Abstract

In this study, polyaniline was successfully synthesized using an oxidative polymerization method at room temperature. The polymerizations were carried out with and without stirring process under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. The polyaniline was characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM, SAA, and Four Point Probe. It is found that UV irradiation and stirring could increase the surface area and conductivity of polyaniline. The surface area obtained for stirred and unstirred polymerization were 37.9 m2/g and 29.0 m2/g, respectively. Moreover, conductivity values for stirred and unstirred polymerization were found as 1.22 S/cm and 1.08 S/cm respectively. This result shows that polyaniline synthesized by stirring treatment obtained uniform morphology, smaller size, greater crystallinity, higher BET surface area, and higher conductivity than that that of without stirring.

Abstract

This study used the cast-in-situ method to make concrete based on rice husk ash and pineapple leaf fiber. Rice husk ash and pineapple leaf fiber were used as the cement substitutes with different variations: 0%, 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%. Parameters examined in this study included density, porosity, water absorption, flexural strength, and compressive strength using a universal testing machine and Material Testing equipment, which were then analyzed morphologically using SEM-EDX. The result showed a density of  2.510 × 103 − 2.451 × 103 kg/m3, porosity of 7.64 – 5.73 %, water absorption of 0.296 % – 0.243 %, compressive strength of 23.66 – 16.45 MPa, flexural Strength of 33.3 – 25.3 MPa. The morphological analysis showed that the rice husk ash and pineapple leaf fiber addition was responsible for the concrete's porous structure in this study has a porous structure. The EDX analysis result exhibited a high carbon percentage.

Abstract

Studying the evolution of the MgB2 superconductor manufacturing process to improve critical temperature is important. The solid-state approach was used in this work to create a low-cost MgB2 superconductor. Variations in the purity of Boron were used as control parameters to evaluate the impact of dry milling on the production of the MgB2 bulk and low-temperature electrical properties. A 2:1 stoichiometric ratio of magnesium and boron powder was weighed and ground for 30 minutes. The ground powder was compressed and sintered for one hour at 1073 K. We were able to confirm through XRD and SEM research that the small particle size improved the MgB2 phase fraction and increase crystallite size in the production of the MgB2 sample. At 1073 K and 200 um of Mg, the sample sintered produced an MgB2 phase of 99.3%. The critical onset temperature (Tc-offset) improved from 39 to 40K, respectively.

Abstract

Transformers are critical component in electric power system, where minimizing energy losses is essential for efficiency and reliability. While ideal transformers operate with zero losses, practical transformers dissipate energy through winding and core losses caused by resistive heating. This study investigates the impact of three cooling media with ambient air, mineral oil, and liquid nitrogen on the efficiency and thermal performance of a 1 kVA single phase copper wound transformer. The experiment applied a resistive load under each cooling condition, recording input and output parameters using a HIOKI power meter model PW3360. Thermal behavior was monitored using infrared thermography and thermocouples. Copper winding resistivity was evaluated using a four-point probe within a cryogenic magnet system. The results show that liquid nitrogen cooling significantly reduced copper resistivity due to low-temperature conditions, achieving a transformer efficiency of 89.9%. Oil cooling improved efficiency to 86.0%, compared to 80.7% with air cooling. Although liquid nitrogen provided the greatest efficiency enhancement, its practical use is limited due to handling complexity and cost. In contrast, oil cooling offers a more feasible and effective solution for improving transformer performance in real world applications. These finding provide valuable insight for optimizing transformer thermal management strategies in power systems.

Abstract

Peningkatan sifat superkonduktor MgB2 melalui penambahan doping telah banyak dilakukan. Meskipun begitu, pembuatan kawat superkonduktor MgB2  belum secara optimal dihasilkan akibat porositas yang terbentuk dari struktur lapis MgB2. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis efek penambahan doping nikel terhadap nilai kristalinitas dan kepadatan serta temperatur optimum dalam sintesis kawat superkonduktor berbasis MgB2. Variabel proses pada sampel yang digunakan yaitu variasi persen berat doping Nikel dan temperatur sintering. Karakterisasi   yang   digunakan   meliputi   Xray   Diffraction   (XRD),   Scanning   Electron Micoscope-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), dan Cryogenic Magnet. Pembuatannya menggunakan proses metalurgi serbuk dengan metode powder in tube secara in-situ dan manufaktur pengerolan kawat. Pengerolan dilakukan reduksi ukuran diameter 6 mm menjadi 4 mm, serta panjang awalnya 10 cm menjadi ±26 cm. Dari hasil XRD menunjukkan bahwa sampel dengan doping nikel menghasilkan fasa primer MgB2  dan fasa sekunder MgNi2.5B2  serta beberapa pengotor (MgO dan Mg) dengan ukuran kristalit lebih meningkat dibandingkan MgB2 tanpa doping. Dari gambar SEM, sampel tampak menunjukkan penurunan jumlah porositasnya. Sampel yang disinter 750°C merupakan temperatur optimal dalam  mensintesis superkonduktor MgB2   yang  didoping nikel  karena  memiliki  Tc  onset tertinggi sebesar 42,53 K dan porositas terendah pada pendopingan nikel sebesar 20 persen berat yaitu sebesar 13,5% porositas.

Abstract

The polycrystalline sample of La0.8-xAgxCa0.2MnO3 (x = 0.1 and 0.15) has been successfully synthesized using a sol-gel method in our previous work. Here, we have investigated the electrical resistivity and magnetoresistance of both samples. All samples exhibited metallic behavior, as evidenced by the resistivity data measured in the temperature range from 9 to 285 K. As silver concentration increases, the resistivity decreases throughout the whole explored temperature range. Increasing silver ion concentration improves double exchange interaction (DE) between Mn3+ and Mn4+ which is responsible for gradually decreasing resistivity. The electrical transport is quite well described by a theory based on grain boundary factor, electron-electron interaction, and Kondo-like spin-dependent scattering mechanisms. Both samples show low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) at low temperatures. The maximum magnetoresistance values for both samples were observed at 15 K, with values of -23.16% and -25.17% for x = 0.10 and 0.15, respectively.
