Effect of Treated Polyethylene Waste on some Mechanical Properties of Cement Mortar

Abstract: In the present work, the properties of Polyethylene Waste cement mortar containing Polyethylene Waste treated by a reactive material are tested and compared with normal Polyethylene Waste and normal cement mortar. The Polyethylene, which is cured by a different reactive material such as: (cement, a fly ash and silica fume) is used as fine as aggregate a volumetric fractional replacing of the sand in a cement mortar. The percent of replacement was 10% by volume, density, compressive strength, modulus of rupture, and absorption are tested for all mixes at variable ages. The current results display that the cure of Polyethylene by cement were significantly improves the characteristics of Polyethylene cement mortar. Moreover, the results show that all treatment improved properties of cement mortar as a compared with Polyethylene without treatment.

Craniofacial Anomaly Association with the Internal Malformations in the Pediatric Age Group in Al-Fallujah City-Iraq.

Abstract: Context. Craniofacial anomalies (CFA) are a major cause of infant mortality and childhood morbidity. They may be simple or multiple and vary in their clinical importance. Objectives. To estimate the prevalence of craniofacial anomalies among Iraqi people and its association with other congenital malformations. Methods. A hospital-based cohort study. It was conducted in Iraq, Fallujah city from Jan 2019-April 2019. The pediatric age group below 16 years attending the consultation clinic. Results. The prevalence rate of craniofacial anomalies was 2%. There were 43 (54%) males and 37 (46%) females. A 55 cases (69%) out of total 80 cases have an association with other internal congenital malformations, and 25 cases (31%) have no association. Those associated internal malformations were categorized according to their types into congenital heart disease 33(60%), Renal diseases 9 (16%), CNS anomalies 8(15%), and GIT anomalies 5(9%). Conclusions. Craniofacial anomalies showed a relatively higher prevalence rate in comparison to other studies worldwide. It was found that the majority of craniofacial anomalies might be associated with other congenital systemic malformations. Furthermore, the necessary actions to identify the frequency and risk factors associated with craniofacial anomalies in the Iraqi population are emphasized to put a better strategy to establish future preventive programs and treatment.
