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...

Photothermal stability and, therefore, consistency of both optical absorption and photoacoustic response of the plasmonic nanoabsorbers is critical for successful photoacoustic image-guided photothermal therapy. In this study, silica-coated gold nanorods were developed as a multifunctional molecular imaging and therapeutic agent suitable for image-guided photothermal therapy. The optical proper...

silica chloride converted benzyl or tert-butyl esters to the corresponding acid chlorides and alkyl chlorides. it also converted benzyl or tert-butyl phenyl ethers to the corresponding allcyl chlorides and phenol

In this paper, we present the self assembly procedure as well as experimental results of a novel method for constructing well defined arrangements of self assembly metallic nano particles into sophisticated nano structures. The self assembly concept is based on focused ion beam (FIB) technology, where metallic nano particles are self assembled due to implantation of positive gallium ions into t...

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were used as a nano-carrier/amplifier to develop a novel MSN-SERS probe for DNA MTase detection. High sensitivity, good selectivity, and rapid analysis are achieved.

Many attempts have been made to fabricate various types of inorganic nanoparticle-filled polymers (filler/polymer nanocomposites) by a mechanical or chemical approach. However, these approaches require modification of the nanofiller surfaces and/or complicated polymerization reactions, making them unsuitable for industrial-scale production of the nanocomposites. The author and coworkers have pr...

Nano science and technology is a new field of emergence in materials science and engineering, which forms the basis for evolution of novel technological materials. Nano technology finds application in various fields of science and technology. This article presents a critical review of the literature on the influence of nano silica in concrete and its application for the development of sustainab...

The solid-phase synthesis of 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones was achieved using silica-bound benzoyl chloride (SBBC) as dehydrating agent in reaction with 2-acylaminobenzoic acids. The silica-grafted reagent (SBBC) was simply recovered after reaction and reused several times.

Micropatterns of silica were generated under biocompatible conditions by a combination of microcontact printing (muCP), layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly, and biomimetic silicification. Quaternary amine-containing poly(diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride) induced polycondensation of silicic acid, resulting in spatioselective formation of silica micropatterns. Scale bar: 10 microm.
