Investigation Of Material Properties Of Sintered Black Point-1 Lunar Regolith Simulant by Ogunyinka, Adebayo Olutumbi

“…The particle size distribution was investigated on Black Point-1 simulant to determine the effect of the porosity while the bulk properties of the material were also examined for each of the four porosity grades, and this includes toughness, Poisson ratio, bulk modulus, Young’s modulus of elasticity and compressive strength. …”

The tribological and wear properties of carbon-graphite composites by Morris, Justin Howard

“…Testing has been carried out using abrasive wear, dry sliding wear, particle erosion, slurry erosion, cavitation erosion and the corresponding wear rates have been related to the bulk properties of the different materials. In all tests; hardness, elastic modulus, porosity and the presence of fillers were found to influence the wear rates of the various grades. …”

Investigating the use of sodium silicate to improve the flotation performance of Platreef and UG2 PGE ores by Nyaruwata, Everjoice

“…These findings were supported by the PGM particle size distribution as it showed an increase in the amount of coarser particles at 2000 g/t sodium silicate. The modulus tests also revealed that the higher modulus had very little effect on the recovery but significantly lowered the concentrate grades. …”

Properties of Western Cape concrete with metakaolin by Bakera, Alice Titus

“…The experimental investigations involved six categories; i) Morphology of metakaolin using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis, ii) pozzolanic reactivity using three tests; strength activity index test, heat of hydration test (semi-adiabatic and isothermal calorimetry tests), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), iii) fresh properties of concrete assessed by setting time and workability, iv) hardened properties of concrete using compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, and porosity using Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP), v) deformation behaviour of concrete using static elastic modulus, and creep and shrinkage tests, and finally, vi) durability properties of concretes assessed by Durability Index (DI) tests, accelerated mortar bar test (ASR), accelerated carbonation test, and chloride bulk diffusion test. …”
