A new concept of designing and synthesizing highly dispersed ionic liquids was developed through physical confinement or encapsulation of them into silica gel matrix with sol-gel process. A series of silica gel confined ionic liquids were synthesized through this process and characterized by diffuse-reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) and FTRaman analysis, and abnormal ...

The effect of different parameters including: nano silica content, curing temperature, type of hardener, and flash-off time on mechanical and optical properties of polyurethane PU based clearcoat was investigated via standard Taguchi L9 method. Dispersion of nano silica in the resultant nanocomposites was explored by scanning electron microscopy SEM. SEM images showed a fine dispersion through ...

Abstract Self compacting concrete (SCC) is a new construction material in the world. The aim of this research is to construct self compacting concrete with high compressive strength using combination of nano silica and micro silica. For this purpose, nano silica, micro silica, Portland cement type 2, superplasticizer (SP), and gravel and sand have been used. Three different groups of samples wi...

In this study two series of self compacting concrete mixtures were prepared with 100% coarse recycled concrete aggregates and different percentages of 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% fine recycled concrete aggregates. In series I and II the water to binder ratios were 0.50 and 0.45, respectively. The cement content was kept 350 3 m kg for those mixtures that don't have any Nano-Silica. To impro...

in this investigation, nano silica chloride (nano sio2cl) has been found to be efficient, chemoselective and recyclable catalyst for facile and simple synthesis of germinal diacetates from aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes in shorter reaction durations. the products were obtained in high to excellent yields. this work consistently has the advantages of excellent yields, short reaction time,...

a simple method has been developed for the preconcentration of copper(ii) based on the adsorption of its modified nano polyacrylonitrile fiber. modified nano polyacrylonitrile fiber (panf) was prepared by adding of acrylic fibers to msethanolamine (mma) with different concentration solutions. the stability of a chemically modified nano polyacrylonitrile fiber especially in concentrated hydrochl...
