The Nature of Silanol Groups on the Surfaces of Silica, Modified Silica and Some Silica Based Materials

The effect of surface silanol groups on the deposition of apatite onto silica surfaces: a computer simulation study.

Computer modelling techniques were employed to investigate the effect of surface silanol groups on the strength of adhesion of apatite thin films to silica surfaces. To this end, we have studied a series of silica surfaces with different silanol densities and calculated their interaction with apatite thin films. Our findings indicate that apatite does not attach strongly to surface hydroxy grou...

the effect of authentic listening materials on the listening proficiency of efl learners in the intermediate level

having conducted the experiment and analysed the data, the researcher computed the groups mean scores and variances for the test relating to the research question. as the final atep, a t-test was conodonted for the hypothesis. as noted earlier, the significance level was determined at .05 and .01 respectively. the observed t-value was higher than the critical t-value at. 5 and .01 levels. conse...

the effect of esp materials on medical studentsreading proficiency

چکیده این تحقیق " مواد درسی " را به عنوان یکی از بحث برانگیزترین موضوعات آموزش زبان تلقی کرده و درتلاش است به سه سوال عمده پاسخ دهد: 1) آیا بکارگیری جزوات گرداوری شده توسط گروهی از مدرسین تاثیر بسزایی در میزان توانش خواندن و درک متون انگلیسی دانشجویان پزشکی دارد؟ 2) آیا استفاده از مواد درسی اصلی( بین المللی )، توانش خواندن و درک متون انگلیسی دانشجویان پزشکی را به طور چشمگیری تحت تاثیر قرار م...

OPINION ON Silica, Hydrated Silica, and Silica Surface Modified with Alkyl Silylates (nano form)

Heterogeneous Nucleation of Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate on Modified Silica Surfaces.

Heterogeneous nucleation of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, CaHPO4•2H2O (DCPD) was studied on untreated planar fused silica and on three modified silica surfaces: octadecylsilyl (OTS) modified silica, human serum albumin treated OTS silica, and UV-oxidized 3-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilyl (MTS) modified silica. The supersaturation ratio of calcium and phosphate solution with respect to DCPD was ke...
