  • Suitability of using al sludge waste to produce paving block 
    Wijethunga, KHDL; Liyanage, DPLNM; Guluwita, SP [Conference-Abstract]
    Aluminum sludge is a by-product of water treatment plants that use aluminum salts as a primary coagulant. Researchers examine the influence of dry aluminum sludge as a partial Portland cement type I replacement on the ...
  • Synthesis and characterisation of two-roll mill processed natural rubber/graphene oxide modified silica nanocomposits 
    Jayakody, JACA; Liyanage, NMVK [Conference-Abstract]
    Tyre compounds consist of different additives such as antioxidants, fillers, plasticizing agents, vulcanising agents etc. in addition to natural rubber (NR). Two types of fillers; carbon black and silica, are used in rubber ...
  • Synthesis and characterization of natural rubber/ silica/graphene-based-materials nanocomposites (latex based) 
    Madushanka, PHHP; Kumarawadu, PD; Liyanage, NMVK [Conference-Abstract]
    Silica is used as a filler for reinforcement of Natural Rubber Latex (NRL) for non-black products. But silica is an inorganic compound and NRL is organic. Furthermore, silica has high filler to filler interactions so that ...
  • Synthesis and characterization of TiO2 nanotube arrays 
    Chandanayaka, ISP; Madumadawa, GPDLP; Sitinamaluwa, HS [Conference-Abstract]
    Ti02 is a versatile material that has found applications in a diverse range of devices and applications such as solar cells, photocatalysts, gas sensors, photovoltaics, hydrogen storage, Li-ion batteries etc. In recent ...
  • Synthesis and morphological characterization of TiO2 nanotube arrays 
    Rajapakse, HD; Rathhnayaka, VWSG; Sitinamaluwa, HS; Jayasundara, DRT [Conference-Abstract]
    TiO2 nanotube arrays have recently gained increased attention due to their unique properties such as high specific surface area, higher charge transport capability and excellent chemical and mechanical properties. It is ...
  • Synthesis of calcium oxide nanoparticles from waste eggshells for seed priming 
    Jayaneththi, Y; Nipunika, U; Galhenage, AS [Conference-Abstract]
    Environmental pollution and scarcity of natural sources are two major problems that society faces at the present. Eggshells are a waste that is discarded without any value which contributes to the environmental pollution. ...
  • Synthesis of cellulose based solution to fabricate nanofibers by electrospinning technique 
    Kantha, WDY; Madusanka, SDC; Samarasekara, AMPB; Amarasinghe, DAS [Conference-Abstract]
    This study reports on the synthesis of cellulose-based solution suitable for electrospinning. Cellulose is a biodegradable and renewable resource with excellent mechanical properties, making it an attractive material for ...
  • Synthesis of fluoride-containing varnish for dental caries 
    Mendis, WVH; Madushan, NLC; Herath, EMUCK; Galhenage, AS [Conference-Abstract]
    Fluoride-containing varnishes are applied on teeth surfaces to prevent forming of dental caries and to treat already available caries, especially in children. Dental caries is permanent damage or decay caused by the ...
  • Synthesis of titania nanotube arrays for supercapacitor applications 
    Ambegoda, VP; Sitinamaluwa, HS [Conference-Abstract]
    This research aimed to increase the capacitance of Titania nanotubes (TNTs) through improved electrical conductivity. The synthesis of Titania nanotubes (TNTs) was carried out using an electrochemical anodization method. ...
  • Thermoplastic polymer modified bitumen 
    Ranasinghe, HMLU; Madushanka, RD; Liyanage, NMVK [Conference-Abstract]
    Performance of Bitumen modified with thermoplastics based on natural rubber(NR) and Low density polyethylene(LDPE) was investigated. Blending of NR and LDPE in different ratios was done by using a plastic extruder at ...
  • Use of Aruwakkalu sand for medium strength concrete 
    Jayarathne, STMP; Rathnayake, RM; Guluwita, SP [Conference-Abstract]
    Cement, sand, and aggregate are the basic needs for any construction industry. Sand is a prime material used for preparation of mortar and concrete. Now a day’s due to the excessive use of sand mining from the rivers for ...
