    Synthesis and characterization of schiff base of 3-[(2-Hydroxy-phenylimino)-methyl]-6-methoxy-quinolin-2-ol and its metal complexes and their evaluation for antibacterial and antifungal activity
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2020-01-29) Jabbi, Abubakar Muhammad; Husaini, Husaini, Musa Musa; Aliyu, Aliyu, Habu Nuhu Habu Nuhu
    A Schiff base of 3-[(2-Hydroxy-phenylimino)-methyl]-6-methoxy-quinolin-2-ol was synthesized by a 1:1 molar condensation of 2-Hydroxy-6-methoxy-3-quinolinecarboxaldehyde and 2-aminophenol. The metal (II) complexes were synthesized by refluxing the ethanolic solutions of the Schiff base and the chloride salts of the metals. Melting point, decomposition temperature, solubility, elemental analysis, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductivity measurements were used to characterized the Schiff base and its metal complexes. The Schiff base is yellow and it has a melting point of 251 OC. The decomposition temperature of the Cd (II) and Cu (II) complexes were 282 and 270 OC respectively. The elemental analysis of the complexes established the formation of 1:1 metal - ligand ratio. The non-electrolytic natures of the complexes were revealed by the molar conductivity values. The behavior of the Schiff base and its coordination with the metal ions was suggested by the infrared spectral data via the azomethine nitrogen and hydroxyl oxygen after deprotonation. The solubility test of the Schiff base and its metal complexes were carried out by using different solvents. The antibacterial and antifungal activity were performed and discussed.

    Study of corrosion inhibition performance of Glutaraldehyde on Aluminium in nitric acid solution
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2019-12-29) Husaini, , Musa Musa; Usman, Bishir Bishir; Ibrahim, Muhammad Bashir
    The inhibition effect of glutaraldehyde on the corrosion behavior of aluminium in 1.4 M nitric acid solution was studied using weight loss method, adsorption studies and characterized instrumentally by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopic (FT-IR) analysis. The effects of inhibitor concentration, temperature and surface coverage were all investigated. The effect of inhibitor concentration and other parameters were evaluated for different inhibitor concentrations and the probable mechanism for the studied inhibitor was also proposed. The results showed that glutaraldehyde possess an excellent inhibiting effect toward the corrosion of aluminium in nitric acid solution with highest inhibition efficiency of 84.68, 81.34 and 76.87 % at 308, 313 and 318 K in the presence of 0.1 M inhibitor concentration. The values of the activation energy, rate constant, half-life and rate constant in uninhibited acid solution were 31.84 kj mol-1, 3.9 k ×10-3 hr-1 and 1.76 × 102 hr which changed to 57.64 kj mol-1, 0.60 k ×10-3 hr-1 and 11.55 hr in the presence of 0.1 M inhibitor concentration. The positive values of enthalpy reflect the endothermic nature of the reaction. The negative values of entropy (ΔS) signified that the activated complex in the rate determining step represented an association, rather than dissociation. The adsorption of the inhibitor on the metal surface followed Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

    Kinetic and thermodynamic studies of malachite green adsorption using activated carbon prepared from desert date seed shell
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2020-01-30) Yunusa, Umar; Usman , ,Bishir; . Ibrahim, . Ibrahim, Muhammad Bashir Muhammad Bashir
    The negative effect of high concentration of dyes in the aquatic environment on humans and aquatic plants prompted this research. The adsorption of hazardous malachite green (MG) from aqueous solution using activated carbon derived from desert date seed shell (DDAC) was examined. Batch equilibrium technique was employed to study the effect of contact time (5-120 min), initial concentration (20-100 mg dm-3) and temperature (303.15-333.15 K) on the adsorption capacity of the prepared adsorbent. Experimental data were analyzed using five kinetic models: pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, Elovich, intraparticle diffusion and Boyd models and it was found that the pseudo-second-order model fitted the adsorption data most with the highest correlation (R2 = 0.9999). The overall adsorption process appears to be jointly controlled by intraparticle diffusion and film diffusion mechanisms. Studies of thermodynamic behavior revealed negative values for ΔG (-11.45 to -13.42 kJ mol-1), and a positive value for ΔH (8.39 kJ mol-1) and ΔS (0.065 kJ mol-1 K-1). These indicated the feasibility, endothermicity and spontaneity of the removal process. The results demonstrated that the adsorbent could be exploited in the removal of MG from aqueous solution.

    Influence of a different fault scenarios on the properties of multi-phase induction machine
    (2020-01-25) Khadara, Saad
    This paper deals with the influence of a stator fault, power switch faults and open phase fault conditions on the properties of a five-phase induction machine under open-end stator winding (OeW-FPIM). This paper will develop an accurate mathematical model to simulate the faulty OeW-FPIM drives. The proposed model is based on the theory of electromagnetic coupling of electrical circuits coupled to the differential equation system governing the machine behavior in presence of the stator winding faults. In fact, when a short circuits between coils occurs, the stator winding function of the injured phase changes. As a consequence, the stator resistance, the stator inductance of this phase and its mutual inductance with all the other circuits change also. Consequently, the inductances and resistance matrices will be changed by taking into account the introduced coefficients of short-circuited turns. The performance of the OeW-FPIM drives have been tested via simulation under different fault scenarios conditions.

    Experimental study of exfoliation corrosion-induced mechanical properties degradation of Aluminum alloys: 2024-T3 and 5083-H22
    (2020-02-04) Brahamia, Abdessamad; Fajouib, Jamel; Bouchouichaa, Benattou
    In the present paper, the impact of exfoliation corrosion (EFC) of 2024 and 5083 aluminum alloys on the residual mechanical properties was investigated. Tensile test had been carried out on pre-corroded specimens, exposed to laboratory accelerated exfoliation corrosion solution. The analysis suggests that exfoliation exposure leads to decrease the mechanical properties of all materials. The effects of the grain boundary character distribution and precipitates on corrosion are discussed on the basis of experimental observations by Scanning Electron Microscope SEM combined with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy EDS analysis.
