In this study, alkaline leaching using sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate analysis was applied on different raw samples while the raw samples were digested to analyse the uranium content prior to leaching using successively ICP-OES. The recovery of Uranium is by use of very economical alkaline leaching method. Ore samples: 1436, 1437, 1439 and 1440 were investigated for leachability of radioactive metal prior to leaching using digestion methods. Sample 1436, 1437, 1439 and 1440 assayed 918, 1883, 1757 and 121...

SYNTHESIS AND CHARATERIZATION OF POLY(BUTYLENE SUCCINATE)-L-PROLINE COMPOSITE EXTENDED WITH 1,6-DIISOCYNATOHEXANE

(STEF92 Technology, 2018-06-20, Mamookho Elizabeth Makhatha)

This study focused on the synthesis and characterization of L-proline polymer composite that will be tested for mild steel corrosion protection. Poly(butylene succinate) extended with 1,6-diisocyanatihexane (PBS) and L-proline were utilized to the synthesis of poly(butylene succinate)-L-proline composite. Solution polymerization was used as the method to get the amorphous water soluble polymer composite; and was characterized by FTIR, XRD and SEM. SEM-EDX of the polymerized composites was performed and the % count...
