Moisture absorption and its effect on the electrical properties of high silica fabric

High silica fabric with a silica content >98% can be prepared by removing the non-siliceous ions from the E-glass fabric using HCl as the leachant. The presence of Si-OH groups makes the material hydrophilic. The extent of moisture absorption depends on the extent of leaching. The moisture present in the leached fabric decreases the volume and surface resistivity values

Abstracts of National Conference on Biological, Biochemical, Biomedical, Bioenergy, and Environmental Biotechnology

This book contains the abstracts of the papers presented at the National Conference on Biological, Biochemical, Biomedical, Bioenergy, and Environmental Biotechnology (NCB4EBT-2021) Organized by the Department of Biotechnology, National Institute of Technology Warangal, India held on 29–30 January 2021. This conference is the first of its kind organized by NIT-W which covered an array of interesting topics in biotechnology. This makes it a bit special as it brings together researchers from different disciplines of biotechnology, which in turn will also open new research and cooperation fields for them.
