Abstract: The paper presents the results of ferriferous wastes modification process research carried on the basis of JCS “Leninobad rare metals Plant” located in the Republic of Tajikistan. The wastes for the study were taken from the western tailing. The article presents the justification of the chosen wastes as a filling material in the development of new radiation protective composite building materials. The data on the initial ferriferous chemical composition of the tailing wastes and the chemical composition of the material that passed the enrichment process is presented. The study contains microphotos of ferriferous haematite raw material particles surface before and after completing the modifying process. The paper presents and describes the study of X-ray phase analysis diffractograms of enriched iron-containing wastes before and after the modification process. The current research proves that the enrichment ferriferous wastes particles modification process is possible and as a result it can be used as a filling for the development of new kinds of radioprotective composite materials.

Abstract: In the work the bituminous-polymeric composition stable against action of external factors is designed taking into account literature-patent researches and industrial needs. The basic physical-mechanical and thermophysical properties of the designed bituminous-polymeric composition are investigated, and also change of water absorption, shrinkage with time and flammability is studying. The technology of manufacturing bitumen-polymer composition in production is described. The designed bituminous-polymeric composition on some indicators, in particular on heat resistance and flexibility is better than existing analogs that allows its introduction.

Abstract: Sorption resistances of environmentally friendly polymeric materials in different liquid mediums are studying in this work. As part of environmentally friendly polymeric materials based on polylactide, OK compost HOME plastic and coffee grounds sorption studying in different liquid mediums, the most stable compositions were identified in terms of size stability and diffusion coefficient. microscopic analysis of new environmentally friendly polymeric materials before and after exposure in operating liquid mediums was made and compositions with the least surface changes were determined.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the problem of raw material base expanding and improving construction and technical properties of porous granular materials. The results of experimental studies of silicate compositions based on liquid glass and technogenic fillers containing burnable or gas-forming components are presented. Influence of molding mixtures’ composition on thermal expansion nature of granular compositions was established. Preference of a filler combined, containing glass cullet, silica clay and mineral additives was revealed. Multicomponent composition of a filler helps to intensify composition’s expansion. Electron microscopy studies of porous silicate granules have confirmed the advantages of combined fillers using. Effectiveness of sodium additive introduction to regulate technological properties of the raw material and the process of pores formation has been proven. Expediency of mechanical activation of a raw mixture to reduce the temperature of expansion and obtain granules with a bulk density of not more than 300 kg/m³ has been determined.

Abstract: Systems of floor insulation on the ground, isolation of roads and shallow foundations suggest the use of heat-insulating products resistant to moisture, the minerals contained in it, having low heat conductivity and water absorption and relatively high strength for compressive loads.The aim of the research was to study the possibility of using mineral substances containing crystalline water as a dispersed component. Firstly, such compounds as a reinforcing component increase the strength characteristics of products. Secondly, being flame retardants, they contribute to increasing the fire safety of materials and building systems in which these materials are used. To achieve this goal, two particular tasks were set: determination of the optimal consumption of mineral modifying additives; assessment of exploitative stability of the received products. It was found that the introduction of a mineral modifying additive can significantly increase the compressive strength by 10% deformation of samples from extruded polystyrene foam. The exploitative stability of products with a mineral additive varies slightly and depends on its consumption and uniform distribution in the product matrix. The effect of additive consumption on the change in the thermal conductivity of products has not been established. A nomogram has been built which allows one to evaluate the properties of products and determine the optimal consumption of a modifying additive.Systems of using products from modified extruded polystyrene foam in monolithic foundations with insulation for buildings erected on problem soils are considered.

Abstract: The effect of modified silica fume (mSF) and cellulose fiber (CF) content on the cure characteristics, mooney viscosity, mechanical, durability and heat resistance properties are investigated; as compared with SF and unfilled natural rubber. From the results reveal that mSF and CF affect not only fast cure rate, high viscosity but also improve rubber mechanical and heat resistance properties. Additionally, the mSF and CF are added into the natural rubber to produce antivibration rubber product and then study the rubber product performance such as durability properties. The mSF and CF effective in improving the crack resistance of antivibration rubber product more than SF and unfilled natural rubber which is due to enhancing the stiffness. The all obtained results, it can be proved that mSF and CF as the new alternative fillers in rubber industry.

Abstract: In the article the effect of fillers of various chemical nature on the corrosion resistance of polyester powder coatings in terms of flaking widths and corrosion expansion widths in accordance with DSTU ISO 4628-8: 2012 was reviewed. According to the results of studies, the effectiveness of the use of fillers to increase the corrosion resistance of the powder coating varies depending on the average particle size and crystalline form of the filler was found. As a rule, in order to receive a powder coating based decorative coating you should apply only one layer of paint, while liquid coatings require applying several layers; this increases the time of coating production. The powder coating can be easily utilized and recycled, thus the economic feasibility of production increases.

Abstract: The possibility of increasing crack resistance, strength and elastic modulus of polymer-containing compositions due to the directed organization of their structure by internal, external and complex activation is investigated. Filled polymer compositions are presented as open complex dynamic systems. This made it possible to use rational fillers and special matrix-transformer of external electromagnetic influences as factors for controlling the processes of their structure formation and hardening to obtain materials with the required properties.

Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of modified hydroxypropyl tapioca starch (HPTS) and % drug loading on physical property of tablet. Paracetamol was used as model drug because of its poor compressibility. The filler ability of modified HPTS such as hydroxyl propyl oxidized tapioca starch (HPOTS), hydroxyl propyl crosslinked tapioca starch (HPCTS) and pregelatinized tapioca starch (PTS) were evaluated and compared with the commercial starch (Starch 1500^®). Tablets were prepared by direct compression method and the percent drug loading were 15, 30, 45, 60, 75%. For modified HPTS, the hardness of the tablets tended to decrease when the concentration of paracetamol increased. At drug concentrations of 15-30%, HPOTS exhibited good performance of tablet as indicated by the high hardness, low friability and acceptable disintegration time. The obtained results were better than HPTS and comparable to Starch 1500^®. Moreover, the results revealed that tablet containing PTS provided the highest hardness and prolonged disintegration time (>30 min) while tablet containing HPCTS showed rapid disintegration time (<2 min). Therefore, modified HPTS disclosed promising properties for application as tablet filler
