“…The clay minerals behave as a nucleation site for the framework of polypropylene-maleic anhydride, although their existence has no effect on the sequential rate of growth or total crystallisation rate. Nucleation is one of the most successful methods for controlling the amount of polymeric chains complexation into silicate chambers, and thus the mechanical properties of polypropylene/clay nanomaterials [30,31]. The melt blended of polypropylene/clay nanomaterials was addressed.…”

Polymers play a vital role in material science; they have been utilised for more than a century. Cosmetics, geotextiles, aircraft, and automobiles are just a few of the sectors that employ polypropylene. The addition of appropriate clay, can improve the mechanical and barrier characteristics of the material. This chapter deals with various types of fabrication as extrusion process by using twin screw extruder, solution blending method, melt-blending method, in-situ polymerization method, direct melt compounding, ultra sound-aided extrusion and master batch dilution. To characterize the polypropylene/clay nano composites by different property such as mechanical, thermal, tribological, optical, viscoelasticity, viscoplasticity, creep failure, hygrothermal, rheological and morphological.

“…Initially, the precision agriculture field used ground-buried sensors to identify organic matter in the soil, but nowadays, satellites, aircraft, and vehicle-mounted sensors are employed (Ramesh & Rajeshkumar, 2021). This innovation has made the real-time monitoring of soil to be possible at large.…”

Soil sustains the life of both animals and plants in the world. Most agriculture activities are conducted in soil. Real-time soil parameter data were collected in three villages of Kyela district (Kisare, Lupaso, and Mabunga) lowland zones during the September 2023 dry season. Observed real-time parameters were soil pH, Electric conductivity, temperature, Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Potassium, and humidity. Soil sensor, multifunctional converter, solar panel, 4G WIFI, and cloud platform (USRIOT) were used. The result shows that nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, pH, and Electric conductivity have a positive correlation with each other while demonstrating a negative correlation to pH and temperature. Although outliers were observed in real-time nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and electric conductivity datasets, they denote a wide variation of such parameters in selected villages. Furthermore, the selected study area demonstrates a relatively low amount of phosphorus compared to other macronutrients
