This paper studies the recent investigations and development of combined application of Pozzolanic additions Nano-Silica (NS) and Fly Ash (FA) on the strength properties of concrete for sub sequential growth of concrete industry. This investigation not only saves the natural resources but also controls the environmental pollution by usage of wastes. The limited work is done on partial replaceme...

An efficient green route for the preparation of naphthoxazinones, applying a three-component one-pot condensation reaction of 2-naphthol, aromatic aldehyde and urea in the presence of nano silica supported ferric chloride under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The present procedure offers several advantages such as short reaction time, simple workup, recovery and reusability of the c...

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...

A nano-composite powder composed of silica and carbon with a unique property could be prepared from a mixture of a silicate compound and an epoxy compound, in which the silica within the nano-composite powder has a BET surface area of as high as greater than 800m2/g although the nano-composite powder has a BET surface area of less than 10m2/g. It was estimated that the silica and the carbon are...

the effects of adding nano-silica particles on the compressive strength and water permeability of concrete and its comparison with that of micro-silica were investigated in this work. the effect of combination of nano- silica and micro-silica were also studied in this work, which resulted in an increase in compressive strength of concrete in comparison with other concrete specimens tested in th...

Platelets were coated with 78-nm silica nanoparticles, 45-nm fluorescent nanospheres, or bovine immunoglobulin G (IgG) through layer-by-layer assembly by alternate adsorption with oppositely charged linear polyions. Sequential deposition on platelet surfaces of cationic poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) and anionic poly(styrene sulfonate) was followed by adsorption of nanoparticles or immu...

One distinct concentration of copper ions was embedded into the silica matrix to xerogel form using copper source Cu(NO3)2∙3H2O. The xerogel samples were prepared with using hydrolysis and condensation reactions of TetraEthyl Ortho-Silicate (TEOS) by the sol-gel method. In this investigation, new molar ratio of H2</su...
