Periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs), reported for the first time in 1999, constitute a new branch of organic-inorganic hybrid materials with high-ordered structures, uniform pore size and homogenous distribution of organic bridges into a silica framework. Unlike conventional mesoporous silicas, these materials offer the possibility to adjust the surface (hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity) and ...

in this study, a novel solid dendrimer amine (hyperbranched polymers) was prepared using mesoporous carbon nitride functionalized by melamine based dendrimer amines. this adsorbent was denoted mda-mcn-1. the process was stepwise synthesis and hard-templating method using mesoporous silica sba-15 as a template. cyanuric chloride and n,n-diisopropylethylamine (dipea, merck) were used for function...

Both clays and calcium silicate hydrates(the main hydration products of Portland cements) exhibit a microstructure made up of lamellar particles. The microscopic mechanism responsible for the macroscopic creep of such materials is often described as the relative sliding of the sheets. This paper proposes a micromechanical approach to estimate the macroscopic creep behavior rising from this micr...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reuse of desulfurization slag in cement clinker production and its influence on the formation of clinker phases. The desulfurization slag that mainly contained Ca and Si was identified as non-toxic, and thus it should be suitable to be reused in clinker production. The addition of desulfurization slag increased the melt phase during clinkerizatio...

A number of root-repair materials have been developed by various manufacturers, including Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) that has adequate biological and physical properties of a good root repair material [1,2]. MTA has been used for apexification, perforation repair, root resorption, and as a root-end filling material. The main ingredients of MTA are silicate oxide, tricalcium oxide, tricalc...

grinding (solvent-free) method was used as a superior technique to prepare mesoporous photocatalysts of zno, zns, zno / zns, cdo, cds and cdo / cds-sba-15. in this technique, the nitrate, acetate and chloride salts of zinc and/or cadmium were grinded with as-synthesized sba-15 as a mesoporous material. the controllable sulfurationis was used to prepare zns, zno/zns, cds and cdo/cds-sba-15 at te...

Silicate glass has been used for long time because of its advantages from material's viewpoint. In this paper, we report the observation of Pockels effect by Mach-Zehnder interferometer in polycrystalline ceramics made from a ternary silicate glass via crystallization due to heat-treatment, i.e., glass-ceramics. Since the silicate system is employed as the precursor, merits of glass material ar...
