ABSTRACT

Accordingly, ultrasonic measurements have been used by several authors to monitor the evolution of the viscoelastic moduli of polymers as a function of time or temperature and, recently, become a characterization technique of its own right, generally known as ultrasonic dynamic mechanical analysis (UDMA). Often the technique is used in conjunction with rheological methods as a means of providing a better insight into the viscoelastic behavior of polymer systems. As yet UDMA is underutilized primarily because of the low operating temperatures (usually below 100°C) of commercially available ultrasonic transducers, and also due to the requirement of a coupling medium to ensure an efficient energy transfer mechanism between the transducer and the test material. Despite these limitations, this paper shows that the use of ultrasonics is potentially a powerful method for the characterization of polymers, particularly as a tool for online monitoring of events occurring during polymer processing and in the manufacture of polymer matrix composites. The aim of this paper is to review the progress made in recent years, highlighting the potential and reliability of UDMA for monitoring physical transitions in polymers such as glass transition, melting, crystallization, as well as physical changes taking place during curing of thermosetting resins.

INTRODUCTION

Notwithstanding the way that the material science behind ultrasound age, propagation, ID, and change into practical information is decently marvelous, its clinical application is much less intricate. Since ultrasound imaging has improved gigantically all through the latest decade, it can give anaesthesiologists opportunity to honestly picture target nerve and appropriate anatomical structures. A ultrasound-guided nerve square is a fundamental improvement district for new employments of ultrasound advancement and has become an essential bit of nearby sedation. Understanding the fundamental ultrasound material science presented here will be helpful for anaesthesiologists to appropriately pick the transducer, set the ultrasound structure, and a short time later get satisfactory imaging. Ultrasonic Studies Term ultrasonic got from the Latin words "ultra" implies past, and "sonic" connotes sound. Ultrasonic is the piece of material science stressed over ultrasonic waves; it is portrayed as the vibrations of frequencies more important than the uttermost spans of the discernible range for individuals that are, more critical than around 20 KHz. Ultrasonics is the mix of science and development that is investigation of acoustics and the advancement of sound. Sonic term is applied to those ultrasound waves which are ranges between high frequencies. Figure 1: Ultrasonic Frequency Spectrum As indicated by recurrence, sonic range is partitioned into primary three districts: (a) low repeat, high power ultrasound (b) high repeat, medium power ultrasound (c) high repeat, low power ultrasound Low repeat sonic waves ranges between 20 KHz to 100 KHz, high repeat yet medium power ultrasound ranges between 100 KHz to 1 MHz and high repeat MHz are used in clinical and decisive ultrasound (Kocis and Figura, 1996). Ultrasonic waves are undeniable from electromagnetic waves in that they required a vehicle for propagation. Like some other wave, a ultrasound wave is portrayed by its repeat (f), speed (U) and plentifulness or power (A). Acoustic waves can be appointed longitudinal waves, shear waves and surface or Rayleigh waves. In longitudinal waves the particles advance toward the dislodging, while in shear waves the improvement is inverse to the improvement of the wave (Benson, 1972). The forefront ultrasonic time began in mid-twentieth century by Langevin's. Current ultrasonic's was begun using high-repeat acoustic waves and quartz resonators for submarine area in 1917. The starting stage progress of ultrasonics is moderate anyway it was predictable in the estimations of the propagation constants of materials. Early achievements joined Pierce's quartz-driven ultrasonic interferometer in 1925 and the disclosure in 1932 by Debye and Sears and moreover by Lucas and Biquard of the ultrasonic diffraction pounding. A critical event during 1930 was the initiating work of Sokolov in 1934 in ultrasonic blemish area. Ultrasonic Waves The ultrasonic waves are transmitted through a substance. The substances are of two sorts. Each type causes express advancement in part. The manners in which that these parts follow and move considering the wave are called their circles. Dependent upon the course of propagation, simple waves are disengaged into two sorts, for instance, if the circles bearing and line of propagation are comparing to each other, the waves are called longitudinal waves. If the parts way and orientation of propagation is inverse to each other, the waves are called transverse waves or shear waves. Offer adaptability doesn't have in liquid along these lines, transverse waves can't exist in liquid medium. Figure 2 Propagation of Ultrasonic Waves in Liquid Medium Due to short wavelength rectilinear propagation characteristic exhibited. Because of short wavelength ultrasonic waves have many applications. To investigate the structural and physicochemical Production of Ultrasonic Waves Depending upon the frequency range and power output, the ultrasonic generators can be divided into two groups: • Mechanical Generators • Electrical Generators I) Mechanical Generators: They are further divided into two groups: • Gas Driven • Liquid Driven Gas Driven: Galton‘s Whistle and Siren these are simple devices to produce ultrasonic waves with frequencies up to 30 KHz. Liquid Driven: One form of energy is converted into another form by using a device called as a transducer. II) Electrical Generators: They are widely used for producing ultrasonic and are subdivided into two categories: • Magnetostriction Generator • Piezoelectric Generator

Magnetostriction Generator:

