The document analyzes the possibility of using ashes from chromium-tanned leather shavings as a colorant in soda-lime glass. The ashes and chromite were characterized and used to produce experimental glass batches. The ashes and resulting glass were analyzed and found to have similar compositions to the chromite and reference glass. It was determined that the ashes are a viable alternative colorant that can help reduce waste and raw material use in glass production. Further evaluation of color properties, chromium content, and optimization of the calcination process are recommended.

CHEMICAL DURABILITY AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PHOSPHATE GLASSES CONTAINING ...ijac123
In order to prepare a high quality glass with high water resistance, we investigated chromium iron phosphate glass because of its improved chemical durability. The introduction of chromium in sodiumiron-phosphate glasses is used to compare its effect with iron in inhibition of corrosion. The sodiumchromium-iron phosphate glass of composition 30Fe2O3-xCr2O3-(15-x)Na2O-55P2O5 (mol %),with (0≤x≤4) was produced by melting batches of (99,98% pure) Cr2O3, Fe2O3, Na2CO3, and (NH4)2HPO4 at 1080°C for one hour and pouring the liquid into the bench. The sample was annealed at 650°C for 48h. We have performed the measurement of X-Ray diffraction, and Infra Red spectroscopy. The chemical durability was evaluated by weight losses of glass samples after immersion in hot distilled water (90°C) for 30 days. Weight loss measurements showed a good chemical durability unlike borosilicate glass.
The Indian cement industry today stands at
260 MTPA capacity, with greater growth prospects
and promising future ahead. Cement industry has
been an excellent example of a fast growing sector
showing consistent and steady reduction in its
energy consumption. This has largely been
possible by steady and continuous improvement
across all equipments in cement manufacturing
process.
Zibo Xiangrun and Shandong Bairui manufacture all kinds of alumina adsorbent, desiccant, pseudo boehmite, alumina support, carrier and all kinds of alumina balls.
