The development of synthetic process for hollow silica materials is an issue of considerable topical interest. While a number of chemical routes are available and are extensively used, the diameter of hollow silica often large than 50 nm. Here, we report on a facial route to synthesis ultrafine hollow silica nanoparticles (the diameter of ca. 24 nm) with high surface area by using cetyltrimethy...

We report on the fabrication of desired magneto-photonic devices by a low one-photon absorption (LOPA) direct laser writing (DLW) technique on a photocurable nanocomposite consisting of magnetite ( Fe 3 O 4 ) nanoparticles and a commercial SU-8 photoresist. The magnetic nanocomposite was synthesized by mixing Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles with different kinds of SU-8 photoresists. We demonstrated that...

this study aims at exploring an effective route in the in situ graft polymerization of aniline from fe3o4 nanoparticles. to this goal, fe3o4 magnetic nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation method using ammonia solution as the precipitating agent, and were characterized by fourier transform infrared (ft-ir) spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd) and transmission electron microscopy (tem)....

Catalytic emulsion polymerization of ethylene with nickel catalysts in the presence of silica nanoparticles affords stable dispersions of silica/polyethylene nanocomposite particles. The modification of the surface of silica particles by grafting upon their surface of octenylor octylsilanes is a prerequisite for obtaining composites. Different morphologies of composites particles were observed ...

magnetite (feo.fe2o3) nanoparticles immobilized on silica and modified by treatment apolaccase were used to decolorize the industrial wastewater from basic red 9 (br9 by way of fenton and fenton-like processes. the surface changes to the silica were determined by scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. th...

a new hybrid nanomaterial was developed by immobilization of phosphomolybdate anions on the surface of modified magnetite nanoparticles with quaternary phosphonium cations. silica coated magnetic nanoparticles supported phosphonium cations, ph3p+-scmnps, were prepared by covalent attachment of chloropropylsilyl groups on the surface of silica coated magnetite nanoparticles and next reaction wit...

Lamellar nanocomposites based on semiconducting polymers incorporated into layered inorganic matrices are prepared by the co-assembly of organic and inorganic precursors. Semiconducting polymer-incorporated silica is prepared by introducing the semiconducting polymers into a tetrahydrofuran (THF)/water homogeneous sol solution containing silica precursor species and a surface-active agent. Semi...

Because of their magnetic properties, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have numerous diverse biomedical applications. In addition, because of their ability to penetrate bacteria and biofilms, nanoantimicrobial agents have become increasingly popular for the control of infectious diseases. Here, MNPs were prepared through an iron salt coprecipitation method in an alkaline medium, followed by a chit...

Five types of nanofillers, namely, silica, surface-silylated silica, alumina, surface-silylated alumina, and boron nitride, were tested in this study. Nanocomposites composed of an epoxy/amine resin and one of the five types of nanoparticles were tested as dielectrics with a focus on (i) the surface functionalization of the nanoparticles and (ii) the water absorption by the materials. The dispe...
