Abstract To prepare lyophobic magnetic nanoparticles (LMNs) with core/shell structure to be applied in silicone emulsion defoamer, covered silica (MNS) were prepared a one-step process from FeCl 3 · 6H 2 O, 4H O and tetraethyl orthosilicate then modified poly (methylhydrosiloxane). X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscope (FTIR)...

Titania coated silica spheres (SiO2@TiO2) prepared by heterocoagulation of silica and titania nano-particles were investigated as catalyst in he photodegradation of rhodamine B (RB) in aqueous solution. The silica spheres were prepared by the well-known Stöber method and titania ol by a hydrolysis–condensation reaction in acidic media. The uncoated and coated particles were characterized by zet...

FMLs are considered by many industries, including the aerospace industry, due to their important advantages such as high strength, low weight, corrosion and moisture resistance, good fatigue properties, and so on. The purpose of the present study is to improve the mechanical properties of the panel through the addition of nanoscale by improving the structure of the FML. For this purpose, the pe...

Multifunctional silica nano-vehicles (SiO2@indol-IL) and magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@indol-IL) were constructed through the Schiff bases condensation of indole-3-carboxaldehyde and 4-acetyl-N-allyl pyridinium chloride (ILs) with the amine groups of silica and magnetic nanoparticles. SiO2@indol-IL can inhibit the proliferation of HepG-2 cells in 48 h. Fe3O4@indol-IL can mimic the function of c...

Synthesis of bis sulfamic acid-grafted on silica-coated nano-Fe3O4 particles (MNPs-TBSA) as a novel core/shell hybrid organic-inorganic magnetic nanostructures, and their performance as a retrievable heterogeneous acidic catalyst is disclosed. The catalytic performance of this novel material was studied for the green synthesis of pharmaceutically valuable polyhydroquinoline and tetrahydrobenzop...

The design of magnetic nanoparticles by incorporation of iron oxide colloids within gelatine/silica hybrid nanoparticles has been performed for the first time through a nanoemulsion route using the encapsulation of pre-formed magnetite nanocrystals and the in situ precipitation of ferrous/ferric ions. The first method leads to bi-continuous hybrid nanocomposites containing a limited amount of w...

In this paper, covalent immobilization of beta amylase enzyme on the surface of modified magnetic nano particles (ZnFe2O4@SiO2-NH2) is reported. For doing so, at first, the magnetic nanoparticles of ZnFe2O4 were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method and then tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxy sil...

The magnetic properties of calcined cobalt ferrite formed by nano-crystalline powders have been compared by two different methods (co-precipitation and hydrothermal). The structural properties of the produced powders were investigated by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the formation of cobalt ferrite spinel structures is effected by changing me...

in this research, the effect of different biopolymers such as polyethylene glycol (peg) and polyvinylalcohol (pva) on synthesis and characterization of polymer/cobalt ferrite (cf) nano-composites bymechanical alloying method has been systematically investigated. the structural, morphological andmagnetic properties changes during mechanical milling were investigated by x-ray diffraction (xrd),fo...

Nanoscale Ga particles down to 5 nm were fabricated by an explosion via an in situ electron-beam irradiation on microscale silica-covered Ga balls in a transmission electron microscope. The explosion is confirmed to be a Coulomb explosion because it occurs on the surface rather than in the whole body of the insulating silica-covered Ga micro-balls, and on the pure Ga nano-balls on the edge of c...
