Abstract: Efforts have been carried out in order to use microsilica to develop a forsterite bond rather than other types of binders in the basic refractory castables. According to the higher drying rate and sinterability of colloidal silica, it has been proposed in the recent years. In the present work, effects of replacement of microsilica by colloidal silica evolution of forsterite bond have ...

Abstract:Nanostructured titania was synthesized by colloidal and polymeric sol-gel routes. Stable colloidal and polymeric titania sols were prepared by adjusting the proper values of the acid/alkoxide and the water/alkoxide molar ratios. The properties of sols were determined by dynamic light scattering technique and synthesized titania was characterized by thermogravimetry and differential the...

An in vitro study was conducted to know the veridical properties of silver nanoparticles synthesized from   locally available white button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus). The characterized colloidal silver nanoparticles exhibited as an excellent virucidal property on viral strain Bacteriophage. The viral inactivation process was increased with increasing the concentration of colloidal s...

silicon and aluminum sources are most important reactants in the synthesis of zeolite. the use of the silicon source has an important effect on the crystallization of zeolites. also, it can change the properties of the end product. this work reports the influence of three common commercial silica sources such as colloidal silica (ludox am-30), fumed silica and water glass on the crystallinity o...

In this study, colloidal germanium nanocrystals were synthesized by a simple and novel method, and their optical properties were also studied. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a surface modifier was used to control the optical properties of colloidal Ge nanocrystals. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was performed to identify the various functional groups present in the sample. ...

2 Magnetic and optical properties of liquid crystalline colloidal particles 33 2. Introduction This work is concerned with the solution of an important problem of influence of a magnetic field on rotational diffusion in anisotropic colloidal solutions. It describes the results of experimental investigations of the author carried out using the method of diffusing-wave spectroscopy and the method...
