We report a general method to synthesize gold nanocrystal micelles with organo-silane headgroups. The method involves encapsulation of monodisperse, hydrophobic gold nanocrystals within the core of a micelle of an amphiphilic silane precursor. Formation and stability of monodisperse gold NC micelles have been confirmed using UV-visible spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Self-ass...

In this paper the results concerning the synthesis of magnetite (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles (NPs), their functionalization using silane derivatives, such as (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPTMS), and their exhaustive morphological and physical characterization by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) with energy dispersion X-ray spectrome...

Nanoscale organofunctional silanes have been developed, tested and successfully applied to protect stone buildings in Europe against climatic effects since the 1860s. The same nanotechnologies can also be used pavement engineering create strong chemical bonds between a stabilising agent granular material. attachment of silane material changes surface become hydrophobic, thereby considerably red...

Functionalization of silica surfaces using organo-silanes is highly sensitive to reaction conditions. Silica-coated nanoparticles were functionalized with propyl-sulfonic acid groups (PS) under different synthesis conditions including, various solvents (Ethanol, methanol, acetonitrile, and toluene), water content in the reaction media (0% to 50%), 3-mercaptopropyl-trimethoxysilane concentration...

Nitrate-containing compounds are considered as groundwater contaminants, the concentration of whichhas been growing in these resources during recent years. As a result, it seems necessary to use effectivemethods to remove nitrate from water and wastewater. Adsorption is generally considered moreeconomical in water treatment compared to other feasible a...

Abstract Mg alloys are considered a promising alternative to use as biodegradable implants. However, the main limitations of these high susceptibility hydrogen evolution and corrosion. Consequently, it is necessary control corrosion rate through surface treatment techniques. In this regard, double layer system, based on first deposition MgO coating subsequent an organo-silane sol-gel (anodized/...
