The effect of cold drawn on the mechanical properties and structural defects of 6201 alloy used as conductor cables was studied. The effect of heat treatment at 350 and 500 °C after deformation as well as deformed at room temperature (RT) was investigated in order to identify an optimized heat treatment for different cold drawn samples. The mechanical properties and microstructure were determined by using Vickers micro hardness (Hv) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The Evaluation of three distinguished stages observed in this investigation was discussed by using positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) technique. The present work demonstrates that PAL can provide valuable information about the microstructure of cold drawn 6201 alloy.

Objective:To evaluate and compare the antioxidant activity,total phenolic contents(TPCs) and in vitro antidiabetic activity of various pits extracts obtained from five Omani date ***:Sun-dried mature fruits of five Omani date varieties,namely,Fardh,Naghal,Khalas,Khinazi and Khasab were purchased from the local market in Muscat,Oman in the month of September *** seed extracts ***,ethanol,methanol and acetone were prepared for each date variety and their antioxidant activities were investigated by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl,hydrogen peroxide scavenging method and reducing power assay method,*** vitro antidiabetic activity of the date pit extracts was evaluated by measuring their inhibitory effect on a-glucosidase and aamylase *** were also quantified ***:The results indicated that TPC of date seeds was solvent ***,ethanol and methanol were found to be significantly better solvents than water in extracting phenolic compounds from the date *** extracts exhibited moderate to good in vitro antioxidant activity and increased reducing *** all date pit extracts,water extract exhibited significant in vitro antidiabetic activity in comparison to standard drug,***:The present study confirms that disposed waste of Omani dates is a rich source of dietary antioxidant because of its high *** pits due to their inhibitory effects on a-glucosidase and a-amylase level could be used as a monotherapy along with an appropriate diabetic diet and exercise or might be in conjunction with antidiabetic therapy to manage and prevent progression of diabetes.
