difference of the electromagnetic field component is limited to the limits from zero to... More

Abstract: Superhydrophobic (SH) coatings are intended to resist a surface from corrosion and thereby increases the product life duration. It is also a promisingsolution to save cleaning costs and time by providing self-clean nature tothe surface. This review article provides the most recent updates in designing SH surfaces and their characterizations adopted both in experimentaland computational... More