Magnetostriction is the property by which ferromagnetic material changes in length when placed in a magnetic field. Used ferromagnetic material is in the form of rod and kept in parallel to the length. This phenomenon can be used to produce ultrasonic waves. Frequencies up to 100 KHz can be obtained by using this method. Magnetostriction Oscillator: Figure 3: Magnetostriction Oscillator

ultrasonic waves. Ferromagnetic material is produced using nickel material. As appeared in Figure 1.4, a short nickel bar XY set in a solenoid took care of by a D. C. flexibly it polarizes the pole for all time. Two curls L1 and L2 are wrapped round the bar and are associated in the network and anode current of a triode individually. At the point when a high recurrence current streams in an anode circuit, a substituting attractive field is created in the curl L2. It produces changes in the length of the bar making it pack and stretch then again and therefore setting it into vibrations. It causes a variety in attractive motion through the framework curl L1. Along these lines, an initiated e. m. f. is set up in L1 which follow up on the framework and produces intensified current varieties in L2. The estimation of the current and henceforth the recurrence of swaying anode current, can be balanced by changing the estimation of a variable capacitor C and in this way full vibrations might be energized. Ultrasonics is accordingly delivered in the encompassing medium. Ultrasonic influxes of recurrence 25,000 Hz can be delivered by this strategy by a nickel pole of 10 cm length. b) Piezoelectric Generator: At the point when certain precious stones (quartz, tourmaline and Rochelle salt) are exposed to pressure, they show inverse electrical charges on their inverse bringing about a possible distinction. On the other hand, if inverse sides of the precious stone are kept up at various electric possibilities by applying a voltage, at that point the gem cut extends or agreements. This marvel is known as piezo electric impact which is utilized in the creation of ultrasonic influxes of high recurrence. Piezoelectric Effect The production of ultrasonic waves by piezoelectric generator depends upon the piezoelectric effect. Consider a natural quartz crystal which is a very common form of silica and is found in the form of a hexagonal prism with hexagonal pyramids at both the ends as shown in Figure 1.5. The axis joining the two crowns or pointed ends of the crystal is known as the optical or Z-axis. Figure 1.5 and 1.6 shows a section of the crystal at right angles to the Z-axis. Three axes XX, X‘X‘, X‘‘X‘‘ passing through the corners of the hexagon are known as the X-axis or electrical axes. The three axes YY, Y‘Y‘ and Y‖Y‖ which are perpendicular to the faces of the crystal and are at right angles to the respective electrical axes are known as the Y-axis or mechanical axes. The three axes ZZ, Z‘Z‘ and Z‘‘Z‘‘ which are perpendicular to the faces of the crystal and are at right angles to the respective electrical axes are known as the Z-axis or optical axes. Figure 4 : Piezoelectric Quartz Crystal Figure 5 X-Y axes of a Piezoelectric Quartz Crystal At the point when a crystalline material, for example, quartz or tourmaline, is exposed to mechanical worry along Y-hub, electrical charges show up on the essences of the gem opposite to that pivot. On the other hand, if electrical charges are put along faces opposite to X-pivot, a mechanical strain and change in measurements are created along Y-hub. This property by which electrical and mechanical properties are interconnected in a gem is known as the piezoelectric impact.

LIQUID MIXTURES

Fluid blends have pulled in significant consideration because of their uncommon conduct (Ewing et al 1970). In most substance forms, fluid blends discovered more reasonable applications as opposed to unadulterated fluid. They are basic in practically all enterprises and every organic science. Synthetic procedure businesses, materials are regularly dealt with in fluid structure and as a result, the physical, concoction, and transport properties of liquids expect a lot of significance. Fluid blends in process ventures are frequently isolated into their segments by mass exchange tasks, for example, refining and extraction. The structure of such activities requires quantitative appraisals of the properties of fluid blends. As of late there has been extensive advancement in the examinations on intermolecular collaborations and the inside structure of fluid blends. This is connected with the chance of use of results for understanding of issues associated with the inside wide scope of arrangement and temperature are important wellspring of data that might be utilized to analyze the connection between the inward structure of the framework and its physical properties. The adjustment in focus and shifting temperature influences compressibility of arrangement, which gives thought regarding atomic communications in fluid blends.

From these exploratory information, they determined adiabatic compressibility, obvious molar volume, clear molar adiabatic compressibility, fractional molar volume and halfway molar adiabatic compressibility, at unending weakening for all the ternary frameworks. The information have been deciphered as far as solute–solute and solute–dissolvable communications. These outcomes uncover that dipole–dipole and particle dissolvable cooperation are solid in glycine–fluid MgCl2 than in glycine–watery NaCl. Shashi Kant et al., 2011 estimated the thickness and ultrasonic speed estimations for magnesium chloride (MgCl2), calcium chloride (CaCl2) and strontium chloride (SrCl2) in 2% fructose arranged in 0.01m fluid NaCl at temperatures 303.15, 308.15, 313.15 and 318.15K. These boundaries were utilized to figure different thermodynamic and acoustic boundaries, for example, clear molar volume (Iv), restricting evident molar volume (Iv0), constraining obvious molar volume expansibility (IE0), adiabatic compressibility (E), intermolecular free length (Lf), unwinding time (W) and Gibb's free vitality of enactment. The outcomes have been examined as far as particle dissolvable, particle collaborations. Further structure making/breaking conduct of MgCl2, CaCl2 and SrCl2 has been examined and structure breaking conduct of these metal chlorides in fructose included with fluid NaCl has likewise been accounted for.
