ABSTRACTThe compounds in the binary system Ag2Se-Ag2S are known to undergo a phase transition to a superionic phase at a temperature which varies with concentration. The diffusion mechanism of Ag ions have been studied in a Molecular Dynamics formalism. We have calculated the diffusion coefficient as function of temperature and concentration and have calculated the activation energy for diffusion from the Arrhenius plot of DAg vs temperature. Results obtained for the end points Ag2Se and Ag2S agree with experimental measurements.

ABSTRACTOsmotic dehydration is a water removing process that carried out on a object by immersing the object into an hyper-tonic (osmotic) solution. The process is commonly applied on pre-drying of fruit. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of concentration and temperature of osmotic solution on moisture content change, total dissolved solids change and to determine of water diffusion coefficient and solid diffusion coefficient during the process of osmotic dehydration of dragon fruit. Factorial design was used with 2 factors, each consisting of 3 levels with 3 replication. The treatment on this research are : solution consentration of 30 °Brix, 50 °Brix, and 70 °Brix and solution temperature of 30 °C, 40 °C, and 50 °C were applied to this research. The osmotic dehydration process lasts for 8 hours. Initial moisture content of dragon fruit used for the research between 511.17-665.97 (% db). Moisture and solid diffusivities were in the range of 2.810 x 10-8 m²/s - 7.003 x 10-8 m²/s and 0.973 x 10-8 m²/s until 4.734 x 10-8 m²/s. The activation energy for diffusion of water to the concentration of 30 °Brix, 50 °Brix, and 70 °Brix respectively is 9.963 kJ/mol, 3.249 kJ/mol, and 5.372 kJ/mol. While the activation energy for diffusion of solids is 24.946 kJ/mol, 8.908 kJ/mol, and 27.343 kJ/mol.

ABSTRACTThe diffusion rate of Zn in AlxGa1−xAs alloys has been determined, for values of x up to 1.0, as a function of temperature. At 625°C the diffusion coefficient shows a strong dependence on x, reaching a maximum at about 65% Al. A similar rapid increase in diffusion coefficient with x is seen at 700°C. The zinc concentration profiles are similar for all values of x, showing a very abrupt diffusion front. The activation energy for diffusion decreases with increasing x.

This study investigated the addition of acrylic fiber to old corrugated container (OCC) pulp as a possible means of overcoming adverse effects of water-based pressure sensitive adhesives during manufacture of paper or paperboard. Such adhesives can constitute a main source of stickies, which hurt the efficiency of the papermaking process and make tacky spots in the product. The highest amount of acrylic fiber added to recycled pulps generally resulted in a 77% reduction in accepted pulp microstickies. The addition of acrylic fibers also increased pulp freeness, tear index, burst strength, and breaking length, though there was a reduction in screen yield. Hence, in addition to controlling the adverse effects of stickies, the addition of acrylic fibers resulted in the improvement of the mechanical properties of paper compared with a control sample.
