Aluminum is a lightweight material which are popularly used in various parts of the industry. However there are some limitations on the tribological properties such as abrasive wear and friction when it was compared to other metals. Tribological properties of aluminium was improved with anodizing process and silicon dioxide supplement. the effect of time on surface structure and friction coefficient were studied with with scanning electron microscope and sliding wear tester. It was found that friction coefficient of aluminium was decreased after improvement process was applied.

This paper present the engineering properties of asphalt (AC 60/70) modified with different ratios of crumb rubber. Then select the best properties of the binder to mix asphaltic concrete. From laboratory testing results with adding 11% crumb rubber into mixtures for the best results. The properties of asphaltic concrete can be improved by adding 11% crumb rubber. For asphaltic concrete Marshall Stability increased and flow decreased with adding crumb rubber into asphalt. Comparing to ordinary asphaltic concrete (AC 60/70) the rutting resistance was increased 18% for crumb rubber modified asphalt respectively. Moreover the fatigue resistance of crumb rubber modified asphalt improved to be 1.59 times compared to AC 60/70.

This paper present the engineering properties of asphalt (AC 60/70) modified with different ratios of natural rubber. Then select the best properties of the binder to mix asphaltic concrete. From laboratory testing results with adding 6% natural rubber into mixtures for the best results. The properties of asphaltic concrete can be improved by adding 6% natural rubber. For asphaltic concrete Marshall Stability increased and flow decreased with adding natural rubber into asphalt. Comparing to ordinary asphaltic concrete (AC 60/70) the rutting resistance was increased 22% for natural rubber modified asphalt respectively. Moreover the fatigue resistance of natural rubber modified asphalt improved to be 2.06 times compared to AC 60/70.

This research to study the possibility of material pozzolan as binder by replacment cement by fly ash (FA) and meta kaolin (MK) some for testing compressive strength flexural strength and impact strength of concrete vary the ratio of water to binder (w / b) of 0.40 and 0.45 and the amount of fly ash to replace cement some 15 % 30 % MK and 35% for 10% 15% and 20% by weight of cement. The sample consisted of a cylinder diameter of 10 x 20 cm beam sizes 10 x 10 x 40 cm and 4 x 4 x 16 cm from the test results showed that the concrete samples at 28 days and w/ b of 0.40 to greater than 0.45 all mixed. the compressive strength by replacing cement with FA increase up to 30 % compression of 382 ksc higher than the 20 percent replace by MK were equal to 354 ksc and 32.48 ksc compared to replace cement with FA 15 % is equal to 31 ksc 30% were equal to 30 ksc and 45% were equal to 23.85 ksc while the MK was replaced by 10% were equal to 40.10 ksc higher than to 15% and 20% respectively. The control sample was replaced with MK by 10% is equal to 111 joules maximum replaced by fly ash more than 30% were equal to 110 joules and MK were 15% fly ash 15 and 45 percent respectively.

The purpose of this research were to 1) study the production factors and efficiency of fireproof suit; 2) analyze the three line balancing models of fireproof suit; and 3) make comparison of production efficiency for fireproof suit’s manufacturing processes. A group of representative sample for assessments is 90 dressmakers of Creative Polymers Co. Ltd. The used tool for collecting data is the data recoding form consisting of production process list data recording date processing operation and duration of processing. Accordingly put the sewing line layout and make production test with the three line balancing models of fireproof suit then record all data and entry all data to SPSS program to average statistics on percentage and standard deviation. The research showed that the improvement of the three line processing models of fireproof suit comparing to the data of the three line balancing models are identified that C model increased from traditional production system 74.05 percentage B model increased from traditional production system 57.51 percentage then A model increased from traditional production system 48.53 percentage. The result showed that the fireproof suit’s production processing of Creative Polymers Co. Ltd. ought to take the C model in order to fasten production process and augment better quality. A minimum process of producing is amount of 110 steps with less time per one unit; minimum 177.41 minutes; with 30 workers; and 27 machines. The waste product of the three line processing models: A B and C model; not over 20 percentage during 8 hours of working. It shows that the c model has the least of waste product. The over operation that product has not much wasted not include in choosing the model for improving production efficiency and C model
