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...

This paper investigates how the composition of Portland composite cements affects their chloride-binding properties. Hydrated cement pastes prepared with a reference and containing metakaolin and/or silica fume were exposed to NaCl or CaCl2 solutions. Chloride-binding isotherms determined hydrate assemblage was investigated using TGA, XRD, 27Al NMR, 29Si NMR thermodynamic modelling. Compared pa...

Synthetic approaches for new nanocomposite materials with relatively high cholinesterase activity have been developed. The peculiarity of the formation of such systems is the introduction of cholinesterase into polymer with subsequent incorporation on the ready-made silica particles and into the polysiloxane matrixes during sol-gel synthesis. Evaluation of the cholinesterase activity has been f...

Zinc chloride silica gel-supported was found to be an efficient, inexpensive catalyst for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxodecahydroacridines via one-pot three-component condensation of aryl aldehydes, dimedone, andammonium acetate in high yields. The described novel synthetic method propose several advantages of safety, mild condition, short reaction times, high yields, simplicityand easy workup comp...

Trimethylsilylation of a variety of alcohols and phenols, in the presence of silica chloride, using hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) in solution and under solvent-free conditions is reported. Trimethylsilyl ethers were formed in excellent yields both for aliphatic alcohols and phenols without having an electron-withdrawing group. In addition, SiO2-Cl can be recovered and reused after drying.

The adsorption behavior of reverse micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) onto porous silica gels of various pore sizes has been investigated. A decrease in the amount of CTAC in the reversed micellar bulk solution in chloroform/water added to the silica gel in a column was observed, indicating the CTAC adsorption onto the silica surface. The adsorption profile obtained showed a max...

An advanced SiO2–lignin hybrid material was obtained and tested as a novel poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) filler. The processing of compounds of poly(vinyl chloride) in the form of a dry blend with silica–lignin hybrid material and, separately, with the two components from which that material was prepared, was performed in a Brabender mixing chamber. An analysis was made of processing (mass melt fl...

Iron oxide-silica nanoparticles (IOSi-NPs) were prepared from a mixture of ferrous chloride tetrahydrate and ferric chloride hexahydrate dropped into a silica xerogel composite. The structure and morphology of the synthesized maghemite nanoparticles into the silica xerogel were analysed by X-ray diffraction measurements, scanning electron microscopy equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spec...
