Highly Efficient Arsenic Removal Using a Composite of Ultrafine Magnetite Nanoparticles Interlinked by Silane Coupling Agents

Arsenic (As) contamination in groundwater is a great environmental health concern and is often the result of contact between groundwater and arsenic-containing rocks or sediments and from variation of pH and redox potentials in the subsurface. In the past decade, magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) have been shown to have high adsorption activity towards As. Alerted by the reported cytotoxicity of 5...

Surface Reactions on Thin Layers of Silane Coupling Agents

The reactivity of immobilized functional groups in thin layers of (3-aminopropy1)triethoxy~ilane (APS), (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxy~ilane, (3-bromopropyl)trimethoxysilane, and (8-bromoody1)trimethoxysilane on oxidized aluminum substrates was studied with reflection-adsorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIR), optical ellipsometry and contact-angle measurements. Mass changes on the surface associat...

Surface modification of ZnO nano-particles with Trimetoxyvinyl Silane and Oleic Acid and studying their dispersion in organic media

Zinc oxide nano-particles with the average diameter of about 25 nm were modified with different mole ratios of trimetoxyvinyl silane (TMVS) and oleic acid, as coupling agents, in order to modify their surface properties and render them more hydrophobic. Then, dispersibility of the surface modified nano-particles was examined in some monomers with different levels of hydrophobicity, including me...
