Development of concrete boat by using lightweight concrete
The objective of this study aims to develop a concrete boat by using lightweight concrete. The use of granular foam replaced the aggregate in various quantities to reduce the weight of boat. The replacement ratios of aggregate by the granular foam were 0 25 50 75 and 100% by volume of aggregate. The test results of compressive strength tensile strength modulus of rupture and unit weight of concrete were used to find out the appropriate mixture for producing the concrete boat. The results indicated that the appropriate mixture for producing concrete boat was the replacement of aggregate by granular foam at 100% which had the compressive strength at 28 days of 50.59 kg/cm2 and the unit weight was 949.71 kg/m3. The weight of lightweight concrete was lighter than the normal concrete about 57%. The prototype of lightweight concrete boat which had 1.04 m wide 2.20 m long and 0.38 m height had about 50 kg of weight. The maximum weight capacity of the boat was 240 kg. The cost of a lightweight concrete boat was about 650 baht
The quality and consumer acceptance of corn milk powder with sugar coating and pasteurized process
The objective of this research was studied the quality and consumer acceptance of corn milk with sugar coating process and pasturization by selected from three corn milk formula. The first formula was the most appropriate. Then pasteurized corn milk with 3 levels of total soluble solid; 9 10 and 11 Brix respectively. The suitable total soluble solid for pasteurized corn milk was 11 Brix. Physicochemical properties. The color values L * a * b * pH equals 74.95 21.03 34.41 and 07.16 respectively. Protein fat fiber moisture ash citric acid lactic acid and carbohydrates. Percent 2.28 1.48 2.22 68.48 0.26 0.14 0.24 and 25.18 respectively. An average sensory score of an appearance viscosity taste and overall liking from 30 panelists had significant (p 0.05) higher than other treatments. The optimum corn milk powder by coating sugar with the ratio of corn milk : sugar was 50 % (by volume/weight) of sugar was dried in tray dryer at 70 C. The color values L * a * b * were 39.89 -2.10 and 10.38 respectively. The sensory acceptance of corn milk from the market was significant (p 0.05) higher score than reconstituted corn milk powder.
The design of floating house for use in thailand
This research is about analyzing the design of floating houses including area function structure and construction materials. Floating houses design are energy saving and security. The materials must be strong and durable. Moreover the materials must be resistant to moisture because floating houses are situated over the water which causes the high levels of moisture and rust. And the risk of corrosion. The researcher recognizes that this is important. research concludes as the followings :- 1. From the designs of floating house the shape of floating house is a triangular. The structure has 3 main parts connected as space frame making the structure to be very strong. 2. The function of used area inside the floating house has been considered about ventilation in the most effective way. There are an opened windows and doors for good air flow. 3. Regarding to the use of construction materials there are comparisons between 3 types of materials in order to choose the best type which is very durable for this floating house. 4. Structure Using steel structure that enhances strength durable easy to use and demolition.
Quality changes of nile tilapia fillets dipped in phosphate solution and coated with chitosan kept in refrigerated storage
Dipping of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fillets in the mixture solution of 2.0% sodium pyrophosphate and 0.5%sodium triphosphate and coating with 0.00.30.60.9 % chitosan solutions drained packed in polyethylene bags well sealed stored at 4๐C for 15 days were evaluated. The results showed the moisture of all sample did not statistically difference and quite constant during storage. The pH and TVB-N value increased with the storage period for all sample Coating with low concentration of chitosan resulted in lower pH fillets than higher concentration. The decreasing of pH resulted in decreasing of Water Holding Capacity (WHC) of the fillets. Increasing chitosan concentration increased pH and WHC. The oxidation of the samples revealed that the Thiobarbituric acid(TBA) of 0.3% chitosan was maximum and lower with increasing of chitosan concentration. Increasing of TBA may be because of acidity of chitosan solution activated fat hydrolysis. Nevertheless chitosan coating effectively inhibited growth of microorganism in the fillets.
Study of a small vacuum coating system for thermal evaporation
In this research we studied and fabricated a small vacuum coating system which is suitable for small pieces of the samples. It can help us to save in both cost and time for coating materials in each run. The home-built system consists of (1) a two-stage rotary pump used as a roughing and backing pump for a vacuum chamber and (2) a diffusion pump. The ultimate pressure of this diffusion pump is about 10-7 torr. From the result of testing the fabricated vacuum system it is found that the chamber pressure under the atmosphere can get down to 2.2 x 10-2 torr in 6 minutes by the rotary pump. The pressure inside the chamber is continuously lower to achieve 4.5 x 10-5torr in 30 minutes by the diffusion pump. Moreover we did further testing the system by coating pure aluminum (99.999%) on a Si (100) substrate using a resistive heater source made of tungsten with applied voltage and current of about 2.19 V and 110 A respectively. The aluminum surface has been investigated by SEM and AFM.
